Help Choosing Parts for My First Gaming PC

Asked By TechieMonkey77 On

I'm building my first PC using PCPartPicker and I'm a bit lost on whether the components I chose are suitable for my gaming needs. I mainly enjoy high-definition story-based games like Cyberpunk 2077, and the reason I need a new setup is that my old shared family computer broke down. If anyone could take a look at my build and give some advice, I would really appreciate it! Also, keep in mind I'm in the Netherlands, so some parts might not be available or might cost a bit more due to tariffs. By the way, I made every visible part white just for fun, so don't mind the pricing!

Ideally, go for 6000MHz CL30 RAM for better performance. As for the graphics card, the 7800 xt is becoming hard to find since they’re not in production. You might have better luck with the 5070 or 9070. Check out this GPU hierarchy for more info: [GPU Hierarchy](https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gpu-hierarchy,4388.html).

Wow, I had no idea the 7800 xt was out of production. What are the 5070 and 9070 options you mentioned, and would I need to swap my CPU for them?

Looks like a solid build! I’d suggest checking out this combo with a 7800x3d and 9070 xt all in white, just in case you wanna keep that aesthetic. Here's a link to it if you're interested: [Combo Deal](https://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails?ItemList=Combo.4777719). Just remember that living in Europe might affect some of the deals available to you, especially with shipping costs.

Thanks for the advice! I didn't realize some of these combos might not be available here due to location.

You might want to consider upgrading to at least a 900W PSU. It’ll give you some headroom for future upgrades, especially if you plan to play demanding games.

Good point! I’ll look into getting a higher watt PSU.
