[AlexTheFern]

[Dj0gany]

Sure,if you cant grab the 3060Ti.

 

[AlexTheFern]

no no the non-ti 3060 releasing next month

 

[Dj0gany]

Exactly

 

[Dj0gany]

I meant get the 3060,if cant grab a 3060ti

 

[AlexTheFern]

ohhhhhhh wait im dumb i thought you said can not cant

 

[AlexTheFern]

would the 3060ti be a better idea?

 

[Dj0gany]

So you've decided to get the 10400F.
What about motherboard,ram,psu,case,storage?

 

[Dj0gany]

For 4K AAA gaming 3060Ti isnt really recommended,thats 3080's job.
For 1080p/1440p max settings RTX on,3060Ti is perfect.

Sure 500gb enough for you?
I would get a modern version of the 212

Its just newer,possibly better,and has customizable rgb.
