Question Is my setup good for gaming?

[Emperorlinox]

I have posted a thread a while back about this but this time I got a new setup and was wondering if this is any better
Here are the specs:

GPU: MSI RX 6950 XT 16gb GDDR6
Processor: Ryzen 7 7700x
Motherboard: X670E AORUS Master
RAM: 32GB DDR5 6000mhz
PSU: Platinum 850 Watts
Cooler: Deepcool LE500-240mm Liquid
Storage: Samsung 1TB

Have you already purchased those components? What country are you located, what is your budget and what is your monitor resolution?

 

[Why_Me]

I see from your previous thread you game at 1440P and you are located in Indonesia.

Correct and I'm planning to buy them in early May and I downgraded my budget bit to 2250 USD

Also I decided to just use one of my TV's so I don't need to spend too much of my budget on a monitor but its capped at 60hz

Is the board PCie 5.0?
The cooler And the board just saves a couple bucks so it doesn't really matter to me

So its equivalent to the one I picked but cheaper?

 

[Emperorlinox]

Alright thanks so much you helped me save 3M Rp on my setup

 

[Why_Me]

The board you chose has more PCIe lanes which allows for dual M.2 SSD's. Not a big deal these days seeing how most gamers are going with a single 2TB SSD.

I just need 1 1TB SSD

 

[Emperorlinox]

So overall do you think the setup is good?

Also I found another one its the ASUS ROG Strip B650E-F Gaming Wifi and its $379

I would look at the least expensive board that gives you PCIe 5.0

Alright thanks I got my build ready and hopefully it works well

Actually 1 more question
Does it Support 6000mhz

Yes.

 

[Emperorlinox]

Ok then

if i was going to throw my advice depending on the case go a 360mm arctic freezer ii or a 280mm arctic freezer on the 7700x ..
the ZEN4 parts love to boost to 95c

 

[Vic 40]

the ZEN4 parts love to boost to 95c

As they are expected to. If they run at 95C is that fine, what you want at that temp is highest boost possible. Not saying that a cooler running cpu isn't nice to have, but 95C is fine.

my 7600x wouldnt go past 85c with the 420mm and the 7800x3d wont go past 76c in cinebench R23 multi
100% overkill and trying to hide that 420mm in cases isnt easy ..
I ended up with the thermal take ceres 500 case to fit my arctic freezer ii 420mm in ( honestly i prefer sff builds but necessity is the cause of invention )

all i was saying is a 240mm might not be the best option for a 7700x ..

Yes i know there made to boost to 95c but its like a psu to me why buy just enough wattage to save money then complain if there is issues down the track ..

maybe just me but protecting the important things is most important and 2 of the most is 1. power supply 2. cpu cooling ..

I have no issue with what people buy and understand pc building can be and is expensive and some people just dont have the disposable income as other people but buying cheap <Mod Edit> products to save money or skimping on the important things doesnt often end up great !!
