Question Getting a new PC and need help

[fantasysokka]

Hello, I am planning on buying this PC this month and need help, will these components work together, and any improvements I could make? I am hoping it will last a long time. Will it be good to upgrade later for a better CPU and Grapich Card? This is for 2k Gaming, and I am hoping it will give me 120+ FPS on High/Ultra setting, I am fine with lowering some options down a bit. Also, I am not sure if these SSDs had DRAM, I think they do but not sure. Also is the cooler good and will it keep the CPU cool? Your help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Graphics Card: RTX 4070 SUPER Gainward Ghost 12GB
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7700X
Motherboard: Gigabyte B650 Eagel
RAM: DDR5 32GB 6000MHz Kingston Fury Beast RGB CL36 2X16GB
SSD: Samsung SSD 970 EVO Plus 1TB
2 SSD: Samsung SSD 970 EVO Plus 500GBNVMe M.2
Power Supply: ASUS PSU TUF-GAMING-850G850W 80Plus Gold
Case: Thermaltake S200 TG ARGB Black
Cooling: Arctic Freezer 34 eSports DUO

Is this a pre-built or are you buying those parts to build it yourself? And what is your budget?

Because for a few more bucks you could get a 7900x or even a 9900x. The best right now are the X3Ds but they are hard to get at msrp.

Also, why going with gen 3 NVMe? Your board supports gen 4 so you should go with that (if you want Samsung get the 980 pro). And I also don't understand the two 500 GB. You should get a 500 GB (or 1TB) for the system and a 2 TB (or a 4 TB) for the games.

You should also get CL30 for the RAM instead of CL36.

I would avoid this cooler. If you really want to go with air cooling Noctua is a safe choice. Or go with a liquid cooler (Corsair, Asus, NZXT).

As far as I know, Thermaltake cases usually don't allow a very good air flow. In general, reviewers hate them but users say they are ok. I personally used one a few years ago and my temperatures were terrible. Maybe they are better now, I don't know. I use a Corsair Crystal 570x and it's wonderful (although the cable management cool be better but the air flow is great).

Definitely not going to work, because you spelled Eagle wrong. No, just kidding.

To begin with, you really do not want that PSU. As just about every review of it has stated, it's a good platform completely ruined by a terrible cooling curve and configuration. Avoid this model.

So, what country are you in?

How much does the configuration you have assembled their total in parts cost?

What is the amount you need to remain within for your budget?

Hi, thank you very much. My budget is around 2000-2500 Euros. This is a prebuilt, with some changes that I made. Unfortunately, the price difference for the next better CPU is a bit too high, so I will have to go with this one. I will upgrade later down the line.

Sorry for the misunderstanding I meant that I will have two SSDs so I marked it as second but now that I see it it is confusing. I thought of buying one 1TB and one 500GB, to have OS on the 500GB and games on the 1TB one. I didn't know about the Gen 3 stuff, so I took a look and I found KINGSTON FURY Renegade 1TB SSD with Heatsink, M.2 2280, PCIe 4.0 NVMe, Read/Write 7300/6000MB/s, Random Read/Write: 900K/1000K IOPS.

Is this Gen 4 and does it have DRAM? If it is I will go with 2x of these.

For the RAM unfortunately this is the best one they have. Is there a big noticeable difference between CL30 and CL36?

For the cooler, I will have to check more but I believe this was the best one they had, but will ask them. Is THERMALRIGHT Peerless Assassin 120 better?

For the case is the LC-Power Case Gaming 803B better? Could it fit everything?

Hi, thank you very much. I am in Bosnia and Hercegovina. My budget is around 2000-2500 Euros. The above setup comes at around 2.2k where I am from.

I checked the PSUs and I found two different ones but I am not sure which is better. I found the 850W Thermaltake GF2 ARGB 80+ Gold Fully modular and Gigabyte PSU 850W Gold Modular 80+ GOLD

Yes, this Kingston Fury Renegade is Gen 4 and it has DRAM cache (see specifications section):

https://www.kingston.com/en/ssd/gaming/kingston-fury-renegade-nvme-m2-ssd

The difference between CL30 and CL36 is not "big", you might not notice it, but it's there and since the price is usually not much higher for the tighter timing it's better to go with 30, if it's available of course.

Tom's Hardware gave a perfect score of 5 stars to the Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE, so if you can get that I guess it's a safe choice.

For the case, since it's a prebuilt the company that builds it for you will tell you if it cannot fit everything. But the 803B support up to 320 mm graphics cards, and the 4070 Super is 267 mm long so it should be ok.

Avoid Thermaltake. If you can get Corsair, Seasonic or Evga go with one of these. I have never had a Gigabyte PSU but I read that some models are bad some are good, never really great.
