Hello guys, I need a quick sanity check on my build. Main usage will be gaming at 4k@60 OR 1440P@60 ON MY 4K TV, Netflix and torrents. I originally planed on a z270 build but decided to go for a ryzen build instead.
The Node 202 requires an SFX power supply. But I'd recommend the Node 304 instead unless you really need the tiny dimensions of the 202.
Ryzen 5 1600X would be a good option unless you planned to overclock the 1700. The default frequencies of the 1600X are good for gaming, and overclocking a 1700 in a small system could get kinda warm.
I wouldn't really want to over clock much on that mobo though, maybe a tiny OC but these(AM4) itx mobos so far have been featuring rather questionable VRM setups, but as long as theres a fan blowing air over them a modest OC is probably fine. Especially if you go with a more appropriate/reasonable(for the itx platform) 4 or 6 core CPU. Then again I'm a more paranoid person than most.
The Thermalright cooler won't fit in the Node 202. Noctua has a really flat one that is still very usable.
The board doesn't look to shabby, I don't think VRMs will be a problem here. I have yet to see any config that can't handle a 1700 at 3.8GHz. But it will get louder because of the smaller heatsink. The memory... go with 3200. It is more expensive but worth it.
Also, fuck nvidia. I mean, I get it, it doesn't look good for vega. But it isn't far off at this point so maybe just wait for the first bunch of driver tweaks to see if it is getting somewhere or not.
Good catch , changed the pay for a corsair sf600. As for the case I strongly prefer the node 202 , and hopefully getting a 65w tdp should prevent too much throttling
Everything they said above this reply, and just wondering the choise of GPU. 1080 Ti is Overkill riding on a overkill buffed with stereoids to most builds!
I would recomend Ryzen 1600X and go for the GTX 1070 model that fits the case. You shoud be good with it for a few good years to come and you save some bucks for icecream!
Thanks you guys for the all the comments. I just updated my build to reflect everything. Notes : 32 gigs because probably be doing some compilation on linux and some virtual machines The cooler is 58 mm which is taller than the 56 clear of the node 202, but i saw one build where it fits ....so
