Hi all! I'm from Portugal and I'm excited to build my first desktop computer. I'm aiming for a budget between 1300 and 1500 EUR. Here's what I have in mind for my build:
* **CPU:** AMD Ryzen 7 8700F
* **Cooler:** Corsair Nautilus 240 RS ARGB
* **Motherboard:** MSI B850M Gaming Plus WiFi6E
* **RAM:** Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5 6000MHz (32GB)
* **GPU:** MSI RTX 5060 Ti Ventus 2X 16GB
* **SSD:** Kingston NV3 1TB NVMe
* **Power Supply:** Mars Gaming MPB850PSI 850W Gold
* **Case:** Jonsbo D41 Mesh White
Do you think this setup is okay? Any suggestions or improvements? Thanks!

It looks good, but I'd check the prices. If the 8700F isn't really cheap, you might want to consider a different CPU. Just a thought!
Honestly, you don't really need an AIO cooler for your setup. With that budget, consider getting a 9070XT 16GB instead. If you're sticking with Nvidia, try to get at least a 5070. Also, the motherboard seems a bit overkill for your build.
Oh, and definitely steer clear of the Mars PSU; they're known to be unreliable. A 750W power supply should be more than enough. Look into getting an Asus Prime Gold or Be Quiet Pure Power 12 instead. You could refer to the PSU tier list to find a good one!
The price for the 8700F is around 252,90€—any suggestions for alternatives?
