I'm completely new to building PCs and I want to create my own for gaming. I have a budget of $1750 and I'm aiming to play most games at maximum settings with at least 60fps. What parts should I consider for the build?

Just a heads-up, a lot of users here discourage asking detailed part recommendations. I suggest checking out r/buildapcforme if you want tailored advice. Good luck!
That sub can be hit or miss, but there are definitely people willing to help. Just browse through!
Here's a great parts list I put together for your budget:
- **CPU:** AMD Ryzen 7 7700X - $277.99
- **CPU Cooler:** Thermalright Aqua Elite V3 - $54.90
- **Motherboard:** MSI B650 GAMING PLUS WIFI - $159.99
- **Memory:** Silicon Power 32 GB DDR5-6000 - $84.97
- **Storage:** Silicon Power 2 TB NVME SSD - $95.97
- **GPU:** MSI SHADOW 3X OC GeForce RTX 5070 Ti - $852.98
- **Case:** Montech XR Mid Tower - $80.90
- **Power Supply:** Montech CENTURY II 850W - $89.90
This total comes to $1697.60, so you’ll be under budget. This setup should handle max settings on most games while keeping you over 60fps!
If you're open to it, consider upgrading to the 7800X3D instead of the 7700X. It'll cost you about $100 more, but the performance boost is nice!
Solid build! Looks like you're set to game smoothly!
Yeah, those subreddit rules can be frustrating sometimes! But don't let it get you down.
