I'm really excited since my mom just got me a new 27gs95qe-b monitor and gave me a budget of around 10,000 HKD to build a PC that can make the most of this OLED display. I want to know if the components I've picked out will let me play most games at 1440p on high settings while hitting 200+ FPS. Here's my current parts list:
- **CPU**: AMD Ryzen 7 9700X (8C 16T, AM5)
- **Thermal Paste**: Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut
- **CPU Cooler**: CORSAIR NAUTILUS 240
- **Motherboard**: ASUS B850M AYW Gaming (mATX, AM5)
- **GPU**: ASRock Radeon RX 9060 XT (16GB GDDR6)
- **PSU**: Thermalright 850W
- **RAM**: G.SKILL 32GB DDR5 5600MHz
- **Case**: NZXT H3 FLOW (Tempered Glass)
- **Fans**: CORSAIR NAUTILUS 240
- **SSD**: KLEVV 1TB PCIe Gen4 x4 (planning to get 2)
Are all these parts compatible, and do you have any suggestions for upgrades or adjustments?

What exactly are you planning to play? If it's mainly competitive FPS and strategy games, your build should handle those well at high settings. Just ensure your GPU is up to the task.
You might want to trim down some costs on your setup to allow for a more powerful GPU, like the 9070 XT or 5070 Ti. It'll make a huge difference in performance for high settings.
Good idea! Do you think I should cut down on the CPU or something else to save costs?
Reaching 200 FPS is going to depend a lot on the types of games you're playing. For competitive games like Apex Legends or Rainbow Six Siege, you might get close to that, especially if you’re not maxing out textures or settings. But for AAA titles, you might want to adjust your expectations since it's tough to hit 200 FPS in graphically demanding games like Cyberpunk or RDR2—expect around 50-70 FPS on high without ray tracing. Just keep that in mind!
Thanks, that's good to know! I'm ideally looking for those high FPS in shooters, but I do want at least 60 FPS on AAA games.
Mostly FPS like Rainbow Six and Apex, plus some strategy games like HOI4 and CK3. I'm hoping to keep things smooth!
