Hey everyone! I'm a longtime console gamer diving into the world of PC building. I've done a bit of research and put together a potential parts list for my first build, aiming for 1080p gaming with high frame rates and some music production using DAWs. My budget is around $1000, and I'd love to hear any advice or things I should keep in mind. Here's my parts list:
- **CPU:** AMD Ryzen 5 7600X 4.7 GHz 6-Core Processor
- **CPU Cooler:** Thermalright Assassin X 120 Refined SE
- **Motherboard:** ASRock B650M PG Lightning Wifi Micro ATX
- **Memory:** Patriot Viper Venom 32 GB DDR5-6000
- **Storage:** KingSpec XF 1 TB NVME SSD
- **Video Card:** Gigabyte WINDFORCE GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB
- **Case:** Cooler Master Elite 301 MicroATX Mid Tower
- **Power Supply:** Apevia Prestige 600 W 80+ Gold
Total Cost: $1057.83. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

Your build looks solid for 1080p gaming and music production! However, if you have a Microcenter nearby, consider swapping the Ryzen 5 7600X for the Ryzen 5 9600X—it’s a bit cheaper and slightly faster. Also, keep an eye out for the 5070 graphics cards; they're appearing at reasonable prices lately!
