Help me with this build. Im new at this.

EstebanM

Hello everyone, I am currently trying to build a whole complete PC build + Peripherals. Trying to spend atleast $1,000 but I know that's tough, so I will say the most I really would like to spend is $1,500. Would like something decent right now with a nice upgrade path for the future. One thing I would really like to say is that I will be building two exact builds , one for me and for a friend that will use the PC for the same reason. And also that I will likely try and buy my parts during black froday sales or holiday sales in general.

I want to build a PC mainly for Gaming and Programming/Coding for now. Games I would run are Minecraft, Rainbow 6 Siege , Apex Legends, Runescape, Forza, PUBG, COD. I am coming from console and trying to switch to PC. Want to be able to ay 1080p gaming with no issues or atleast normal settinga with no issues.
For Programming/Coding , i am pretty sure that a good gaming PC will probably be good enough for running many programs at once. Trying to get into game devolpement. In general, I will be running a lot of programs at once, while having many applications run in the background too.

I dont know anything about builds but after a couple of days of research , this is what Ive came up with. Please if there is anything I messed up or can inprove on, please let me know. Thanks.

Peripherals I am looking into. Please add any recommandations. I will probably buy these in person to see how I actually like them instead of online shopping.

Hello @EstebanM

The build looks good!  I have no real issues on this, love all the Corsair.  I'm a big corsair fan myself.  I see you went with the White Aesthetic for your Corsair Build, there are White Corsair PSUs that come with White Cables as well; https://www.microcenter.com/product/607743/corsair-rm750x-750-watt-80-plus-gold-atx-fully-modular-power-supply---white. 

I don't have any complaints, the build is also pretty good for upgrading in the future as well.

@TSPhillipT Thanks Man! I thought i would mess up somewhere. I know i want a Ryzen 5 3600 , but don't know which GPU to pair it up with. I picked the 2060 just because of the post you guys made but didnt know if it was a good choice. Would you have chosen another gpu or should I stick to the 2060? Also, how could I upgrade this in the future? Is my system future proof for now?

Also, I was looking for these "Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 Memory"  but in White. I know you guys have these in black but what about white? I wanted these instead of the Crucial but i just couldn't find the Corsairs. Theres probably no difference in performance but I just wanted to stick to all Corsair lol.

And thanks for that PSU suggestion, more expensive but it matches lmao, So ill probably buy that too.

AH I didn't see you had Crucial ones in.  I thought there were the Corsair Vengeance RGB in White since it looked similar! 

We do carry them! https://www.microcenter.com/product/508046/corsair-vengeance-rgb-pro-16gb-(2-x-8gb)-ddr4-3200-pc4-25600-cl16-dual-channel-desktop-memory-kit-16gx4m2c320c16w---white

Lastly, there is a White Corsair Keyboard aswell; https://www.microcenter.com/product/508800/corsair-k70-rgb-mk2-se-mechanical-gaming-keyboard---cherry-mx-speed 


In regards to the GPU, it depends on the resolution you are playing at, and I think at 1080p which should be the minimum resolution, a 2060 Super or 2070 Super would be that decent future proof unless you end up going to a higher resolution.

@TSPhillipT Thanks for the help man, really appreciate it. Now I know what to look for when I go to the store.
