I'm currently working with an Asrock Radeon RX 9060 XT, 16 GB of DDR5 Corsair 6000MHz CL36 RAM (one stick), and a 1TB Kingston Gen 4 PCIe 4 SSD. I'm planning to upgrade to a Ryzen 5 7500F along with a Gigabyte B650 GAMING X AX V2 Wi-Fi motherboard. I'll also be using a Dark Maxima V30 case, which I believe is compatible with everything I've selected. For cooling, I plan to get a Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE since I'll be focusing on productivity tasks like 3D CAD/CAM, coding, and local AI training, plus I want to dabble in basic video editing. For the power supply, I'm considering the NZXT C850 Gold 850W. I know it might be more than I need now, but I want to ensure I won't need to replace it during future upgrades. Just wanted to get some feedback on my plan!

Your build looks solid! As long as it fits your budget, you’re on the right track. I’d suggest checking PCPartPicker to ensure compatibility and maybe find better deals in your area. Just a heads up, if you’re into 3D CAD/CAM and running AI, NVIDIA GPUs usually have specific drivers that can help a lot with performance. Good luck!
I actually ran everything through PCPartPicker, and there were no compatibility issues. As for NVIDIA, it's tough over here price-wise! The equivalent GPU is way more expensive, so I think the RX 9060 XT is the best deal for me right now. Plus, it looks incredible! Can’t wait to build it.
