Hi, Thought I would share my planning of the build and hope to get your thoughts about it.
Case: NZXT H710
Motherboard: Gigabyte Z390 Designare
CPU: Intel Core i7-9700K
Cooling: NZXT Kraken M22 120mm - Might not be enough. Looking at X53 or X63 instead (240/280mm)
HD: Sabrent 500GB Rocket NVMe 4.0 Gen4 PCIe M.2 - Good choice?
GPU: RX 580 fits the budget but 5700 XT would be nice. Hmm. Don't think I can afford the VII card.
RAM:???? DDR4, I get that part. Question is what's the best bang for the bucks? 2666, 3000, 3200, 3400, 3600mhz (2x8GB or 2x16GB based on $)
Powah: EVGA SuperNOVA 750W G3 (80 Plus Gold)
Monitor: I got a 27" apple thunderbolt. Wonder if it will work with this build. Otherwise, looking at a BenQ 27" 2K QHD (PD2705Q)
Run macOS Catalina on it. 10.15.2+, not meant for gaming. I do music, graphics, and some video editing.
That's it.
