Hi, im completly newbie in pc builds. What do you think / should i have any problems with this am4 build? (I already have everything except cpu and motherboard)
Gpu: rtx 4060
Psu: Corsair rm1000e
Cpu: Ryzen 9 5950x
Motherboard: Asus rog strix b550-A
Ram: 32gb 3600

Yeah. Why the 5950x? It's hardly the most efficient option for gaming, nor is it any faster than a 5800x. THe x3d zen 3 variants will outperform it too in games.

Have you seen the prices of them these days? :'( 350-420eu
According_Spare7788@reddit
I suppose you mean the 5800x3d?
I was more talking about the 5500x3d. It's abotu $170 new in my region.

What kind of "problems" are you expecting?
The PSU is definitely overkill. But if you already own it, no need to change anything.

The psu is actually the only thing i still can return back. 850w would be fine?
Calm-Bid-8256@reddit
Neither the CPU or GPU need more than 150W each.
Even 650W would be enough here. If you plan to upgrade the GPU in the future i'd go 850W max. Leaves you tons of headroom and will save you money
