I live in Australia, will be for gaming only.

Also i don't know how to get the nicely formatted table on mobile so here's the link to my pcpartpicker list. Cheers.

Realistically, you would only need 6000mhz for a 9800x3d
Your Windows key that you plan on getting is an OEM. It is tied to the motherboard. That means if you ever upgrade your motherboard or get a new pc, it wont transfer

3 Samsung SSDs are overpriced right now. I would swap it out for a cheaper brand

For some fucked up reason, that klev ram is cheaper than all the 6000mhz i can find haha.
Sweet didnt know that, thankyou.
Anything in particular to avoid or are all main brand ssd's okay?

Thanks for your input my friend

From what I understand:

6000 MHz is kind of the “sweet spot” for AMD because it runs in a 1:1 ratio (memory and controller are in sync → better latency)
6400 MHz can be faster on paper, but it often runs in 2:1, which adds latency and can cancel out the speed gain

For X3D CPUs specifically:

The extra cache means RAM speed doesn’t matter as much anyway
The difference between 6000 and 6400 is usually really small in games (like a couple FPS at most)

So basically:

6000 = safe, optimal, 1:1, plug-and-play
6400 = might run 2:1, might need tweaking, might not be any faster

As for the ssd, you can get a crucial p310 for 60% of the price

Hello, your comment has been removed. Please note the following from our subreddit rules:

Rule 3 : No piracy or grey-market software keys

This includes suggesting, hinting, or in any way implying to someone that piracy, or violation of license agreements is an option.
If a license key is abnormally cheap (think $5 - $30), it is probably grey market, and thus forbidden on /r/buildapc.
