Hi all,
I feel like this is quite big. We've secured the Ryzen 5 3500X and they will be arriving in November. The major difference between the 3500X and 3600 is the 3500X has 6 threads while the 3600 has 12, however both have 6 cores, the same clock speeds and the 3500X just happens to come in quite a nice way under the 3600 in price. Here is a performance comparison which shows gaming is equal whereas the workstation is understandably lower due to the fewer threads. But for gaming, we're sweet.
So, the first two systems we're offering are base spec options featuring 5700 XT and RTX 2080 Super GPUs.
You will also notice that we have added an M-ATX case upgrade option from the Leaper Pro: the Cooler Master MasterBox NR400 for $79. This is directly due to OzB community feedback with particular thanks to a few folks who assisted in the process. Obviously there were almost endless options but we felt this ticked the boxes for looks and functionality - having a mesh front panel for optimised airflow, tempered glass side panel and improved quality and features - and cost (longer assembly is required on our end). Keen to hear your feedback. This is now available on all systems so if you were holding off, now might be the time!

Popular upgrades are 16GB 2400MHz RAM: $79, B350 MB: $39 and larger SSDs (480GB, 240GB NVME, and 1TB): $46-$109.
Both systems come with respective AMD/NVIDIA code for the GPU (Ghost Recon or borderlands 3 for 5700 XT and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare for RTX 2080).
Please allow longer for delivery for these systems - as said we are expecting the CPUs to land in the first week of November but we will update customers who purchase.
Let me know what other GPUs you'd like to see paired with the 3500X too and I'll whip em up.
Cheers
