Hey all

Friend wants to buy these parts to build his gaming pc

My only thought was a exhaust fan and maybe more storage?

Everything seems a-ok aside from 2 points:
1.Switch psu to Seasonic Prime TX (if he is keen on 1,6kw which is kind of too much imo) or Seasonic Prime Px 1,3kw. Seasonic prime or gold and above models have 12 years warranty, no bull$hit I just recently got a refund for a 10yo psu that failed and they paid full price from invoice.
2.I guess they're a fan of corsair but why pay almost 3x for inferior cpu cooler when one from arctic is way cheaper and way more efficient + still has rgb unless they're reeeeeealy keen on that argb cr@p ... arctic

Possibly?

Stupid reason to go for a way overpriced Seasonic. You just pay the warranty by your own. It doesn't even have a native 12+4 PCIe connector. My recommandation is https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product...-fully-modular-atx-power-supply-cp-9020261-na or https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product...ertified-fully-modular-atx-power-supply-bn339 Both a lot cheaper than a 1300w SS Prime for the same quality at least and probably better.

Got some questions:

Why 14900k? i would suggest Intel systems for video editing rigs cuz they got quick sync feature. If it is gaming, the 7800X3D is the best CPU right now.

We've run thousands of CPU benchmarks on all new and older Intel and AMD CPUs and ranked them.

Why 64gb ram? if its productivity based, i understand. gaming and streaming? 32gb is more than enough.

With that said, if you are looking for a gaming build:

B650 mobo with pcie 5.0 ssd support

big and quiet air cooler with digital temp readout
