I've put together my first PC build, and I'm looking for feedback! I want to know if everything I've chosen is compatible and if there are any better or cheaper alternatives available. I won't be waiting for prices to drop, and I already have a Corsair 4000D Airflow case. Here's what I've chosen:
* **CPU:** AMD Ryzen 5 7600X3D
* **CPU Cooler:** Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE
* **Motherboard:** MSI B850 Gaming Plus WiFi (ATX, AM5)
* **RAM:** Patriot Viper Venom 32 GB (2x16 GB) DDR5-6000 CL30
* **SSD:** Samsung 990 EVO Plus 2 TB M.2 NVMe
* **GPU:** Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB WINDFORCE OC (PCIe x8)
* **PSU:** Seasonic CORE GX ATX 3 (2024) 750 W 80+ Gold

Solid choice on the MSI B850 Gaming Plus! Just make sure it’s not the WiFi 6E model, as that's a downgrade. It's easy to mistake one for the other, but the regular WiFi version is a winner!
Everything here looks solid to me! Enjoy your new build! By the way, I have the same CPU cooler, and it works like a champ.
You might want to consider an Intel Ultra 7 265K. It’s cheaper, faster, and has more cores and larger caches compared to the 7600X3D. Pair it with a B860 board, and you can get DDR5 at 6400.
The 5060 Ti is a budget-friendly option, but keep in mind it might hold you back a bit due to its power draw. Just something to think about!
