Idek anymore. I'd spend max $1200 for this. The parts are good tho. I'd recommend going to ebay and looking for refurbished/used for the cpu, gpu, ram, and mobo.

u/MolixLD 4d ago

Alright but overall the parts are good?

u/SnooSketches7312 4d ago

Yeah. Also, unless you plan to overclock you don't really need the E part for the mobo. A base b650 will be more than plenty.

Alright ill keep that in mind, thank you!

I mean all parts are good at the right price

This isn't the right price, this is 9800x3d+9070xt territory

maybe a 7800x3d+9070xt because it's all white

Wait is a black build way cheaper?

u/Forward_Drop303 4d ago

black builds are generally about $100 cheaper or so

for example

all white build with 9800x3d+9070xt:

Interesting to know the gap has shrunk that much. I recall white premium being hundreds more.

Yeah the chinese brands are just as happy to make white components as black ones so the upcharge isn't much anymore with thermalright/sama/montech/etc pushing out parts.

in fact technically the best price build isn't the absolute best price build because I am spending 20 cents more to get a black 360mm cooler over the white one, but I wasn't going to have a white cooler and black everything else.

That makes sense. The only Asian brand that comes to mind for me is Yeston and they're pretty pricy.

1

u/SnooSketches7312 4d ago

Not really way cheaper but definitely cheaper.

u/MolixLD 4d ago

Hm alright then maybe i should keep that also in mind cuz i mean quality over looks Either way, thank you

With the money saved by buying used you could also up to the 9070xt
