2 Gaming Computers (Entschuldigung für das Englisch)

Choose the Boxed Version of the CPU to get better support by Intel (Three-Year Limited Warranty). As End-User always take boxed CPUs.

On this level of hardware you might also want to take faster RAM. Maybe 3200MHz oder even faster.

@ monitor: Seems to be 100% G-Sync Compatible - Nice. 👍

Thanks a lot!

Surprisingly, the boxed version is even cheaper.

Apparently G Skill SniperX 3600 doesn't cost much more than the 3200 sticks, so I went for that. I'd almost say it's suspiciously cheap in comparison to other products, but I hope it will be fine since G Skill are generally recommended?

1. Since we don't have high requirements regarding frames per second, is there a significant disadvantage in buying a G-Sync compatible monitor as opposed to an actual G-Sync? Currently considering the AOC G2590PX.

Freesync Monitors are missing Variable Overdrive which can lead to ghosting effects at low refresh rates.
Often depends on the perception of the user. I personally would'nt call it significant.

2. The two computers would be put in a room that gets very very hot in the summer, so would extra good fans make sense?

Depends on the case itself. Maybe additional fans (another 200mm for the top for example).

3. Since some games are very cpu heavy (especially when using mods), I thought building a computer around the 9900K & rtx 2070 Super, but I'm far from being an expert so maybe I'm wrong in thinking that.

Should do well especially for a 100% gaming system.

5. My wife would be very happy to choose her own casing. How would I know what casing fits the rest of the parts?

First the case has to support ATX form factor so the Motherboard and ATX-PSU will fit in.
Then she has to take care that the height of the CPU cooler fits into the case, and the lenght of the graphic card.
At last the connectors of the case should support the possibilities of the Mainboard (e.g. USB-C).

It depends on the timings of the RAM
You can calculate the absolute latency with this calculator:
https://notkyon.moe/ram-latency.htm

3200-CL16 -> 10ns
3600-CL19 -> 10.555555ns
3600-CL17 -> 9.4444444ns

* Überflüssiges Zitat editiert! *
Very appropriate the detailed comment, Joc! I feel like I understand things much better now thanks to you, so thank you for that! :)

I've played around with the build, now resting at:

Crucial MX500 1TB, SATA
Intel Core i9-9900K, 8x 3.60GHz, boxed without cooler
Corsair Vengeance LPX Black DIMM Kit 32GB, DDR4-3200, CL16-18-18-36
Gainward GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER Phantom GS
Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Pro WIFI
Cooler Master MasterFan Pro 140 Airflow RGB, 140mm
Noctua NH-D15
Thermaltake Commander C33 ARGB, Glass Window
be quiet! Straight Power 11 750W ATX 2.4
AOC G2590PX G2 Esports Signature Edition, 24.5 "


So unless someone spots a new mistake I've made, I'll go on and order this in the next few days. Thanks again for all the help so far!

No mistakes but things you might want to consider.

  • Straight Power is a good choice, but 650W would be sufficient. Even with OC.
  • The Cooler Master Fan ist 12V RGB Fan. You can connect it directly to the MB, but it's not addressable, so it can't do the same effects like the case fans. If you want to connect the Fan with the hub of the Thermaltake Case you would need an addressable 5V Fan (3-Pin). I'm not sure if this works out. Maybe you first take a look at the case and the hub and think about the additional fan later.

I've read - and please correct me if I'm wrong - that putting a 750W PSU in such a system would make it more efficient electricity-wise. Does that make sense? If yes, I don't mind investing the extra 10 Euros for that.

About the fan, I'm a bit confused with the connectors. Will this one fit well?
https://geizhals.de/bitfenix-spectre-pro-rgb-schwarz-bff-srgb-14025n-rp-a1739305.html?hloc=de
One place says it has a 3-pin connection, but in another it says 4-pin, so I'm slightly confused. Does that just mean I can either use a 3-pin 5V or 4-pin 12V option?
Otherwise it doesn't look like there's a large selection of 140mm fans on a 3-pin connection that support RGB.
 
This would not fit. It has a 3-Pin connector for the fan power and a 4-Pin connector for the RGB signal.
The RGB connector is needed as 5V 3-Pin.

To tell the truth i'm also a little confused as the RGB hub of the case seems to be an individual solution.
https://basic-tutorials.de/en/therm...3/#thermaltake-commander-c33-lighting-options

There are several 5v Fans, but the 5v signal shouldn't be daisy chained, and the hub of the case seems to have special connectors combining RGB and power signal. So you might also need a 5V RGB hub to split between the additional fan and the Thermaltake Hub.

Also it looks like you can't control the speed of the front Fans.
This will make the system quite loud.

@ PSU: The Bequiet Calculator guesses 650W efficiency 93%, 750W efficency 93.6% - your choice.
 
Oh no, no speed control on the fans is definitely a no go. I suppose I can't just unplug the fans from the case's RGB control panel and plug them directly into the motherboard (at least that's what I'm guessing according to the fan connectors from the picture in the review you've sent)? So I assume the only way to reach fan speed control with this case is to throw away the fans and control panel that come with the case, buy new fans, and plug those directly into the motherboard?

Maybe then I should go back to the original case I had in mind: Cooler Master MasterCase H500 gray, glass window. The problem with it was that Noctua NH-D15 didn't fit in with most RAM sticks, but it seems that with Corsair Vengeance LPX Black DIMM Kit 32GB, DDR4-3200, CL16-18-18-36 it might just fit. Barely, but fit. In that case, will this 3-pin 12V fit as a top fan?

The H500 is RGB with 3-Pin Fans with 4Pin 12V RGB. So yes.

If you prefer adressable RGB you could choose the Coolermaster H500M. It includes a splitter cable for the front Fans so the Hub has a free connector for a third 5V ARGB Fan. I only can't tell if you'd see much of this fan as the 140/200mm Fans are installed on top.
 
Yeah, it certainly isn't worth the bump in price from H500 to H500M, at least to me.

Okay, so I'll take the H500, hoping no new issues would rise. Thank you so much for your time and patience helping me out Joc, I appreciate it very much!
