Hey fellow gamers! I'm diving into the PC gaming world and I'm on the hunt for a build that can deliver a solid 240fps at 1080p across most games, even those that tend to be poorly optimized. I want to experience no lag, no fps drops, and just smooth, high-quality graphics—ideally on ultra settings. I'm aware that hitting 240fps on every single game might be a stretch, but I'm aiming for as many as possible. A key requirement is a 4TB Samsung 990 PRO SSD, and my budget is around $2,300. If the build needs to go over budget to achieve my goals, I'm open to that too! Any help with a PCPartPicker build that meets these criteria would really mean a lot to me!

For your build, you might want to consider this setup:
- **CPU**: 9800X3D
- **GPU**: NVIDIAs 5070ti or AMD's 9070XT
- **Motherboard**: Look for any B650 or B850 board that catches your eye
- **RAM**: A 32GB 6000MHz CL30 kit should do the trick
- **PSU**: An 850W power supply from Corsair or Coolermaster
- **CPU Cooler**: Thermalright PS120 EVO can keep things cool
Just pick a case you like—ideally a mesh front for airflow—and you should be set for 1080p 240Hz gaming for quite some time!
Should I add a heatsink for my Samsung 990? I tend to game for long hours.
