I'm putting together my first real gaming PC and I've got my parts list ready. I've spent around $2500 and I'm wondering whether this build is worth it. If you've got any suggestions or improvements to recommend, please let me know! Here's the link to my build: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/zHbVXR

I think your build is pretty solid overall, but you might want to consider this alternative: [PCPartPicker Part List](https://pcpartpicker.com/list/XKLb6Q). It features an AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D and a PNY OC GeForce RTX 5080, among other parts. Just keep in mind that it comes in around $2564, which is slightly above your budget!
Your build looks good, but you should definitely check the PSU tier list to ensure it's reliable. I recommend going for a higher quality power supply like the Seasonic GX 750W; it's A-tier and comes with a 10-year warranty, which is a huge plus!
Thanks for that! I didn’t know there was a PSU tier list. Turns out my Gamemax PSU is rated E, which isn't great.
