Build Advice My first gaming PC build ?

[Lilo25]

Good day all

Would someone perhaps give me advice on my component selection for my first gaming pc. I want something that I would be able to upgrade in future. I am not a prof gamer but I do not want any difficulties when I want to play AAA games.
I was also wondering if my power supply is not perhaps too big as apparently you can build in a 10%, according to part picker my total watt is around 345 wattage.

CPU - Ryzen 5 7600 5.10GHz 6-Core Zen 4 Socket AM5

GPU - AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT

Motherboard - Gigabyte B850 GAMING WIFI6

PSU - Super Flower SF-650F14GE Leadex III GE 650W 80 Plus Gold ATX

RAM - Mushkin Redline 32GB(2x16GB) DDR5

Storage - XPG GAMMIX S70 BLADE 2TB M.2

Case - Antec VCX200 RGB Elite ATX Mid-Tower

Thank you,
L

There's no such thing as "Too big PSU" it will draw only power required not more, You will not save much money by going lower than 650W which is about an average PSU nowadays. That Power calculator is not very accurate and you want to have as much reserve power as possible.
Modern PSUs of good make and model have at least 5-10 year warranty (that one has 10) and you might want to upgrade GPU and/or other parts that will require more power and you will have to buy stronger one duplicating your expenses, 10 years is loooooong time for PCs.

Thank you Mike for your feedback, much appreciated!

Good choice of components. It all comes down to the resolution that you are targeting with your build. You should be fine with 1080p and 2k, but 4k would be tough. Also, make sure that your RAM is CL30 6000MHZ.

All looks like a balanced build. Only thing to mention is make sure that the 9060 XT GPU is the 16GB version and not an 8GB one.

Yes, the 1080p & 1440 was the idea. Thank you for the RAM advice, mine is CL46 with 5600mhz. I was so focused on CPU & GPU I did not put any consideration into the RAM. Thank you! Think I will change to the TeamGroup Vulcan 32GB DDR5 6000MHz CL30
Will prob not regret it!
Thanks again 👍
