I'm considering my first PC build and want to know if this setup is good for the price. Here's what I have planned:
- GPU: PowerColor Radeon RX 7700 XT 12GB GDDR6
- Motherboard: ASRock B850M-X WiFi R2.0
- Power Supply: Gigabyte P650G PCIE 5.1 650W
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7500F, 3.7 GHz, 32 MB
- RAM: ADATA XPG Lancer Blade, DDR5, 32 GB, 6000MHz
- Case: Night Hunter
- SSD: GoodRam PX700 1TB M.2 PCI-E x4 Gen4 NVMe
- CPU Cooler: Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE
The total cost comes to about 1300 euros. What do you think? Am I on the right track or should I consider different components?

You might want to rethink some of your choices. I suggest looking into a Ryzen 5 9600X and an ASUS Dual Radeon RX 9060 XT for just a bit more, about 75 euros over your current selections. Also, I've heard some mixed reviews about the ASRock motherboard, so I swapped mine for a Gigabyte B650M Gaming WIFI 6E which worked great for me. Another tip is to consider a Samsung 990 Evo Plus SSD; it's very reliable. Just make sure your case has enough room for a beefy cooler if you go with something like the Arctic Freezer!
Thanks for the tips! I just hope my budget can stretch for the CPU upgrade.
