Hi guys, I just discover this amazing forum and I would like to share with you my idea for a new gaming build:


CPU: Intel i5 12400F

CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-U12S (chromax.black)

MOBO: MSI MAG Z690 TOMAHAWK WIFI DDR4 ATX

RAM: Kingston Fury BEAST 16GB (8GB x2) DDR4 3200MHz Black


Storage: WD SN550 2TB (this component is the only one I already have, keep from my current PC)

Graphic Card: MSI RTX 3070ti SUPREM X

Case: Corsair 4000D Tempered Black

Power Supply Unit: MSI MPG A750GF 750W 80Plus Gold

Monitor: AOC CQ32G2E



I'm not sure about RAM, MOBO... I would like to get your feedbacks, opinions, suggestions...
Thanks a lot

I'd look at a H670 or B660 board to pair up with that cpu. Here's a few examples.

Wow, this monitor looks cool!

But I have a question concerning IPS, the contrast rate is lover compare to VA monitor. I really like deep blacks... Do you thing is available a monitor that can offer blacks similar to OLED TV?

Thanks

Yes, I read that article, very interesting.
I ask my IT guy to let me try two monitors, one IPS and one VA, I would like to see the difference in real life, than I can pick the one I like the most.

Thanks

Thanks for your reply

I'm getting a i7-12700k at the end...
The price difference is not so high and looks a good investment in performances

GDDR 5 build is still not a convenient choice? Gaming purpose only...

Thx
