I'm building my first gaming PC, and I have a 32-inch 4K OLED monitor. I'm looking for advice on whether my setup can handle 4K gaming and if I need to make any changes. Here's my budget and specs:
- **Budget**: £1,500
- **Specs**:
- **Case**: Lian Li O11 Vision Compact
- **Motherboard**: MSI B650 Plus
- **GPU**: XFX Speedster RX 7900 XTX
- **CPU**: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D
- **RAM**: 2 x 16GB Crucial Pro
- **PSU**: MSI MAG 850W
- **AIO Cooler**: Thermalright Aqua Elite V3
- **SSD**: MSI Spatium 2TB
- **Fans**: Thermalright TL-M12Q X3
I'd appreciate any insights from experienced builders!

Yes, the RX 7900 XTX is definitely capable of running 4K games! I used one daily for over a year, and it performed really well. You should be good to go with that GPU!
If you're looking to save some cash, consider swapping for a cheaper CPU like the Ryzen 5 9600X and getting a better GPU like the RX 7900 XT instead. The motherboard and RAM are solid, but I'd suggest upgrading the PSU since the MSI MAG can be a bit noisy. An AIO cooler is nice but not necessary unless you really want it for the 9600X.
What PSU would you recommend and is 850W enough?
