Posted by Electronic-Nail5005@reddit | buildapc | View on Reddit | 11 comments
Hi folks. I’ve been trying to create a build for daily usage. Mostly planing to play games like competitive Dota and CS2 and new coming AAA projects. So far I’ve came with this build. Can you please rate it and maybe give some recommendations what’s good and what I should change if needed?
I’m based in Republic of Moldova and I’ll put the prices for each component next to it
- CPU
AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D - 371$
- GPU
PURE AMD Radeon™ RX 9070 XT OC - 800$
- Motherboard
ASRock B850 Pro-A ATX - 208$
- PSU
Chieftec Vega M PPG-850-C, 80+ Gold - 120$
- Cooler for CPU
DEEPCOOL Cooler "AG400 BK ARGB" - 29$
- RAM, I’m debating what’s the best choice here:
a. Corsair Vengeance 32GB(2X16GB) 6000Mhz CL36 - 325$
b. LEXAR THOR Z RGB 32GB(2X16GB) 6000Mhz CL36 - 325$
c. Corsair Dominator Titanium RGB White 32GB(2X16GB) 7200Mhz CL34 - 348$ but says XMP ready, not sure if they’re that good for Ryzen?
d. Corsair Dominator Titanium RGB 32GB(2X16GB) 6000Mhz CL30 White - 348$ same thing as above I believe
e. Kingston FURY Renegade White 32GB, 6000 MHz, CL32 - 319$
- SSD debating too…
Samsung 990 PRO 1TB - 220$
Samsung 990 EVO Plus - 185$
- Case. Not sure if I should bring the aquarium one since the GPU might be heating too much?
DARKFLASH PC Case ATX DPX90 Black - 52$
GAMEMAX Storm 2 AB - 50$

I’d go with a different ram that has a lower CL personally. Also, make sure the ram is compatible with your mobo AND has an onboard expo profile.

I’d skip the ASRock board just to be on the safe side — there have been enough reports lately about Ryzen CPUs dying on AM5 to at least raise concerns.
If you go MSI, just make sure the board actually has PCIe Gen 5 for the GPU, since quite a few B850 boards are limited to Gen 4. Gigabyte boards are generally fine in that regard.
For the cooler, I’d look at the Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 — cheap dual tower, much better than the AG400.
For RAM, stick with 6000 MHz, that’s the sweet spot for Ryzen. Just make sure the sticks aren’t too tall so they don’t interfere with the cooler. I’d probably go with the Vengeance.
For storage, you could save some money with something like a KC3000 or SN850X (both with DRAM), if they’re cheaper. If you prefer Samsung, then 990 Pro is the better pick.
Case is mostly preference.

Thanks, we don’t have the thermal right cooler here though, I’ve searched it.

If you can’t find Thermalright, look at ID-Cooling FROZN A620 Pro, PCCooler RT620Pro or Montech NX600 – all solid alternatives. Just pick whichever is available or cheaper.

Welp, neither is available, mind taking a look at alternatives on this link? Mainly buying everything from this store…

I don’t really see any cheaper decent alternatives on that site, so I’d look at these options:

All in all, solid construction. As far as RAM is concerned for Ryzen processors, the ideal combination is 6000 with CL30 or CL32. The 7200 package, however, is tailored towards Intel processors. AG400 would be fine but you might want a more powerful cooler for 7800X3D. 990 EVO Plus should suffice when it comes to SSDs for gaming, so no need to spend extra here. The 9070 XT may be quite hot though.
