The best motherboard for 5900X
ROG STRIX X570-E GAMING motherboard adopts 12+4 power supply module, built-in MOS heat pipe for power supply and heat dissipation, 6-layer PCB design, and integrated rear IO baffle. With two PCIe4.0 slots that support SLI. Integrated wifi6 wireless network card.
GIGABYTE X570 AORUS MASTER motherboard uses 14-phase Infineon direct-out CPU power supply, 3 M.2 slots with ice heat dissipation armor. With 3 PCI-E 4.0 slots with protective installation. Integrated intel wifi6 wireless network card. Support RGB2.0 light effect.
The best Cooler for 5900X
360 water cooling is recommended. Recommend ROG 360 water cooling, NZXT Kraken X73, Corsair H150i RGB PRO XT. Kraken X73 and H150i belong to the first echelon of 360 water cooling, ROG’s 360 water cooling is also very good, But the price is very expensive，it is recommended for friends with ROG beliefs to choose.
If want to use air cooling can also consider NOCTUA NH-D15 (air cooling is not recommended for this level).
The best graphics card for 5900X
The 3080TI graphics card is recommended. The current price of the 3080TI graphics card is around $1500, and the performance is very close to that of the 3090.
AMD’s RX 6900 XT and RX 6800 XT are also very cost-effective. It is recommended for those who want to assemble the 3A platform.
However, the optical tracking performance of AMD graphics cards is still somewhat different than that of N cards. Other performance is very good.
AMD’s RX 6900 XT and RX 6800 XT public versions are relatively reasonably priced, but they are very difficult to buy. If you can buy them, choose the public version as much as possible. Sapphire brand is recommended for non-public graphics cards. Personally, I have come into contact with the A cards of major manufacturers when mining, and Sapphire has the best performance. The price is also more appropriate.
The appearance of the flagship 3090 of the three major factories is basically the same as that of the 3080Ti, and the interface is basically the same. The price almost doubled. Gamers should buy 3080Ti. 3090 is only recommended for productivity users.
The best memory for 5900X
It is recommended to use memory with a frequency above 3600. It is recommended to use the 32G package. 16G is just enough. Recommend G.SKILL’s Trident Z Neo.
The best SSD for 5900X
Solid state hard drives are strongly recommended to support PCIE4.0. It is recommended to use Samsung’s 980 PRO. If you don’t want to invest too much in solid state, you can also choose Samsung’s 970 EVO PLUS. Western Digital’s SN 550 is also good. You can also choose to use the 500G 980 PRO+1T SN550 dual solid-state combination.
The best power supply for 5900X
The power supply is recommended to use a 1000w 80 plus gold power supply. Because many graphics cards use 3×8pin power supply. Most of the 850w power supply is two 8pin interfaces. You can use SUPER FLOWER 1000w gold power supply. The 1000w of the 80 plus platinum is much more expensive, so it is not necessary.
The best chassis for 5900X
It is recommended to choose a chassis that supports 360 water cooling on the top. If you don’t hate light pollution, the cooler master H500P is very good. The top supports the installation of 360 water cooling, and the front is equipped with two 20 cm ARGB fans as standard. The heat dissipation design is very reasonable.
The D7 chassis with fractal design is also very good, with first-class noise and heat dissipation. ROG Strix Helios is also a good choice.
