First Time Build PC - Any recommended?

Posted by NightDebugger@reddit | buildapc | View on Reddit | 4 comments

Hello! I am a web developer looking to build my first PC for React development and high-FPS gaming (mostly Fortnite).

Budget: 1500 USD

Components:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7600

Motherboard: MSI PRO B650M-B

GPU: Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 8GB

Memory: Kingston Fury Beast 16GB (2x8) DDR5 5600MHz RGB

SSD: Kingston NV3 500GB M.2 NVMe PCIe 4.0

Power Supply: AeroCool LUX 550W 80 Plus Bronze

Case: AeroCool Viewport-Mini ARGB Stylish w/ Panoramic View

Cooling: Thermalright Burst Assassin 120 SE ARGB

Questions:

Since I am a developer, should I prioritize upgrading to **32GB of RAM** now, or is 16GB okay to start?
Is the **550W PSU** reliable enough for this build, or should I swap it for a Gold-rated unit?

Thanks for the help!

This is a very shit build with an explosive PSU

How much memory you need depends on how large your projects are. 32 GB might be a good idea.

The gold rating does not describe realiability but efficiency.

The 7600X is usually cheaper than the 7600.

The NV3 often uses QLC flash, which has low durability and becomes noticeably slower after a few years. There are better drives with TLC flash.

We cannot recommend better components when you're lying about your country.

my budget is 1,000 JOD, which is about 1,500 USD. Local prices are just higher here.

My projects aren't very large right now, so 16GB might do for a start. Also, this is based on a local pre-built I found link

use pcpartpicker to help you make a structured list. It'll also put in potential compatibility issues. That PSU line is rated E on the tier list, I'd avoid like the plague.
