I'm looking to buy a gaming PC next month mainly to play Fortnite with my friends, along with some other games like Monster Hunter World and Ark: Survival Evolved. I've been advised not to trust online FPS calculators, and I'm unsure about my current build. Here's what I've got in mind so far:
- CPU: Ryzen 7 5700X
- GPU: MSI RX 6700 XT MECH 2X OC 12GB GDDR6
- Motherboard: MSI A520M-A PRO (4 slots)
- RAM: 4x8 GB DDR4 XPG
I'm pretty clueless when it comes to PCs, so I'd appreciate any insights or advice on this setup!

It's hard to give you an exact answer without knowing your budget. If you could provide that, it'd help a lot! If you can, I recommend looking for a newer AMD processor, like a 7th Gen, that uses the AM5 socket. This will give you room for future upgrades. You should also consider the GPU since AMD has recently stated they won't support the 6000 series anymore. You might want to check out newer options like the Radeon 9060 or B580 if your budget allows. Also, don't forget about a good power supply! Your current build might handle Fortnite and Ark, but you could potentially get a better setup for the same amount. Also, what resolution is your monitor? That'll factor in too!
My budget is around 700-750€, and I'm looking at buying a prebuilt since I'm not experienced with building PCs and there's no one nearby to help. I’ll likely be using a 2k screen resolution.
