Hey everyone! I recently built my PC but returned my CPU, motherboard, and RAM. Now I've got a budget of $750 to work with and I really prefer AMD components. Here's what I already have: a Krux Leda case, a Lexar 1TB M.2 PCIe NVMe NM620 for storage, a Be Quiet! Pure Rock 2 FX Black 120mm cooler, an RTX 3070 Gigabyte GPU, and an Endorfy Vero L5 Bronze 700W power supply. What would you suggest for the CPU, motherboard, and RAM within my budget?

I would second the suggestion for the Ryzen 5 5600X. Just make sure your motherboard has the features you need, like enough USB ports and Wi-Fi if you want it. For RAM, go with low latency to maximize performance. You might find some good deals on combo discounts too!
First off, nice build! For your CPU, I’d recommend the AMD Ryzen 5 5600X. It’s powerful and great for gaming. Pair that with a B550 motherboard for good performance and future upgrades. For RAM, consider getting 16GB (2x8GB) of DDR4 3200MHz. You should be able to fit all of that within your budget with some shopping around. Happy building!
I agree, the 5600X is a solid choice. If you want to save some cash, you could also look at the Ryzen 5 3600; it’s still a great performer for gaming.
Thanks for the advice! I’ll check out those combo deals to save some money.
