I'm putting together a PC and need advice on the ideal power supply for my components. Here's what I have:
- **Case**: Lian Li O11D XL-A ATX
- **Motherboard**: Asus B850-F ROG Strix AM5 DDR5
- **CPU**: Ryzen 7 7800X3D
- **GPU**: GIGABYTE RX 7800 XT
- **RAM**: Corsair Vengeance DDR5 6000 CL36 32GB
- **AIO Cooler**: Lian Li HydroShift LCD 360TL
- **SSD**: Samsung 980 Pro 2TB
If you have suggestions for a power supply and any thoughts on my specs, I'd love to hear them!

Your graphics card is the centerpiece of gaming performance, so it's crucial. Your build looks solid for the most part, but just be aware that some of your components—like the RAM—are a bit below average quality for the price range. If you're not aiming for super high frame rates at 1080P with a killer monitor, the RX 7800 XT might not be optimal. Just a thought!
I recommend getting a power supply rated at least 750W, preferably an ATX 3 model with good reviews. You want something reliable since it's a critical component. If you're in the US, check out Montech; they have an A-tier 850W unit for around $90 that's a great deal! Also, consider switching to CL30 RAM for better performance unless you're getting a package deal or something special.
Thanks for the tip! I just switched to CL30.
What would you suggest instead for the AIO cooler?
