Hello,

I want to build the following PC (90% work, 10% gaming. Will have around 15 browser tabs open and at least 30 programs open at the same time - Im a Poker player and trader and this is my main work):

Harddrive Samsung 870 QVO 2TB
Motherboard MSI Mpg X570
Processor AMD Ryzen 7 5800X
RAM Corsair Vengeance LPX 32gb DDR4
Case Corsair Carbide Series 100R
Cooling be quiet! Dark Rock 200 W
Power Supply be quiet! 9 ATX BN303

Is this so far okay?

Regarding graphics card, I want to have a huge monitor, something like LG CX or C1 OLED but not sure which graphic card I need
Regarding peripherals, everything will be wireless so my PC needs bluetooth compatibility.

Could anyone confirm if this all fits together and looks fine and which graphics card should I get?

What are you working on? To me its a little overkill just for working and not gaming.
But yeah all of them will fit but you forgot to mention ram so make sure to buy ram that is ddr4. Please note that the ryzen 5 5800x does not have an integrated gpu so youll need to buy a discrete gpu.
I recommened you to buy a rx 460 or maybe a gtx 950 those gpu support 4k and hdr and most importantly its cheap.
If your working on game design or graphics design something that relates to graphics, then dont buy those gpu i mention above, buy an expensive one depends on your budget.
And finally if you want your peripherals to be wireless, buy a bluetooth adapter.

I am a Poker player and trader. RAM is Corsair Vengeance LPX 32gb DDR4.
Will GTX 950 work on the monitor that I am looking to buy? The LG CX or C1 OLED

Sure it will work on the monitor. To me i wouldnt call it a monitor ill just call it a tv.
But yeah any tv would work on that gpu it has a hdmi port that would connect to your tv and multiple ports so you can connect it to a secondary monitor or tv whatever you call it.

Do you plan on using up 2TB? QVO (QLC) drives are quite a bit slower than most TLC based drives. They are about storage density, not performance.

I would recommend a 512GB NVMe SSD for the OS and your applications, you can keep the 2TB drive for bulk storage.

Not really, but I will go ahead for the 512GB NVMe SSD that you recommend and will take 1TB drive for bulk storage.

So all in all the build is good for my working purposes?

I have compiled a build that meets all of your requirements with some part changes for better performance and the above suggested storage array. I just want to add that if you want the CX or C1 OLED to operate at 10-bit color 4k 120hz with 4:4:4 chroma subsampling you will need a newer graphics card with an HDMI 2.1 port and this cable. I personally use a 55 inch CX OLED in my setup mounted on my wall about 4 feet from my eyes angled down and I love it. The C1 OLEDs only difference is coming with the new OS for the TV and some things that are slightly updated. They use the same exact panel and look exactly the same when viewing content though.

Thank you very much.

So you can mount this huge monitor on the wall? Is this with a regular monitor wall mounter/holder or whatever they are called?

Okay, this build looks amazing and will go with the newer video card. Thank you so much for the kind help!

So actually, the graphics card is a little bit too expensive for my taste. I do not play games (just 10% of the time) and do just work that does not require a good graphics card. But as you know I want the 55 inch CX OLED. Do you think that we can cut the cost of the graphics card and get a cheaper ones that still supports the CX OLED?

This is currently the cheapest option because you require an HDMI 2.1 port for all of the features of the CX /C1 OLED. You cannot use 120hz without it, only 60hz

What is the difference between the RTX 3060 with 2 fans and 3 fans? Both have an HDMI 2.1 port but the RTX 3060 with 2 fans is much cheaper. Do you know?

Again a question regarding the video card RTX 3060 12 GB. I also see RTX 3060 8 GB. Will it be a problem having this one with the monitor I want? I am not a tech savy and dont understand the difference between 8 and 12 GB?

I also want to use bluetooth speakers, mouse and keyboard. Is this PC that you suggested compatible for that? Thank you again!

The "3060 ti 8gb" is a substantially faster card than the "3060 12gb." Th motherboard comes with wifi and Bluetooth built in so everything should be compatible.

I got a mount like this one but it had -20 degrees of down tilt.

Hey again, been some time, finally ordered all the PC parts that you recommended. Do you mind if I ask you a question regarding the monitor again?

I am looking for a 55 inch or higher monitor. We discussed that I want to get the LG OLED C1 or CX. But there seem to be so many different model numbers. I tried to figure out the differences but my brain started to hurt.

So which of the new monitors could I get and what would be the model number? I think I want to get something like this but not sure if that is a new model or not? Also the name is OLED65CXPUA and there are many more names like 65C19LA (which is so much cheaper compared to other 65 inch models) or something like that. Or the LG OLED65C17LB which is also 65 inch but much more expensive. Pretty confusing. Do you understand monitors or should I ask in the display forum and ask someone else?

From what I can tell the differences between the CX PUA, PUB, and AUA is that the PUA is WiSA certified (wireless speaker tech) and that is about it. They are exactly the same with maybe a color change on the stand as some have stated. They are also made in different geographic locations, which seems to not matter as far as the product quality goes.

The C1 55 inch seems to be 1300.00;

The C1 65 inch seems to be 1800.00;

The CX 55 / 65 inch seems to be either out of stock, or the same or more price than the C1's. If you can find a 65 inch CX for 1600 or less I would get that for a 65 inch, if you can find a 55 inch CX at 1150 or less I would grab that for a 55 inch. If you are willing to spend it the newest G1 from LG has a brighter screen and may be worth the upgrade because it costs about the same at 55 inches as a C1 does at 65 inches.
