I'm considering my first PC build and found this setup: Intel Core i7-10700KF CPU with 8 cores and 16 threads (boosts up to 5.1 GHz), an ASUS GeForce RTX 3070 TUF OC for graphics, 32 GB of HyperX Fury DDR4 RAM, a 2 TB Kingston A2000 NVMe SSD, an ASUS ROG Strix Z490-F Gaming motherboard, and a 750W Corsair TX750M power supply with 80+ Gold certification. What do you all think? Is this a solid first PC?

Most first PCs aren’t anywhere near this level! My first one was a decade-old CPU, so you’re doing great! Just check the price and make sure it's worth it.
It really depends on what you plan to do with it. If you're gaming or doing content creation, this is a great choice. But if you just need something for everyday tasks, you might not need this much power. Just weigh your needs against what you're paying for it!
Price matters a lot too. If you're getting this for $850, that's a good deal considering the specs. Compare it with new builds to see if it holds up!
Looks like a fantastic setup for a first PC! If it's second-hand, that's even more impressive. A lot of first builds tend to be much less powerful than this, so you're definitely starting off strong! Just make sure everything is in good condition before you buy it.
