    Hey guys!

    Looking at putting together a new build, you guys were helpful a few years ago so I'd like to get a second opinion on this.

    It's hitting my price limit, but i'd be willing to go about 100 - 150 euro more (or less) if the hardware works out better

    Hopefully you can see the list via the link

    Haha all the parts on that list I have in my build. Along with an overclocked 1070ti and I'm very happy with it.

    The list is missing a case, GPU and a PSU. Are you reusing ones from your old build?

    That's because it is your own parts list sinnerboy0.

    Pyr0 - you need to copy the text from where it says "permalink" and use that. The link you've given goes to each user's default parts list.

    The Gigabyte 1080 TI is £579 from Amazon. Just pick Amazon from the seller drop-down.

    Gigabyte Geforce GTX 1080 TI Gaming OC GeForce GTX1080 TI Internal Graphic Card 11264 MB https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B074N9Q5W3/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_O2JSBbB239VRG

    Works out cheaper than the 1080 you linked.

    I've used ASRock on older builds I've had, including my existing one so it's more brand comfort/pricing if i'm honest. Do you have any suggestions on a different board?

    if your looking for just an entry level b450 id go with the asrock b450m hdv

    if you want to go up a bit more in the middle id go with the msi b450 tomahawk

    and the absolute king of b450s imo the b450 gaming pro carbon from msi


    b450m hdv: https://www.amazon.co.uk/ASRock-B450M-HDV-B450-Micro-DDR4/dp/B07G2FJ4D5/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1538408671&sr=8-1&keywords=asrock+b450mhdv

    tomahawk: https://www.amazon.co.uk/MSI-B450-TOMAHAWK-Motherboard-Processors/dp/B07FQ9ZJD9/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1538408627&sr=8-1&keywords=b450+tomahawk

    gaming pro carbon ac: https://www.amazon.co.uk/MSI-B450-GAMING-PRO-CARBON/dp/B07FP11742/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1538408725&sr=8-2&keywords=gaming+pro+carbon+ac

    probably shouldnt get them off amazon as they all seem to be out of stock and other places have them cheaper but just for you to look at them anyway

    also i guess the important part is do you plan on over clocking if you do you will probably need a cpu cooler and id go with some of the mid range/ highend b450 boards

    I wouldn't be into overclocking, I've read that the stock cooler fan that comes with the Ryzen should be enough for it if not OC'ing it.
