I'm thinking about building my first gaming PC and want to know what you all think about this setup. My goal is to play some of the most demanding games like Space Marine 2 and Cyberpunk 2077. Here's a breakdown of the components I'm considering:
- Case: PCS SPECTRUM II ARGB MID TOWER CASE (PWM)

- Motherboard: ASUS PRIME B650-PLUS (AM5, DDR5, PCIe 4.0)
- RAM: 32GB Corsair VENGEANCE DDR5 5200MHz (2 x 16GB)
- GPU: 12GB GIGABYTE RADEON RX 7700 XT GAMING OC
- SSD: 1TB PCS PCIe M.2 SSD
- PSU: CORSAIR 750W CX SERIES
- CPU Cooler: PCS FrostFlow 100 ARGB V3
- Thermal Paste: ARCTIC MX-4
- LED Lighting: 50cm ARGB Strip
- Extra Case Fans: 2 x 120mm Thermaltake TOUGHFAN
- Onboard Sound Card and Network Card
- Wireless Network Card: Intel Wi-Fi 6E AX210
- Router: ASUS TUF AX3000 V2
- USB Options: Minimum of 4 ports
- OS: Windows 11 Home 64 Bit
I also have some extras like a monitor (27" IPS, 2560x1440, 180Hz) and a three-year warranty. What do you think?

Also, if you can, I’d suggest using a wired Ethernet connection instead of WiFi. It’s much faster and more stable, especially for gaming.
Another thing to think about is your browser choice. If you’re using Microsoft Edge, you might want to switch to something like Opera GX for better gaming performance and customization.
I was actually thinking about switching to Opera GX!
Looks like a solid build overall! Just a couple of pointers: the RAM you picked could be faster. I'd recommend at least 6000MHz CL30 to really optimize performance for those new games. Also, the Norton antivirus isn't necessary; stick with Windows Security, it's good enough and won't slow you down like some third-party options.
Totally agree, if you upgrade that RAM, your setup will be much more future-proof!
Thanks for the tip, that sounds like a good idea!
