[QUOTE="plat, post: 913591, member: 74969"] shmu26--Is there a retailer where you are that can bundle the Ryzen with a compatible motherboard? Nothing against the Corsair cooler, but the 3900X comes with its own cooler. Don't know how good it is, though. I linked to a page on Micro Center's [URL='https://www.microcenter.com/search/search_results.aspx?N=&cat=&Ntt=ryzen+3900x+bundle&searchButton=search']site [/URL]with various examples of cpu and motherboard combos as a reference. That main SSD sounds absolutely fantastic! I recently upgraded to Samsung 980 Pro from 970 EVO Plus and I absolutely notice the difference in speed, never mind the benchmarks. Passmark rates that 980 Pro SSD in the 99th percentile currently. If you read up on the NVIDIA 3000 series, you will find that air-cooling has been optimized. Or, you can consider the AMD's Big NAVI offerings but I admit, I don't know much of anything about them. Nice case--under 100 dollars. Unless you're a fan of RGB, instead of the Corsair cooler, you can consider a Noctua NH D15. It's very ugly but these are great cpu coolers.
