Deal Details
Not the best deal ever but good parts and is running all replaceable parts so you can grow in this machine, B550 mobo and a standard power supply. Open case may not be best for a machine that will be sitting on carpet or in a house with pets

Ryzen 7 3700x + 3070
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08WZ1H7XL

Ryzen 5 5600x + 3060
https://www.amazon.com/Thermaltak...B09FYNSYBX


The Case appears to be this one https://pcper.com/2021/09/thermal...is-review/


The 3700x+3070 is most likely slightly faster than the 5700x+3060 but will also run a little hotter/power hungry https://www.gpucheck.com/compare/...rrency=usd


Here is the same approx build in PCPartPickerhttps://pcpartpicker.com/list/4jCTN6

These "parts" are ancient relics. To "upgrade" this, you would have to replace everything. If you wanted to keep the 3 year old GPU (why?) you could replace the mobo, processor and RAM and upgrade to a DDR5 setup, but that defeats the point. If this is your price range I recommend saving/holding off for another year until you're able to afford a DDR5 setup with a modern GPU.

This might be the ugliest case ever made and its not really even functional. 30% or more is just open for maximum dust

I'm just here to pile on this abhorrent case. Lord have mercy what in the Optimus Prime hell is that?

It's like what an AI would create if you asked it to combine a PC case, a welding helmet, and the Batmobile.

Quote from Dealer_Of_Slickness :
All I can say about this deal is the OP has a weird perspective on performance if he thinks the 3070 configuration is only "likely slightly faster" than the 3060 one. The 3070 is a whole tier above the 3060 and will be a significant jump in performance.
Okay and what about the CPUs?

It's barely worth considering the CPUs in comparing these two: the RTX 3060 is intended to be a 1080p GPU and the 5600X is 4-5% better in 1080p benchmarks than the 3700X - while the RTX 3070 is intended to be a 1440p GPU where the gap is reduced further to 2% [techpowerup.com] as far as strict CPU performance difference goes.

But because the RTX 3070 will overall perform 50% better than a 3060 [techpowerup.com], as far as gaming goes, there's absolutely no doubt the RTX 3070 PC will vastly outperform the RTX 3060 one for it's intended purpose: gaming.

The 3700X also has more cores than the 5600X and will handle multi-core workloads better such as rendering and encoding - https://www.techpowerup.com/revie...00x/7.html

I swear MSI used to build in this case, and I swear I've seen this case on aliexpress without the branding.

It's an open test bench style case, they are a thing and for some users/uses make sense

now most of those aren't for standard home users who might open once a year at most but they exist for a reason

This one was made because someone said something about making their case look like a demented attack helicopter

Thanks for the helpful information. I was considering this, but with two huskies and a home remodel I don't think it will work. 🙃

Mods, this user is failing to pay their dog tax

Extra points if tax is in the form of them singing the song of their people

Not even going to bother direct responding to the two replies, no point. Not everything you need to buy has to have the highest potential upgradability. You can get away just fine currently with 3700X, upgrade to the 5800x3d if you want, upgrade to whatever else AMD is making for AM4 because they still are. Or you can get away with not upgrading on this specific motherboard and use it for another purpose. Previous socket types are instant e-waste and tons of people still have a use case for it.

Sure if you're an enthusiast that is specifically looking for the best upgrade path, AM5 is the way to go for if you want AMD. That's fine that that's the only thing you want, I can agree with that. But that's not everyone.
Sorry you're wrong on this one.... If you're spending $1000 you can do way, way better, end of story
