Hey everyone! So I just made the jump from console gaming on Xbox and a weak laptop to building my first PC. I'm a bit new to all of this, so I put together a build and would love your thoughts on it. Here are my parts:
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5950X
- Cooler: DeepCool AK400 Zero Dark Plus
- Motherboard: GIGABYTE B550M Aorus Elite
- RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws V 32GB
- GPU: MSI GeForce RTX 3060 VENTUS 2X OC 12GB GDDR6 192bit with DLSS
- Power Supply: MSI MAG A650BN 650W 80+ Bronze
- SSD: 1TB Kingston NV3
I tried to keep costs reasonable, but I'm open to suggestions on changes! Also, please excuse any messiness in my post - I'm still figuring out how Reddit works. Thanks for any input!

What's your overall budget for this build? And what about your monitor - any specs in mind? A good resolution and refresh rate can make a huge difference! Also, I'm guessing you're in Poland from your budget in złoty?
Honestly, I think the RTX 3060 might not be the best choice with your other components. Maybe consider upgrading to a 40 series GPU if it fits in your budget. You might have to sacrifice something else, but it'll be worth it for gaming.
Yeah, I'm in Poland, my budget is around 5000zł (about $1387). I haven't picked a monitor yet, but I'm leaning towards a 120 Hz display!
