I'm halfway through building my gaming PC and have some parts gifted to me. I currently own a 4070 GPU, a 1000W power supply, 32GB of DDR5 RAM at 6000MHz, and a 1TB SSD. I already have peripherals like a monitor and keyboard. With a budget of $600, I'm seeking recommendations on the best components to complete my build. Any suggestions on cases or cooling solutions that would enhance its appearance would also be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I'd suggest spending around $400 on a decent B650 motherboard and a Ryzen 7 7700X processor. Personally, I've had great experiences with MSI motherboards. With the remaining $200, you should be able to find a solid case and a cooling solution that looks cool too!

I was considering the 9600X—what makes the 7700X your choice?
