Hey everyone! I'm looking to build a new PC and could use some advice on the parts I've chosen so far. Here's what I have in mind:
- **CPU**: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D 4.2 GHz 8-Core Processor ($365.00)
- **CPU Cooler**: Cooler Master Hyper 212 Black Edition ($25.99)
- **Motherboard**: Asus B650E MAX GAMING WIFI ATX AM5 Motherboard ($149.99)
- **Memory**: Corsair Vengeance RGB 32 GB DDR5-6000 CL36 ($369.99)
- **Storage**: Samsung 990 Pro 2 TB NVME SSD ($391.77)
- **Video Card**: Gigabyte GAMING OC Radeon RX 9070 XT 16 GB ($729.99)
- **Case**: Lian Li O11 VISION COMPACT ATX Mid Tower Case ($124.99)
- **Power Supply**: MSI MAG A750GL 750 W 80+ Gold Certified ($95.99)
This brings the total to $2,253.71, including shipping and taxes. I used to be into PC building, but I've fallen behind. Currently, I'm using a 5600x and a 6700xt with a 1440p monitor.
I need something that can handle running 30-40 Chrome tabs and work well with Squarespace since my current setup sometimes lags. Also, I'm looking forward to playing GTA 6 in the near future! I just need a reliable build for the next 1.5 to 2 years, so I don't necessarily need to future-proof it too much.

I think your original parts are solid, but keep in mind that the graphics card will be a big factor for gaming performance in GTA 6. Also, make sure the PSU has enough wattage for everything. If you're just aiming for a couple of years, don’t stress too much about future-proofing; just get something that runs all your tasks smoothly.
I made some changes to your build that should suit your needs perfectly and likely last you 4-5 years even at 1440p ultra settings. Check out this updated list: [https://pcpartpicker.com/list/cK7d6B](https://pcpartpicker.com/list/cK7d6B). If you ever want to upgrade later, you can just swap in a new CPU like the 9800X3D or 9850X3D in a few years. Happy building!
Good point! The RX 9070 XT should handle that, but keep an eye on power requirements. Future upgrades shouldn't be a hassle if you pick good components now.
