I've just built my first PC, but I'm not very knowledgeable when it comes to computer hardware. Can anyone give me feedback on whether I got a good deal with my build or if there's anything that needs changing? I'm looking to use it for both gaming and schoolwork. Here's my configuration:
- Windows 11 Home 64bit (installed with license)
- NZXT H7 FLOW (2024) RGB case
- AMD Ryzen 7 7700 (8 cores at 3.8GHz, up to 5.3GHz Turbo)
- Polartherm X10 thermal paste
- be quiet! Dark Rock 5 CPU cooler
- MSI PRO B850-S WIFI6E motherboard
- 32GB (2x16GB) DDR5 RAM at 6000MHz (Kingston Fury Beast CL30)
- 2TB PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe SSD (brand unspecified)
- 12GB NVIDIA RTX 5070 graphics card (brand unspecified)
- 750W MSI MAG A750GL 80+ Gold power supply
- 2 additional ARGB strips
- No optical drive
- 2 years warranty

Since you're in Germany with a budget around 2k, you should be good! Just make sure to check if all the parts are compatible, and you'll have a great PC for gaming and school.
What country are you in, and what's your budget? There are tools like PCPartPicker where you can compare prices if you're in the EU.
Your parts look solid for both gaming and school! You might want to consider a smaller CPU cooler to cut down on costs and possibly switch to DDR5 6000CL36 if it’s cheaper. If you share your build link, I could help you find a better deal.
