Hey everyone! I just ordered the parts for my new PC build after waiting 10 years, and I'm super excited! I plan to use it for general stuff like browsing the internet, watching movies, and gaming at 1440p with high to ultra settings. I've done my research and checked all the parts, but I'd love to get some input from you all. Here's what I've got:
- **Case:** Lian Li Lancool 207
- **Motherboard:** ASUS TUF GAMING B550-PLUS
- **PSU:** Seasonic Focus GX-850W
- **RAM:** G.SKILL 32GB Trident Z Neo DDR4 3600MHz CL16 KIT
- **CPU:** AMD Ryzen 7 5700X3D
- **Cooler:** THERMALRIGHT Phantom Spirit 120
- **Graphics Card:** Powercolor 7800 XT 16GB Red Devil
- **SSD:** SAMSUNG 990 EVO Plus 1TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2
Could you let me know if this setup is good enough for what I want to do? Thanks!

Your build looks solid for 1440p gaming and everyday tasks! You might struggle with high/ultra settings on some recent AAA titles, particularly open-world ones, but overall, you should see a significant performance boost from your previous setup. After 10 years, this will definitely feel like a huge upgrade!
Thanks for the reassurance! I've checked similar builds, and it seems like many games can run well at high-ultra even without upscaling. I saw some benchmarks using my GPU with a 5800X3D that showed a slight difference in fps. But honestly, I'm okay with medium settings for the more demanding titles if needed!
