Hey everyone! I'm in the process of building my own PC and I've put together a list of components. I'd really appreciate any advice on whether I can make this build cheaper or if it's a good time to purchase these parts. Here's what I've got so far:
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X - $132.00
- CPU Cooler: Thermaltake UX200 SE ARGB - $35.00
- Motherboard: MSI B550M PRO-VDH WIFI - $159.00
- Memory: TEAMGROUP T-Force Delta RGB 16 GB - $74.00
- Storage: Crucial P3 Plus 1 TB NVME SSD - $92.00
- Video Card: XFX Speedster QICK 319 Radeon RX 6750 XT - $559.00
- Case: Montech XR ATX Mid Tower - $78.00
- Power Supply: Thermaltake 550W Semi-modular - $85.00
- Case Fan: Thermalright 3-Pack - $32.00
- Monitor: MSI G255F 24.5" 180 Hz - $147.77
The total comes to about $1393.77 AUD. Thanks for your help!

It looks like you could save a lot by switching the graphics card! That $560 for the 6750 XT seems pretty steep. Have you checked for alternatives that might offer similar performance for less?

I thought it was a reasonable price (considering AUD). It's just hard to find alternatives in Australia right now. Any specific GPUs you'd recommend?
