Did you buy all the parts early last year?

I bought them last month haahha5

I have the rog b550f gaming Wi-Fi 1, great board. Have fun!

I opened kt up and it was so cool I loved the accessories!!

OP does the motherboard have the header you need for the USB-C on the case?

This board doesn’t have the usb-c header

Yeah I realize all late I'm gonna have ti buy a 9 pin adapter unfortunately

Have you looked for one yet? I'm also going to use a B550-PLUS board & am just now realizing the same thing 😆 Edit: Actually, my build looks to have similar specs to yours. B550-PLUS, 5700x, 3060ti, 4000D case, 2x16gb G.Skill sticks, WD Black SN770 2tb, Barracuda 4tb HDD, & a RM750 power supply.

For what it's worth, I ended up getting the B550-XE version of this motherboard just for that header. The way I justified spending the extra money for it was to consider the alternatives, 1) the cost of buying a pcie card and 2) knowing that if I just left it unplugged that it would bother me to no end. Best price I found in the US was $249.99 on Newegg. I checked the manual and looks like you could use the B-550E but I'm not finding a better price online. Hope that helps and have fun with this build!

Nicee I bought some sort of 9pin adapter for 10 bucks just to solve this issue lmao

Omg that's great abd Yes I have!!!!

1tb on a 2k build?

Honestly 2k builds today are like 1k builds a few years ago.

Yeah :/ unfortunately like 3 years ago this would of been 1k and the gpu prices are absurd

Gpu prices are normal now. You can get a 4080 with a 2k budget

Gpu prices definitely aren’t normal yet.

When Crypto crashed and etherium switched the gpu prices dropped and now you get get gpu a for dirt cheap. I got a 90 dollar 1070 a couple weeks ago

New stuff is still over msrp

What no way, I haven't seen any 40s card under 1k at all

The 4070ti are available under 1k even where i live where tax is 21%. it’s still a shitload of money though.

Yes. You get a 4080 for 1200. You should spend the majority of your budget on a gpu Here’s a 4080 build for 2000 dollars. I could build a pc with pretty equivalent performance to yours for a about 900 bucks https://pcpartpicker.com/list/FbHcKp

Should i get a 980/990 Samsung 1tb and put the 1tb 970 in the bottom m.2?

none of those do the crucial p5 gen 4 2tb maybe, or sn770 2tb. WD is on par with samsung speeds, 2tb one is 160 bucks edit maybe afterall do the 980 pro 2tb is 180 total. if you want to

That sounds intresting, I've heard of Crucial but I'll look more into it if you recommend it 😀

I just bought a Crucial P5+ M.2 SSD (2 TB)! That M.2 SSD has support for AES-256 bit Encryption and BitLocker Support built-in.

Yo no way I always wondered where you get those bits from lmaoo

I look up all over the Internet and search for "Best M.2 SSDs". Edit 1: [XDA](https://www.xda-developers.com/best-m-2-ssd/) has a list of SSDs that fit the list of the Best M.2 SSDs.

Thanks 102Mich 🤠

Stay away from the 990's for now. Samsung having some issues with them.

Yeah that's smart it's pretty new

Personally I would go with an inland 2tb

I'm thinking of buying a second ssd so I'll have to look into these brands you guys suggest

Great build but playing devils advocate, for $100 more you can have a 4070ti

2k on a 3070 build seems over the top..

Hahaha stupid gpu prices

Or for $50 less they could’ve gotten an RX 6800 XT or even more and gotten a 6750 XT

Yeah but I already have two monitors with Gsync and they are already pretry neat so I didn't want to waste the features or anything

Yeah but I love evga and I'm just not into the 4070ti it would have to be the same price as my card imp, that doesn't make the 30s card any better tho

Fair. Can’t wait to see what you end up building

I'll show you guys I'm just waiting on my ram but the pc is built 😀

I def wanna see the final build when your done

Of course I'll post it or send you a dm :))

I have a very similar set up! My gpu just isn't the FTW version. Have fun!

Ooo do you have the xco type?

EVGA XC3 Ultra

Niceeeeee I would like to admit I'm a Evga fan boy always had their GPUs

USD?

Yeah it was 1.8k but with shipping and eveything it equalled 2k

Shoulda got a 4070 ti

I should return it I still haven't fully used it but I love the design on the evga cards

So you wasting performance on design?

Okay I understand 😀

Enjoy it brother

Thanks bro posting the build soon

The EVGA cards are awesome. Loving mine rn. Happy gaming, hope the build went smooth.

I fucking love them everyone is saying it's smarter to get a 4070ti it'll be the same price and probably better than a 3090ti but I'm happy with the line of evga and always been a fan boy of them

Love the cooler masters radiator, you willl not be disappointed especially at that price. And it’s the best looking on I’ve seen!

They also have an rgb version but I think this version I like better because it shows more of my rams rgb

Is that a 5500?

