Build Advice PC Build suggestions ?

[Lollogrande]

Hello everyone!

I wanted to share my build with you because I could use some great suggestions.

I would like to mention that I have already purchased the CPU and GPU. Now I need to focus on the other components. I'll list my items below.

• CPU - AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D
• GPU - ASUS Dual GeForce® RTX 4070 OC Edition 12GB
• MOBO - GIGABYTE B650 AORUS Elite AX
• RAM - CORSAIR VENGEANCE RGB DDR5 RAM 32GB (2x16GB) 6000MHz CL30 AMD EXPO iCUE
• SSD - SAMSUNG 980 PRO SSD with Heatsink 2TB PCIe Gen 4 NVMe M.2 Internal Solid State Drive
• PSU - Corsair RM850x (2021) Fully Modular ATX Power Supply - 80 PLUS Gold - Low-Noise Fan - Zero RPM - Black
• Cooler - ???
• Case - ???

I would need to:

1. Understand if there is compatibility among all the selected components.
2. Determine if there are any alternatives to the components I have chosen that are more performant at a similar price.
3. Figure out which case and cooler to choose (I'm not sure if I should go for an air or liquid cooler).

Out of the box, yes, they will all go along.

I would suggest something like this:

Case comes with front panel type C and ARGB fans.

Big fany air cooler with a temp readout.

Fast pcie 4.0 SSD

Tier A ATX 3.0 PSU

Go for 4070 only if you care about ray tracing.

Thanks for the feedback! Would you suggest an 7800xt or a 6950xt better?

 

[Lucky_SLS]

for long term usage, i would go with the current gen 7800XT. the 6950XT consumes more power while giving marginally more fps.

if the price of 6950XT is lower than 7800XT, then go for it.
