Hello all of you out there in the forum.
I am just searching together new hardware to create my new desktop PC System.
I haven't bother looking at the hardware PC market for a long time and was astonished by the fact that you actually can by 128 core CPU's... who would have been imagining this 20 years ago.
Maybe you guys can give me a hand here or have some recommendations or general advice.
Thanks to the currently high

So far my initial research has led me to the following possible configuration:
AMD:
Motherboard: Asus Prime X370-A AMD X370 So.AM4 Dual Channel DDR ATX Retail
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 1700X 8x 3.40GHz So.AM4 WOF
Cooler: Thermalright HR-02 Macho Rev. B Tower Cooler
RAM: 16GB (2x 8192MB) Corsair Vengeance LPX black DDR4-3600 DIMM CL18-19-19-39 Dual Kit
Graphic Card: 6GB Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1060 Windforce OC Aktiv PCIe 3.0 x16 1xDisplayPort / 1xHDMI 2.0 / 2xDVI (Retail)
Case: be quiet! Silent Base 800 insulated Midi Tower (without Power Supply) black
Power Supply: 650 Watt be quiet! Dark Power Pro 11 Modular 80+ Platinum
SSD: 480GB SanDisk Ultra II 2.5" (6.4cm) SATA 6Gb/s TLC Toggle (SDSSDHII-480G-G25)
HDD: 1000GB Seagate Desktop HDD ST1000DM003 32MB 3.5" (8.9cm) SATA 6Gb/s
DVDRW: LiteOn iHAS324 DVD-RW SATA intern black Retail
I already have 3x 1000GB Seagate Desktop HDD ST1000DM003 32MB 3.5" (8.9cm) SATA 6Gb/s currently running as a raid 5 which needs expansion.
Would this configuration be ok? Or maybe go for a Intel System with the same specs/price.
