I'm working on building a gaming PC and I'm wondering if my current setup will be powerful enough to run CS2 and Valorant smoothly. Here are the specs I've chosen:
- **CPU**: AMD Ryzen 5 7600 3.8 GHz 6-Core AM5
- **Motherboard**: Asus B650 TUF GAMING PLUS WIFI DDR5 ATX
- **GPU**: ASRock Radeon RX 9070 XT Taichi OC 16GB GDDR6 Black
- **RAM**: Kingston FURY Beast Black DDR5-6000 CL40 16GB (2x8GB)
- **CPU Cooler**: be quiet! Pure Rock 2 Air 155mm Silver/Black
- **Storage**: PNY CS2230 1TB SSD M.2-2280 PCIe 3.0 X4 NVMe
- **Power Supply**: Corsair RM750x SHIFT Black Side Interface 750W Fully Modular 80+ Gold Certified
- **Case Fan**: Phanteks M25G2-120 120mm Black PWM 72.72 CFM 3-Pack
- **Monitor**: Asus TUF Gaming 27" 1440p 260Hz IPS Monitor
- **Thermal Compound**: Arctic MX-4 (2019) 4g Thermal Paste
- **Operating System**: Microsoft Windows 11 Pro | USB
Total Price: $3,200. Would this be enough for gaming?

While 16GB of RAM should work fine for CS2 and Valorant, I recommend bumping it up to 32GB if you're spending this much on the build. RAM is pretty affordable now, so it makes sense to future-proof your PC as much as possible!
Not sure what RAM to get, any suggestions?
I'm amazed this rig totals $3,200. Are you sure? Seems a bit high for these specs!
I checked, it's in AUD.
What country are you in? I don't think you'll need a super high-end machine for those games, but it really depends on your budget.
If those two games run well, I might consider adding more games to my library.
I'm in Australia, and my budget is around 3k-3.5k.
Okay, I’ll go for 32GB then!
