SmoloTHEKloWn

I put this parts list together and am looking for some advice. https://www.microcenter.com/site/content/custom-pc-builder-amd.aspx?load=cd2006c5-e13a-4a84-b3ed-056d88c6c919

Greetings, @SmoloTHEKloWn

I'd be happy to offer recommendations once I know a bit more.

What kind of budget did you have in mind for this build? What do you plan to use this build to do, and what monitor will you pair with this build?

Hello,
I was trying to stay under 2k.  
I am purchasing this monitor ASUS TUF Gaming VG289Q
This is mainly for Gaming with light work in MS Suite.  I generally build computers that will last me a while.  I want to be able to do 4k @60fs min.

I'd recommend a 3080 if you're interested in 4k at 60fps. The 3070 is capable in some titles however, the 3080 is the next class above and you'll see fewer drops below 60fps with it.

We benchmarked the 3070 with a few games recently, I'd recommend you check our article here.

I did make a few changes to your build and was able to get it under the 2k budget you mentioned.

Here it is with the 3070 you selected.

And here it is with a 3080 that I'd recommend.

Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions!

What about the Fans?

@SmoloTHEKloWn The case comes with fans! 😊

I noticed you've included 10 additional fans with your build list. This adds quite a bit of additional cost that doesn't add to the performance and won't noticeably benefit your cooling. If you're interested in purchasing all these fans, you'll also need a fan hub or fan controller as well, however, they would be mostly cosmetic. If you're wanting to improve cooling, I would recommend a 3rd party air cooler or an AIO.
