I found a gaming build online that includes a 5070 Ti GPU. I'm looking for something capable of high-end gaming and maybe some Cinema 4D rendering in the future. The build needs to be compatible with my Apple Studio Display, as I only have room for one monitor and use it with my MacBook. I'm fine with 60Hz. Here's the link to the build I found: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/ZJbGYd. What do you think? Is it a solid choice?

Overall, this build looks promising! However, I’d suggest swapping the power supply to a reputable brand like the Seasonic FOCUS GX 750W or 850W. Many Montech CENTURY II power supplies have a reputation for failing early, which could cause issues down the road. Also, I’d keep an eye out for a more affordable GPU if the listed price is accurate; you should be able to snag a GamingPro OC or a Gainward Phantom for less!
Thanks for the tip! I’ll definitely check out those alternatives.
The build looks alright, but I’d recommend taking a closer look at the CPU and cooler as well, just to ensure they fit your needs for rendering. The case you've chosen is nice for airflow, which is essential for gaming. If you want to keep the build cooler during those long sessions, adding some good case fans could really help!
Nice suggestions! I’d add that it’s also good to consider SSD space for quick load times, especially for large games.
Great points! I appreciate the advice.
I hadn’t heard that about the Montech PSU! Where did you find that info?
