I took the quotation from nearest computer shops..
Ryzen 2600 is 15500
3 series boards are unbelievable/priced at 12k... Most of them Suggesting X470, starts from 13k..which seems high price..
Samsung Evo 250gb - 5600rs


Any performance improvement for using dual channel RAM over single?

Is 8gb ram more than enough for future?

Any big difference be Samsung and kingston ssd?

CM Elite 5 RGB or Antec Df500?

If you use stock cooler and plan to game then better get 2600x.
Or with 2600 stock temps run high. You may need an after market cooler.

Higher than the safe temperature?

Not really higher than safe temp. I have seen it shoot up to 60°c which is not good for me. Cos it will lead to degradation of cpu sooner. I always prefer temps between 40-50

So, the 2600x cooler is better than after market cooler,because 2600x is 3k more than 2600...

Jul 4, 2018 at 10:19 AM
Yes. This is my personal observation. Or you can go 2600 way and buy a good after market cooler and oc the he'll out of it.
X470 makes sense at 12 k than x370 at same price.
watch out for Amazon prime deal starting on 16th July. Normally , just before such sale days , Amazon has a flash sale on computer items . I got a msi x370 xpower titanium gaming mother board at 9999 few months back.

Get motherboard I have mentioned get it locally or from mdcomputers X470 boards starts from 13k
if you can spend extra then go with Samsung Evo 250gb
Minor difference only shows significant difference in APUs
Add one more RAM in future also installing RAM is very easy
I don't think there is much difference maybe I am wrong
Get Coolermaster master lite 5 RGB

Does Adding extra ram later works as dual channel?
Any big difference using 3000mhz over 2400mz ram?

Yes, it is M-ATX, if you are not going to upgrade for some time ( 2-3 yers) then go for x470 board top of the line which have better VRM, cos ultimately better quality board with good PSU will give you longer life of the components. worst case scenario is buy an asus 15-16 k board and do EMI. for 12 mths.
And why x470 >? better memory comparability and OC

What's wrong with the mobo I have suggested?This is one of the best mobo you can find for 10k

Performance between 2600 & 2600x are very similar if your budget don't permit then get a 2600 but do not compromise on mobo

You can go with 2600x with regular mobo
Or 2600 with aftermarket cpu cooler and x470 board
Other option is use 2600 with regular cooler now and after few months buy a good cooler

To all those posting here,don't take it otherwise but you are confusing the @op with your suggestions without taking into account his preferences.What is the need for suggesting 10k+ mobo for someone who is never going to overclock or aftermarket cooler without even taking into consideration his usage(aka mainly gaming & occasional editing)?Are AMD stock coolers so bad that they can't even survive 6-7 hours of daily heavy usage for a few years(I am assuming all of it as gaming)?

This seems good but I don't wanna spend more than 10k on mobo as I don't do any over clocking.
Asus rog 350 f is not available offline.. I think I should try online..

250gb ssd+ 16gb ram or 500gb ssd + 8gb ram?

My friend has spare Seasonic s12 520w which is 3 year old. Power efficiency 480w..I might use that. Will it handle upcoming 1160/1170 series GPU ?

Try mdcomputers,they have good availability as well as positive reviews.

Ram is overpriced now & if you are sure you won't need extra 8gb ram(I am not a gamer but I have read that some games are quite ram hungry) for next few months/year then go with 500gb ssd & 8gb ram.

Better get a new psu,CX550 is available for ~4000 from mdcomputers & is a good option for its price.Nobody knows when nvidia next cards will be launched in India or if they will even launch at reasonable rates(who knows some new cryptocurrency mining algorithm taking advantage of these new cards gets released pushing the prices beyond reason).If you are looking at seasonic as a temporary psu for next few months/year & currently have not so much demanding gfx card then it is alright.

I would say don't get 500GB SSD better spend that money in getting 16GB RAM

Cm elite 5 RGB case - 4900
Samsung 860 Evo 250gb - 5800
Wd 1tb blue - 2900

I will add another 8gb to make use of dual channel in couple of months..

For now I'll use Seasonic 520 and will buy new one when the new GPUs are out along with CPU cooler

So any good silent cooler under 2-3k as I don't overclock..

ATX is only required if one needs more ports(some atx mobo have 8 sata ports) or going to use all those pcie slots(in ATX mobo they are more & placed farther apart compared to mATX so less chances of congestion/obstruction of ports).
