Hello, this will be my first pc build so I need help with what parts to get. My goal is around $1200 and that is just for the rig itself not including mouse and keyboard / monitor. I’m looking to play mostly RPG’s, RTS’s, modded Bethesda titles, Mount and Blade, Divinity, Totar War, etc. Thank you!

    Hello @Blake, so this is a great price point to get a really solid build.  The one I did should allow you to do really high quality on all the games you want.  You should be able to do some really good 1440p gaming at well over 60fps on the majority of games on high to ultra graphic settings.  Depending on flexibility in price you could possibly try to jump up your CPU to a  Ryzen 7 3700x and a x470 motherboard for maybe an extra 200+ bucks for both.  But for now the Ryzen 5 3600x and the solid B450 tomahawk board will handle what your wanting with no sweat.

    CPU: (1) AMD Ryzen 5 3600X Matisse 3.8GHz 6-Core AM4 Boxed Processor with Wraith Spire Cooler ($179.99 EACH)
    Motherboard: (1) MSI B450 Tomahawk Max AMD AM4 ATX Motherboard ($114.99 EACH)
    RAM: (1) G.Skill Ripjaws V 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-3600 PC4-28800 CL16 Dual Channel Desktop Memory Kit F4-3600C16D-16GVKC - Black ($82.99 EACH)
    Case: (1) NZXT H510 Tempered Glass ATX Mid-Tower Computer Case - Black ($69.99 EACH)
    Power Supply: (1) PowerSpec 650 Watt 80 Plus Gold ATX Semi-Modular Power Supply ($79.99 EACH)
    Video Card: (1) EVGA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER BLACK GAMING Overclocked Dual-Fan 8GB GDDR6 PCIe 3.0 Video Card ($519.99 EACH)
    M.2 SSD: (1) Crucial P1 1TB SSD 3D QLC NAND M.2 2280 PCIe NVMe 3.0 x4 Internal Solid State Drive ($109.99 EACH)
    Hard Drive: (1) Seagate BarraCuda 2TB 7200RPM SATA III 6Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive ($49.99 EACH)
