Hey everyone! I'm a newbie trying to build my first PC, and I'd really appreciate some feedback on the parts I've selected. I ran my build through ChatGPT, and it gave me a thumbs up, but I'd love some human insight before I proceed. Here's the link to my build: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/g2bmBq. My budget is around $1800, so if you have any suggestions to improve it, I'm all ears!

I found a different video card that might give you a bit more performance without breaking the bank. Check out this build: [PCPartPicker List](https://pcpartpicker.com/list/hcc2Yd). It features a better GPU while staying within budget, and I also switched up some parts to optimize your performance. It's a bit over your budget at $1736, but the slight bump in price can be worth it!
While ChatGPT is improving, it’s not perfect. For your budget, you should easily get a solid 1440p gaming experience, including a monitor. I recommend checking out the 5060 Ti 16GB GPU, which is currently a great value. Here’s a sample build that might work well for you: [PCPartPicker List](https://pcpartpicker.com/list/csJYh7). It totals around $1598 and includes some great parts!
Thanks! I found good reviews for the 5060 Ti, and I checked with a bottleneck calculator. Seems like everything will work great, plus you suggested some better components that fit my budget. Iwas really worrying about choosing the right video card because of conflicting reviews.
Quick question—will this setup run Minecraft with shaders or Roblox at good FPS? That's mostly what I play!
I ran my specs through a bottleneck calculator, and it says the CPU might be too weak for that GPU. Any thoughts on that?