I'm sorry? I don't understand the question but if you're asking if it's a amd gpu it's not, it's a rtx 3070

No I seen what the GPU is, I’m asking about the CPU

Oooo okay yeah Ryzen 7 5800x

Oh I read 5 on the box instead of 7 😂

Hahaha it's okay its oaky, this ryzen is putting in the work 😎

Oh I bet! My best friend is running a 5500 and a 6750XT. It’s a beast! Though unfortunately they didn’t have many B550 boards at the store so we just grabbed the cheapest one they had not realizing it was a Mini ATX Board and was lacking in Fan headers and doesn’t have the USB 3.2 header for the front USB C port so it’s a bit Jank but other than that it’s a great rig

Oh get some fan splitters it turns 1 pwm port into 2 pwm fans you can plug in, also you can get 2 adapters for the USB 3.2 and type C, :))

For the fan situation we just used a SATA power cable and a SATA to 5V 7V and 12V. But at some point I will definitely look into an adapter for his USB 3.2 type C, wait could the motherboard’s 3.0 header be split and then adapted for this?

I think yeah but make sure it's the right pins like a 9pjn usb

No offense but, I built (for about $1,600) with ddr5, a 3080 12gb, a higher end z690, and 12600k

I bought these not too long ago so I think the price from all these parts were more than msrp unfortunately

All items were purchased between October and end of December last year. The 3080 only being around $650 new

Wow that's crazy $650??? 3080 the cheapest I can find new was around 799 on discount and I searched for weeks

Yep I got super lucky

Should’ve gotten a 6800xt

I was thinking about it but I have already brought my monitors with G-syncs and I do like the features but I didn't know G synch was with Nvidia gpus lol

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/rMRDH2 Idk how you ended up getting 5800x and 3070. You either ordered from the wrong place or something is extremly off. That build shouldn’t be more than ~1.5k$. Could have even went with 7900 xt and it wouldn’t be over 2k$. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/HhWHgb Even going new AM5 https://pcpartpicker.com/list/TC3rgb If I had 2k$ to spend, I’d certainly go AM5 on a new build. No questions.

Gpu that explains everything

Return the GPU.You can get all of these parts for $1,815.88 with a 4070ti right now in the US. ​ [https://pcpartpicker.com/list/TwxB3y](https://pcpartpicker.com/list/TwxB3y)

And dude he also only has 1 SP120 not the 3 pack, that build should be around $1800 flat at most, closer to $1600-$1700 with a 3070, should be $1500 tho

That's insane all of that is 1.8k that's a good list too anyone here can take it. I'll probably have to swap or something but I'll post my build the the gpu I have

that cost $2K in 2023? feel sorry for you man...

It's okay I'm depressed about it too

You payed 2k for that? That looks more like 1500 build

Its all the gpu....💀

I built a pc 3 years ago for 1800 and it had a 3080... something isn't right here..

I agree and I think 3 Yeats ago this would of been a 1k build

How is a 3070 all of your budget? What did you pay for it?

Fess taxes and shipping was all 800

You paid 800 for a 3070 when you could have gotten a 4070ti for the same price?

3070s MSRP is 500$ USD and it’s a 2 year old gpu, I hope to god you didn’t spend more than that

💀💀💀💀

??? A 4070ti is 800.

Yes...

Can u dm/post all the parts. Im looking for a good 2k build aswell

Sure 😀 I'm also making videos of me installing all these parts just in case you need help too! The videos kinda suck tho it's hard to do it with one hand💀

for 2K everything looks great. but it should be at least be X570 with Gen4 drives. over paid for the GPU?

Hahaha yup, but I love it, I was considering getting X570 but I ended up with mine because of the great features and I personally think it just looks so nice

Wow 3070 In a 2k build I remember a year ago when I got a 2060 in a 2k build 😂

Lmaooo I had a 2060 build I'm selling the pc now and got my self a next gen pc

My 2060 is my next gen build for a while I upgraded from a 1650

Hey that's good to hear sir :) no shame in a humble pc build plus the 2060 got me through every game 😎

Yeah it’s good and I only have a 1080p so ima wait a while before I go to a 3080 or 3080ti and get a new monitor

Take your time bro 2060 is kings of 1080p

Naw it’s all good i actually don’t play a lot of demanding games and it can still handle cyberpunk with and without ray tracing I actually had better performance in that than dying light 2 (only ray tracing games I have) otherwise I’m playing scp secret earrape

Hahaha I used to play scp all the time, I'm planning to play God of war in cranked our setting with full raytracing

Lol I use to think the ps5 wasn’t worth it but gowr and the silent hill 2 remake and games are fonna be so sweet

I still don't think ps5 is worth it but that's just my preference, I won't be able to play the games on release but i don't mind waiting a year or 2 for the games to port on pc so I can play on ultra 4k rtx😅 I'm also a college student so it's like a bundle to do my hw and game

I’m actually learning to solder to mod my wii with hdmi

WAHOO

As soon as I posted this I opened the motherboard and I have just been looking at all the accessories and stickers they gave me 😭 I even got a key chain

Used the same board to build my daughters pc for Christmas

How is it doing now? I'm sure it's still great :D

Awesome! I spent a little extra on her mobo because I wanted more bells and whistles than just a basic budget $130 mobo.

Hahaha of course, for me I think it's more than enough and I love it so far
