My budget is around R17,000. really don't want to spend more than 20 (including all peripherals)
Will be used for gaming and work so looking for a nice solid base all-rounder that i can upgrade and and modify over time.
Uses:
Below are the parts i'm pretty keen on.
CPU - Ryzen 5 2600x (planning to oc once i get a better cooler)
GPU - GTX 1070
Motherboard - B450 Tomahawk or Gaming Plus
RAM - 2666mhz 16GB (2x8)
Storage - 250GB (more or less) SSD, Already have a 1TB HDD for general storage.
PSU - 550W Corsair or Cooler Master
Monitor - 24" 1080p 144htz
Remaining is a Case, Keyboard, Mouse and Headset.
I haven't decided on make/model for anything so if you guys have any advice on that in terms of compatibility, quality/reputable brands and models etc
also, if you think i should spend more/less money in certain areas and what i could possibly hold back on for now and upgrade at a later stage, please share
I'd love to get what i can 2nd hand (especially peripherals)
Thanks in advance, looking forward to hear what you guys think.
