If you don't need the few degree improvement of the chunky Air cooler tower, can consider AIO which i think i much cleaner, simpler to install and usually no clearance issue.

YEP. Many people don't really like the idea as it runs on a pump and fan so additional parts that "could go wrong". I got one anyway and am happy with it :s22:

I thought of using one as well in the beginning, but ended up choosing air coolers because I thought it was a little overkill for me.

Wait for b550. Dont rush. Now world wide shortage on x570.

Reduce your gpu to rtx 2070 super and up your cpu x3900. Now on sale less then 600. Wait for tomorrow opportunity.

Using R5 3600 expect alot of microstarter on 1440p gaming. :(

Always build your gaming based on your monitor. No point getting RTX2080 Super if u not on 4k

Thanks for the informations, I found a replacement for the Mobo at the same price from sg seller already. Gpu n cpu alr otw to my place alr lol. But I replace the gen 4 ssd with a gen 3 ssd to lower the damage for now. Anyway I wanted to ask if I can add on a gen 4 ssd in the future on the other pcie slot ?

as what others are saying, now is a bad time to buy new build.
alot of new tech is launching in the next few months and Nvdia Ampere also launching before Q4 2020.

best is hold until Nvidia Ampere launches along with the B550 launch.

AIO as mentioned do carry some risk, there is a chance of it bursting and damaging your parts. None are full proof and from time to time need to check for leakage. Hence, inexperienced users shouldn't get it since they can't even do maintenance 😂

That's why I chose air cooling in the end cause I scared everything spoil when I didn't install properly. Will be a expensive lesson if that happened

I disagree here as the closed loop ones do not require maintenance.

Hi guys, I just cancelled my prism+ x340pro order. Was wondering if I should use 4k or 1440p monitor now. Any advice?

Unless you're chasing cutting edge technology I would go for a 1440p setup. Even with what I have I still hit limits in games running 4K and have to tune down settings to make games playable on 4K. I see the slowdowns in games like Rise of the Tomb Raider and even GTA5 which surprised me quite a bit.

I think the next real leap will be the next gen GPU's so looking forward to see what performance improvements they have over the current RTX 2080 Ti's.
