Hi guys, I’m not an expert in these matters but I’m intending to build a PC with the following specs. Would really appreciate your help in reviewing it, letting me know if there’s any bad or incompatible parts etc. It comes out to about 1370 USD after everything(taxes etc included). Thank you!

It depends on what's your use case scenario. And what monitor you want to use. And what productivity you want to do if any. If it's for gaming, good parts, you might want a more powerful CPU like AMD 9700X or even 9800X3D if you're a serious gamer. Maybe a bit more powerful GPU, like a AMD 9070 or 9070XT. I'd say these 2 parts are more future proof (will serve you well for at least 5 years) vs what you have above.

Yeah for gaming mostly, sorry i forgot to mention. On a 1440p monitor but I can play on 1080p just fine if need be.
Am considering a ryzen 7 7800x3d or ryzen 7 9700x instead for the cpu, which would you recommend?
With the 9700x it would come out to $1548 and with the 7800x3d its $1583.
Thanks for your help!

Refresh rate/fps target? Getting 60fps hardware is different than aiming for 144 (the more frames the more powerful hardware you need). 7800X3D is better for gaming than 9700X. 6000mt CL28 is excellent RAM for your needs.

140 ideally yeah, its a 144hz monitor. Do you think i can hit that on most games with this set-up? or with the 7800x3d?
mahanddeem@reddit
7800XT will not make you hit that target, especially for newest games. And yes for the second question.

Hey, thanks for all your help so far. Could i get your opinion on picking between a 7800xt + 7800x3d or a 9070xt + ryzen 5 7600?

9070xt and 7600

Cheers, thanks for the help. Not really one to play on highest settings anyway. Will likely go for the 7800x3d.

The 9070xt and 7600 if you have to choose
