First, thank you for all the info on the site, it's incredibly clear and helpful! I'm completely new to this world of building PCs. I'm building one to do freelance work in 3dmax, rendering with vray. I'd say both building and rendering are important with a slight skew towards rendering. I also use Adobe products.
Here's the build I am considering, does this all work together and look like a good setup for the price? I could spend an extra $200-400 for a significant upgrade.
CPU AMD Ryzen 9 5900 $550 sold out
CPU Cooler be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 4 $90
Motherboard MSI MAG X570 Tomahawk WiFi $220
RAM G.Skill F4-3200C16Q-64GVK Ripjaws V Series 64GB (4 x 16GB) $210
PCIe-SSD Samsung (MZ-V7S1T0B/AM) 970 EVO Plus SSD 1TB - M.2 NVMe Interface Internal $150
GPU NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 Graphics Card - Dark Platinum and Black $500 sold out
PSU Corsair RMx Series RM650x 650W ATX 2.4 Power Supply $80
Case Corsair 275R Airflow Tempered Glass Mid-Tower Gaming Case $80
$1880
CPU and GPU Q: As I said I'm new to this world, would love to get the Ryzen 5900 and the RTX 3070 but right now it looks like they're sold out. I can hold out for another month or so before getting this computer built but do these releases usually get replenished in that time period?
If it turns out that I have to move forward before I can access these, what would you suggest? Paying the extra $200 to get one of the new ones on ebay or going with an older version like the 3900 or 3950? Same question for the GPU?
Motherboard Q: Any reason to go with X570 Unify over Tomahawk for an extra $80?
Case Q: I don't care what the case looks like, just want the cheapest one that gets the job done well. Is there another one I should look at?
