I'm new to the PC building scene and I'm considering purchasing a pre-built PC with the following specifications:
- **CPU**: AMD Ryzen 5 7600, running at 5.1GHz, Socket AM5
- **RAM**: Adata XPG Lancer Blade, 32GB (2x16GB), 6000MHz CL36
- **GPU**: Asus Dual Radeon RX 9060 XT, 16GB GDDR6
- **Power Supply**: Gamdias Helios E1-600 Pro 80 Plus, 600W ATX12V v2.4
- **Motherboard**: Asus Prime A620M-K, Socket AM5
- **Storage**: MSI SPATIUM M450, 1TB PCIe Gen4 x4 NVMe
The total cost is 899€ with a Black Friday discount, which fits nicely within my max budget of 1,000€. I'm not looking for the absolute best gaming rig, just something that'll handle games like Red Dead Redemption 2 smoothly. Based on these specs, do you think this setup is good enough, or could I potentially find or build something better?

The system looks decent, but the power supply is a bit of a concern. It's rated quite low on the PSU Tier List, which isn't great for reliability. I'd recommend looking for one that's at least C tier to ensure stability and longevity.
Overall, it's not a bad setup for casual gaming. Just be cautious about that power supply. Consider swapping it out for something more reliable if you can. You want to make sure everything runs smoothly, especially for demanding games!
I was thinking about using my Corsair RM750 750W instead of the Gamdias one. Is that a significant upgrade?
Thanks for the heads-up! My current PC has a Corsair RM750 750W 80 Plus Gold. Is that a better option?
