I'm transitioning from console gaming, specifically the Switch, and I'm looking for some feedback on my first PC build. Here's a link to it: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/hTX8sp. I'm not an expert on all the components, but I need it to run smoothly at 1080p. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I wouldn't recommend this build as it stands. Your power supply isn't great. By the way, where are you located and what budget are you working with?
I switched from console to PC back in 2000, and you're already avoiding my mistakes! That's a solid motherboard to build on. The CPU might not be the best fit for performance, but it's budget-friendly. Definitely go for the RTX 2080 if you can afford it. Also, I suggest checking out Ripjaws for RAM; it could help with future upgrades.
It's a decent build, but the RX 6600 is starting to show its age. You might want to consider a used RTX 2080; it's significantly faster and should be around the same price on eBay—just saw one for $217.
Those RAM options do look better for my build—thanks for the tip!
