I think your build looks solid overall! I would recommend getting a 750W PSU and upgrading to 6000MHz RAM if you can. Also, consider swapping out the 5060 Ti for a 7800XT for better performance—though that will bump your budget by about $125 pretty significantly! You'll get about 10-30% more FPS with that upgrade.
What’s the primary use for this setup? Are you going for gaming, work, or maybe something else? It helps to know your focus when building a PC.
Primarily gaming, but I'll also be doing a lot of studying.
Your build is great, but I suggest upgrading your SSD to something like the Patriot Viper VP4300 Lite. It has amazing read/write speeds and comes with a heatsink. Just keep an eye on your airflow as well to prevent overheating, and look into your RAM's speed settings to see if they can be optimized in the BIOS.
Thanks for the tip! I'm thinking about the RAM upgrade since the Ryzen 5 7600x can handle up to 5200MHz. I'll see if my budget can stretch for the Viper SSD.
Your PSU looks well-sized for this build. No real need for a 750W unless you're planning some serious future upgrades. As for the SSD, the one you’ve got should be fast enough for most uses—unless you're doing heavy rendering or development work, you shouldn’t see bottlenecks!
That's a good point about the PSU. If you're not planning on upgrading to a higher-tier GPU in the future, 650W should be more than enough for now.
