Gaming build

[pickledcheese]

Hello! I will hopefully be ordering in the next couple of weeks and so making final decisions on specs! This build is pretty much my max budget for the pc itself to be paired with a 144Hz 1920 X 1080p monitor (the exact one is unknown as it depends on what is in stock at the time). Main use will be Minecraft with possible streaming in the future. As a side question, is there anyway to see what the difference between one and two 50cm RGB strips looks like?

Your RAM is a bit slow for that processor, I'd say 3200mhz minimum for new AMD stuff.

EDIT: About the RGB, I chose 2 strips instead of 1 because at that time I was in the "if it says RGB tick the box" mood at the time, and honestly it's a bit much. I'd drop down to 1 strip if I could just because I like having some internal lighting. I ended up getting 2 strips + RGB Pro version of the Vengeance RAM + 3 Light Loop fans and my room looks like a 90's rave when I have it all going.

Thank you for the replies! Out of interest, what would a spec with the 3700x look like?

Would the monitor specs still be suitable for this build?

Thank you for the help!
