Hey everyone! I'm building my first PC and I've spent quite a bit of time researching different components. Here's what I've decided on so far:
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X
- Motherboard: MSI MAG B550 TOMAHAWK MAX WIFI
- GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 (8GB GDDR6)
- RAM: Reusing 16GB DDR4 from my old setup
I'm still figuring out which power supply to get, but I wanted to get some feedback on these parts before prices go up too much. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

The RTX 2070 is getting a bit older, but it still performs decently in most games. Just keep an eye on the 8GB of VRAM; it might limit you in some newer titles. If you can snag a used 3070 Ti or 3080, those would be better options if your budget allows. Overall, it seems like a solid build for now!
Are you aiming for a budget build with used parts? If the price is right, this setup can definitely work! You should compare the price of used RTX 2070s with a used 3060 (12GB), as you might find better performance for not much more money.
