Hi everyone I'm planning to change my rig after 5 years and currently looking into a Ryzen build. Planning to buy some from newegg next week therefore I need some recommendation for mobo, psu and case.

CPU: Ryzen 2600x
RAM: G.SKILL trident rgb 3200mhz 2x8gb ($200 from newegg)

MOBO: b450 with wifi or should I use my current rig wifi adapter?
PSU: 650w, seasonic?
Case: good airflow, able to store 1 sata hd and 2 sata ssd. placing ontop table, don't really care about aesthetics
Total budget $1k~

Will be reusing my storage and palit 1070ti jetstream.
Newegg cost way cheaper than SLS however there are no local warranty right? Planning to just get the ram and buy the rest locally instead however I think my budget is kinda tight... any advices? Thanks :)

RAM is usually quite safe to buy from overseas. Failure rates aren't high plus the price differential is usually quite significant.

Google Samsung B Die + Ryzen for more info.

Ram, PSU specifically evga supernova g2/3.

Ram has low failure rate as stated above. Evga and cpu has international warranty. Evga you have to mail to Taiwan though. Cpu is supposed to have international warranty as well but not sure if AMD Singapore will take it as it's handled by distro who only accepts sg chips. Intel chip confirmed no issue though.

I also in the mid of shopping for a new AMD Pc. For SSD and ram , i think it is ok to get from US.

I check the Amazon website for my target 2700x AMD CPU and the price difference is like $40 different. The cheapest i saw in Amazon is ard SG$440+ while online retail shop in SG are selling between $482 - $499 price range. If u do online shopping (i.e qoo10) , it is possible to get another $50 off with voucher during promotion.

Get RAM from Newegg, the rest buy locally.

Motherboard: MSI B450 gaming pro carbon ac
PSU: 550W enough alr
RAM: can get the non-rgb version for cheaper since you dont care about aesthetics. Don’t have to be b-die as the ryzen 2000 series also work well with hynix RAMs.
Case: can look into fractal design meshify c, good airflow

thanks for all the replies. I guess will just get ram from newegg and rest locally due to warranty issue. The mobo you suggested doesn't have wifi inbuild right? I saw many recommend msi b450 tomahawk, maybe I will just get that instead + wifi adapter :)

MSI B450 Tomahawk is a great Motherboard...

For WiFi, you can get a PCIe wifi card from Taobao for like 40+. Get like 9260 version with Bluetooh 5.0.

How many PCI-E lanes does the B450 support?

It seems like the chipset only comes with 16 lanes. Doesn't this preclude the use of a NVME drive?

The 16 lanes you see is meant for GPU. B450 support 24 PCIe lanes as long as you're using AMD Ryzen CPU and not APU, which is just nice to have 1x NVMe running PCIe x4, and 1x GPU running PCIe x16. It not officially documented if I remember correctly.
