Question What do you think about this build?

[not you]

Hello everyone

I would like to get a desktop as my rtx 3050 laptop doesnt cut it any more
i found this for a pretty good price near me:

RTX 3090 gaming x
Intel Core i7-12700
MSI MAG Coreliquid 240R V2
GIGABYTE B660M GAMING X DDR4 Alaplap
Kingston HyperX FURY 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 3466MHz HX434C19FWK2/32
Samsung 980 PRO NVMe 2TB M.2 PCIe (MZ-V8P2T0BW)
Lian Li O11 Dynamic XL ROG Certified
SilverStone Strider Platinum 1000W (SST-ST1000-PT)

i mostly like the rtx 3090 the rest imo is a bit strange but at least its not that expensive
what do you think?

Does it cost 700 dollars or 5700 dollars?

Is it new?

What other choices do you have within your budget?

Not sure if MSI liquid coolers are appreciated here.

about the equivalent of 1500$
not new except the mobo

anything for about 1500$ is fair game
but this is as good as i found near me used

the ssd is under 100gb usage and i can test personally before buying

the case, PSU and GPU are great options. Can be upgraded with new components if required.

If you are happy with the performance of a locked 12700, i would say go for it!

right? i find it strange to spend so much on the case and go cheap on the motherboard

i was happy with the r7 5800h so definately

its a dd4r board thou so i dont think it can take 13th gen but thats fine imo

The motherboard supports a 13th gen intel CPU. Both 12th and 13th gen support DDR4 and DDR5 motherboards. Are you in the UK, EU, or elsewhere? A UK sourced equivalent would be this, I'd say that PC is a great deal;

Its still a great PSU either way.
