Need Help Choosing Parts
Jess
✭
I put this parts list together and am looking for some advice. Is this enough? Can i use different part somewhere to save extra money? https://www.microcenter.com/site/content/custom-pc-builder.aspx?load=0cd2dd41-5274-430b-8d01-1954a2dc6f5d

There's some things we could change around here to be able to get some more performance. We could opt for a slightly cheaper CPU and motherboard so we can upgrade the GPU to the next performance tier, e.g.:

By opting for the Ryzen 5 3600 (which is basically the same performance as the 3600X, maybe 1-2% slower at worst) and a board like the B450 Tomahawk max, we free up some cost and are able to upgrade to the RTX 2060 at about $300 instead, without changing the overall cost.
