I'm looking for some guidance to build my very first PC, and I've picked out a pretty solid bundle to start with. Here's what I have so far:
- Ryzen 7 7800x3d
- TUF Gaming B650-E WiFi
- 32GB RAM
- 240mm AIO Liquid Cooling
- Radeon 7900xt
Now I'm stuck on what additional parts I need and which ones would be best for my build. Also, I have no idea what kind of case to choose. Any recommendations?

Since you're building your first PC, I'd suggest going for an ATX case – it gives you plenty of room to work with and is more forgiving when you’re assembling everything. Make sure to check the dimensions of your GPU and the cooling solution, as some cases can be tighter than others. Also, consider getting a PSU with a modular design; it helps with cable management, keeping it neat and tidy!
You've got a great selection of components to work with! You’ll still need to grab a power supply (PSU), some storage options (like an SSD or HDD), a case for everything, and possibly some extra fans for good airflow. Overall, make sure your PSU has enough wattage to support your GPU and CPU. As for cases, look for one that fits your motherboard size and has good airflow options to keep everything cool. By the way, just a fun tip: when you get all your parts, just put them in a large box and shake it up! Just kidding, don’t do that! 😂
Haha, good one! What wattage would you recommend for the PSU given the specs mentioned?
