Is my gaming PC configuration optimal?

I would like to get a new gaming PC soon and would like to know how to find my current gaming PC configuration. The new gaming PC, I would mainly play for gambling (Fortnite, GTA 5, Far Cry 5) and occasionally usual work on the PC (for surfing the Internet, office work, listening to music, etc.).

I have a few questions about this:

Would all the hardware work the same way, say. Would the power supply range in terms of performance, does the RAM fit on the motherboard, would the CPU cooler fit, etc?
Is it worth it to wait for the new AMD Ryzen 3000?
Do I have to pay attention to the purchase of the gaming PC?
If all cables are present, e.g. SATA cables?
How many years would the gaming PC be enough for me to upgrade to the next or when would I definitely have to upgrade if nothing gets damaged?

Thank you for your help in advance!

No, the PC would not work without bios update and the cooler is also more than exaggerated. Thermal paste and additional fans are not necessary, generally much more power would be in it.

I'll send you my version

I would do it this way, the system has much more power:

Why is the radiator more than exaggerated? And I would like to install a total of 4 fans in my case, so the 2 extra fan.

And what do you mean with the bios update?

I do not want an HDD, I put directly on SSD ^^.

Without BIOS update, the CPU would not run on an x370 board. The cooler is huge so the CPU is not long, The fans are indeed a matter of opinion but are unnecessary or can be installed later

That's up to you, I just wanted to stay in 1000 euro, so I had to cut corners somewhere

Achso understand, okay Thanks!

Which CPU cooler would you recommend me?

I do not get it. If I choose a different radiator, I hear that it is too cheap, and at such an expensive price it is said that it is unnecessary. What is it? ^^

If you do not want to overclock the box cooler is enough if you want to overclock the:

Alright, thanks!

1. No, you have to make a first-generation bios update with the first-generation boards. Best to take a b450 or x470 board.

2. CPU cooler is not necessary for the Ryzens, as they already have a cooler with which you can also overclock.

3. If you can wait, then wait! The CPUs should offer more cores and a higher clock (not confirmed)

4. There are usually 2 supplied with the motherboard.

5. At least a good 3 years, I would say, if you reach for the RX Vega 56 with a slightly stronger power supply and thermal grease not necessary because under the cooler already in place.

Thank you for your very detailed answer, especially on my questions asked.

To your 2nd Answer: That means that I can also use the boxed cooler from Ryzen and no CPU cooler Extra must buy? So far, I've heard only negative about boxed cooler General, that is. ALWAYS buy an extra CPU cooler.

To your 5th Answer: Which RX Vega 56 would you recommend to me specifically? And what would be the best graphics card of the three: RX Vega 56, GTX 1070 or RTX 2060?

I'm currently very unsure about the graphics card. At the beginning I wanted to buy the MSI GTX 1660 TI Gaming X, but everybody thinks that it is not that good or future proof. I do not know if I should buy a GTX 1070 or maybe an RTX instead? Likewise, I'm not sure if I want to buy an AMD GraKa. I'll definitely treat myself to an AMD processor, but I think I'll stay with a nVidia GraKa. A mix of AMD and nVidia I honestly like it as well better!

PS: I think I'll give you the star for the most helpful answer, since you've helped me a lot so far.

The boxers cooler of Intel life anyway after the motto: main thing iwas. The boxers are cooler than they are pretty solid. If you want to put on more future-proof then most likely on the RX Vega 56 are the best of arez, because the cards from Nvidia all only 6gb vram in contrast to that of AMD.

Alright, thank you very much!

You have already received some good answers, I would like to suggest a possible configuration: https://geizhals.de/...WL-1156174

I have chosen a motherboard with good VRMs, WLAN and Bluetooth. If you decide to upgrade to Ryzen 3000 - you will be able to resell the R5 2600 with a tolerable loss, since it does not even cost 150 euro - you can of course do that with the board via bios update, and still have all amenities.

As a case, I chose the Meshify C with glass side, I think it's pretty, and it's always a high quality case. But of course you could also take another case.

Standard RAM, a good, cheap and quiet power supply, a cheap and quiet CPU cooler - and a fast mid-sized NVMe SSD in combination with an HDD. Instead, you can of course synonymous take a larger SATA HDD (either as a 2.5 "or just practically as M.2).

In addition, the Asus Vega 56 - for 275 euro a good card, faster and cheaper than the 1660Ti, but more power hungry. Of course, a 1660Ti would also be a possibility, as would a 2070 (the 2060 is too expensive and too slow for raytracing).

With the Vega 56 you are at 900 euro. The 100 euro you save now compared to your configuration, you can then invest in a new CPU, should the R5 2600 you too slow.

The pc has not really more power or you can't exploit them, the processor would bottlenecken at a rtx 2070th

No, not that I know. Have virtually tested the system itself and ran rather faded.

If you say that, and have even tested, but for me, the mixture does not sound balanced

I can recommend the Ben Nevis myself, was operated with nem R7 1700 & OC and kept the CPU at about 60-65 ° maximum stable. Clear Buy recommendation.

My pleasure.

Hey 3125b, thank you very much for your detailed answer and also for answering my questions. I think your configuration is also very nice. I think that I will wait for the time being for the new AMD Ryzen and then again if necessary on your and all other configurations will be in terms of motherboard, power supply and Co.

Yes, if you do not need a PC right away, that's reasonable, of course.
The Konfiguartionen would not change much, just a new CPU and then at best equal to a Mainbaord with 500 chipset.

That sounds perfect. But I think that I will most likely buy a nVidia RTX 2070. What do you think of a GTX 1070? And what are the main differences between a GTX and an RTX graphics card (in terms of the future, performance, etc.)?

All I have to do is sell my current gaming PC, but that's pretty hard, with some of my hardware still installed.

The RTX 2000 cards are the current generation. They have special arithmetic units for ray tracing (calculation of lighting, for example for reflections). Some games can use that.

The GTX 1070 I find too expensive, the Vega 56 is the better offer mMn.

NVidia's new GTX cards (1600 series) have no hardware acceleration for raytracing. The performance of the 1660Ti is similar to that of the GTX1070, but it only has 6GB of VRAM, but is more efficient.

Whether an RTX 2070 for 500 euro is worth it for you, you know.

What do you currently have for a PC? Maybe you could keep something…

One could also only retrofit GPU, SSD and RAM with the system, the Xeon is not that slow.

8GB of used DDR3 RAM (pay attention to clock and latency) does not cost much, a ~ 500GB SSD costs 50 euro, a GPU of the middle performance class (1660TI / Vega 56 about 270 euro) still makes some sense with the CPU. Then maybe you could wait another two years or so with a new purchase.

Yes, I'll think twice, thank you!
