    xfx radeon rx 580 8gb - in 4k setup

    You'll probably have to turn down settings and turn off anti aliasing. From what I've read your only going to get 20-30 fps. That card is great for 1080p, not so much for 4K.

    CPU upgrade query

    Huge difference between the two price wise. $100 vs $300 US. Above suggestion is probably a better idea.

    rate my setup

    I would recommend you change the hard drive to an SSD. Even if you have to spend a bit more. If you want to use the hard drive as storage or backups, that's fine, but now a days SSD is the way to go for the main drive. Major speed difference.

    RGB Issues

    I'm pretty sure iCue has a rainbow effect tab built in. I'm running it right now. Might be a bit hard to find, but it's in there.

    Question Why Does My PC Keep Rebooting During Games?

    In both instances, PSU or RAM, wouldn't you think it should be a problem everywhere? Not just on 1 particular game. Definitely odd.

    Sorry STaLLiOnO Didn't mean to hijack your thread. I'll shut up. Felt I had to defend "my" choices. Evidently all my choices were wrong. Good luck with your build.

    Question Why Does My PC Keep Rebooting During Games?

    I am far from an expert but in my instance, I had attempted to change my screen refresh rate from 60hz to 75hz which was listed as an option. Didn't work out. Black screen with The Golf Club 2 which isn't that demanding on a GPU. Possibly re-seat your GPU and check connections ? Any recent...

    My 1st PC Build.. Thoughts

    Yeah there is a couple things you probably got me on. The monitor, I paid only $250. I did look at the RX 5700 XT but got my RTX 2060 for $359. The cpu I got for $189 figuring I can upgrade later. https://www.pcgamesn.com/intel-core-i5-8400-review-benchmarks Also at the time it's the best, least...

    "you can get much better for $2000". I'd be curious as to what you'd suggest. I'm no expert but did exhaustive research before buying and would like to see your recommendation.
