Advice for PC build
Posted by Luky727969@reddit | buildapc | View on Reddit | 4 comments
Hey everyone, I’m looking for feedback before ordering parts for a new PC build.
Goal: 1080p / 1440p gaming (mostly RPGs like Cyberpunk 2077, God of War Ragnarok, Horizon Forbidden West, etc.)
Budget: \~€1,400 (Prices are from today (EU local pricing))
Build:
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7600X – €167.90
- GPU: ASUS Dual Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB – €399.40
- Motherboard: ASRock B850M-X WiFi R2.0 – €112.90
- RAM: 32GB DDR5 6000MHz CL30 (Patriot Viper Venom) – €405.90
- SSD: 1TB WD Black SN7100 NVMe – €162.90
- Cooler: Arctic Freezer 36 – €30.90
- PSU: Seasonic Core GC-750 ATX 3.1 – €71.90
- Case: ADATA XPG Valor Mesh – €40.90
Total: €1392.70
I’m mainly unsure about:
- RAM price/value (32GB vs 16GB for gaming)
- GPU choice (AMD vs NVIDIA, drivers, DLSS vs FSR)
- Any potential bottlenecks or better value swaps
I’m also considering a trade-off:
32GB RAM with this GPU, or 16GB RAM and using the savings to step up to a stronger GPU.
Which option makes more sense for 1080p/1440p gaming in 2026?
Any feedback appreciated!

Look up for used ram, that price is insane.

Just here to sing the praises of the 9060XT 16gb, runs most games at 1440p medium-high settings. I came from consoles and find it to be a very versatile and powerful card for its price

What CPU do you use?
What kinda FPS do you get in game on it in 1440p?
