I think the vega 56 still available.. I reckon if you buy it and not happy with it after using, it can still fetch a good price second hand. Likely you want make much of a loss unless gpu prices tank next year.

But of course the idea is to use it for 1440p gaming.

i think i will pass for a higher price gfx as i see myself spending little time on games to be honest. thanks!

It is g2 which is higher spec and cheaper than 850w g+. 750w is already good enough for most cases.

BTW asus amd rx cards were on offer on Qoo10 recently.. Local warranty and 50% off. But I think it's all gone. If I didn't already buy the rx580 rog I would have gotten vega 56 for 467 on Newegg. With $30 off its only 437!

Want trade my vega 56 for ur rog 580 u top up?

MATX board inside R4 (Full ATX) like abit wasted. Should consider something like this for 2600 or 2600x. Nice big heatsinks on the VRM to help ur 2600 to either boost via XFR2 or manual overclock easily
https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/B450-TOMAHAWK

Highly recommend u buy at least Ryzen CPU + MB locally. Warranty for these two always a good thing.

GPU now RX 580 on lelong locally. RX 580 8GB if u know where to look can get for less than $300 and is faster than GTX 1060 6GB now.

RAM i recommend G.Skill Trident Z or Trident Z RGB 2933Mhz/3200Mhz. Their Sniper line also good for Ryzen

Ask the people here, they will know the advise above is based on a great amount of exp ;)

hi, is it worth to get a ATX board like MSI B450M TOMAHAWK board if i dont not intend to OC for now coz i dont know how to.

i feel that the sole purpose to get atx board just to fit the case is wrong. You buy what you require, why pay additional money for something that you don't need.
