Hey everyone! I'm completely new to building PCs and I could really use some guidance on selecting parts. I'm aiming to create a system that can run multiplayer games smoothly with friends and handle something like Red Dead Redemption 2 fairly well. My friends have suggested a setup with an RX 9060 XT (16GB version), Ryzen 5 9600, and 32GB DDR5 RAM. However, I'm open to any better suggestions you might have that would still keep the total cost under $1,000 USD. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

I found a nice build that just slightly exceeds your budget at around $1,050. You can check it out here: [link]. It's well-balanced and should meet your gaming needs pretty well. Let me know if you have questions about the components!
It sounds like you're on the right track! For your build, I recommend going with the RX 9060 XT 16GB, Ryzen 5 9600X, and 32GB of DDR5 RAM. Just make sure to pick RAM with a latency of 10 ns or lower. A motherboard, like the B650 or B850, would be solid too. Don't forget a good air cooler, 1 or 2 TB NVMe SSD, and a quality 750-850W PSU to keep everything running smoothly. Also, a nice case can really tie things together!
Any idea how much all that would cost?
Check out this specific build link. It'll give you a clear pricing overview!
Thanks for the link! Do they assemble it for you?
