I want to improve my PC, so I made a list. Other parts such as the keyboard and monitor are also on the list.
My current PC:
Ryzen 3 3200g boxed cooler
Rtx 2060 6GB
8GB Ram 2660 Mhz
1 nvme SSD 500 gb
Corsair housing
650 watts with Qiet power supply
1 24 inch 60 Hz monitor with full HD
Office keyboard
Logitech G 903 Lightspeed
Stream deck
Webcam
I want to upgrade my PC so that I can play well on WQHD with over 144Hz games like Minecraft and Fortnite and sometimes stream them. Nevertheless, my "new" PC shouldn't be too expensive, Butget around 1000 euro.
Here is my configuration:

Is this configuration good or what should I do differently?
And do I need thermal paste for an Aoi?
Thanks to everyone who read this through and responded!
It won't really be faster than the old one, because what really brings the FPS is the graphics card. But if you keep the 2060, not much will happen there.
Otherwise you can omit the AIO, which brings you more disadvantages than advantages.
I also want a new gpu but at the moment it's not worth it
For gaming, I would recommend at least 16 GB of RAM
Sure, but RAM doesn't bring FPS - and that's what it wants.

So you want to upgrade your computer and prepare it for the use of a new, more powerful graphics card, which will then be added later. In this case, exchanging the mainboard, CPU and RAM makes sense. Because I still have a few pointers for you that you should perhaps include in your considerations.
The Ryzen 5 5600X processor is well chosen for a gaming PC and also relatively future-proof. A Ryzen 5 3600 would have the better price / performance ratio, but the Ryzen 5 5600X is the more powerful processor. When you have the money to spare, take this one. But you don't necessarily need DDR4-3600 RAM for this. The Ryzen 5 5600X processor natively supports up to DDR4-3200 RAM. Anything above that requires the memory controller and memory bus I / O registers to be overclocked. However, it does not have to work or does not have to work stably. It can't be predicted whether and how high the memory controller can be overclocked, nor can a specific overclocking target be guaranteed. That depends on the individual characteristics of each individual processor. For Ryzen processors, faster memory is often recommended, because with these processors, the L3 cache common to the CPU cores, was previously distributed over the CPU cluster and had to be synchronized via the memory controller in the processor. Since this comparison takes place via the memory controller, the memory controller is also operated faster with faster RAMs, which has an impact on the L3 cache and thus on the computing power of the processor. But that was only the case with Ryzen series 1000 to 3000 CPUs. This is no longer the case with the new Ryzen 5000 series processors, including the Ryzen 5 5600X. Since all CPU cores are housed here on a CPU cluster, including a uniform L3 cache, this does not have to be synchronized via the memory controller. Therefore, faster memories no longer have such a strong impact on the processing power of the processor as with the older Ryzen processors. Therefore I would not do any more memory overclocking experiments and use a maximum of DDR4-3200 RAM. So you definitely have a stable system. For inexperienced users in particular, overclocking can quickly become a one-way street if simple XMP mem overclocking fails and you have to intervene manually. https://www.mindfactory.de/...54715.html
The MSI B550 Gaming Edge Wi-Fi motherboard is very well equipped and also has very good voltage converters. However, I do not believe in Wi-Fi for a gaming PC. I would prefer a LAN connection. In this case, the mainboard version without Wi-Fi is sufficient, which would also be cheaper. https://www.mindfactory.de/...69907.html
From a technical point of view, water cooling for a processor that produces only 65W waste heat is senseless. Especially when a graphics card is used that generates up to 170W of heat, or even more, with the "new" graphics card that is still to come. If anything, then water cooling makes sense only for the graphics card. A faux pas that many others also commit. True to the motto: It doesn't have to be any good, the main thing is that it looks good.
For the Ryzen 5 5600X processor, however, even on most current A520, B550 and X570 motherboards, a BIOS / UEFI update is first necessary so that the processor is supported by the motherboard. But that is no longer a problem, because many B550 AM4 mainboards now have a BIOS / UEFI flash button, with the help of which the BIOS / UEFI can be updated even if there's no suitable / supported CPU, no RAM and no graphics card, flying blind so to speak. The MSI B550 Gaming Edge Wi-Fi motherboard also offers this function. The function is described in the mainboard manual.
