Hey everyone! I'm about to put together my first-ever gaming PC and could use some feedback on my build. Previously, I had some help from a friend, but this time it's all me with some guidance from online resources. I'm currently using a GTX 1050 and a Ryzen 5 setup.
For my new components, here's what I've got lined up:
- GPU: Radeon Hellhound 6900 XT
- CPU: Ryzen 9 9900X
- RAM: Vengeance 32GB DDR5 6000
- Motherboard: Strix B550-A
- PSU: 850W
Just wanted to make sure everything fits well together before I start assembling!

It seems a little unusual to pair that AMD GPU with the Ryzen 9 for a workstation setup. Typically, folks prefer NVIDIA for those tasks. But if you're gaming, Ryzen and that Radeon should work together fine as long as they're compatible. Just double-check your motherboard specs!

I agree! It's definitely not a common choice, but it can still work well for gaming. Just make sure your drivers are up to date once you assemble everything.
