Asked By GamerDude42 On

I'm building my first gaming PC and need some guidance! Here's the list of parts I have, excluding the monitor which I already own. I'm curious about what's the weakest link in this build. Are these components any good? Is there anything specific I should be aware of, especially since I'm aiming to play Valorant? Check out my parts list below for the details:

- CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 3.6 GHz 6-Core Processor
- CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 RGB Black Edition
- Motherboard: MSI B550M PRO-VDH WIFI Micro ATX
- Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200
- Storage: Seagate Barracuda Compute 2 TB 7200 RPM Hard Drive
- Video Card: MSI GeForce RTX 3060 12GB
- Case: Corsair 4000D Airflow
- Power Supply: Corsair RM850x 850 W Fully Modular

The total cost comes to around £774.33. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

I'd ditch the HDD since it's getting outdated. Go for a PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD, preferably one with DRAM for better speed. In terms of RAM, 3600MHz DDR4 would be optimal! If you can, look into getting a 5700X3D as well for improved performance. The rest of your parts seem fine!

Looks like you're overspending on the power supply and case for a build like this. You could save some cash by opting for a cheaper case and a 600W PSU. If you're gaming, a 9060XT might be a better fit too. Also, consider upgrading to a 5600X for a bit better performance!

Thank you so much! I might upgrade the other parts instead for a better setup 🙂
