I've been thinking about building my own gaming PC and I want to know if my current setup sounds good for playing games at 1080-1440p with at least 100-120 fps. I'm planning on playing titles like Rainbow Six, Rust, and Cyberpunk (though I know Cyberpunk might be a stretch for 120 fps). Here's what I've got so far:
- CPU: Ryzen 5 9600X
- GPU: RTX 5060 Ti 16GB
- RAM: 32GB Corsair Vengeance DDR5
- SSD: Acer Predator 2TB M.2
- PSU: Corsair RM750X
- CPU Fan: Thermalright PS120SE
- Case Fans: 5 Arctic P12s
- Motherboard: MSI B850 Gaming Plus WiFi
(Note: I changed the motherboard because someone informed me I'd picked an Intel-based board previously.)

This build is solid for 1080p gaming and can handle some 1440p too! However, keep in mind that your current motherboard (MSI B850) is meant for Intel CPUs, so you can't use that Ryzen 5 9600X with it. I recommend checking out PCPartPicker for compatibility checks as you decide on components.
I was actually looking at the Intel i5-14600KF before and that's a great choice if you switch to an Intel board! It'll fit well in the overall build if you're going that route.
