Hey everyone

Was able to order a 5700xt, it should arrive in 3 days or so.

My current gaming desktop is an old i7 930 with a geforce 750ti, I am thinking of buying/building a new system to house the new 5700xt.

Can anyone help with a parts list I can start ordering for a solid build?  Was thinking amd but im flexible, just looking for a solid build.  Alot of the youtube builds are decent but the prices and items they link are all much higher than when the video was made, if anyone has a good build/parts list with current pricing id appreciate it. 

I need everything but the GPU. 

Id prefer to buy quality parts, of good build that have either a solid warranty or will last me a long time.  At least for the PSU and the motherboard.  The ram, I am hoping to get 2 sticks for dual channel mode.  Other than that my only other preference would be for future upgradeability of the motherboard (ie, i hope to put a 2nd gpu in there someday when prices/availability comes around so a big enough case and mobo for that)

This rig will be mainly for gaming, and will likely run at least 18 hours a day for the next 3 years+

Any and all efforts spent compiling lists will be greatly appreciated!!!!
You said the videos on youtube consists of pc parts that are too costly and yet you said you want quality build, are you listening to yourself? Anyways, you only need a motherboard with a PCIe slot for gpu since you are going to mine with just one RX5700XT, to cut down the costs it's better to buy a used  complete PC, just insert the gpu and power it up it's not hard
