Looking for Tips on a 1440p Gaming Build Under $1500
Asked by

I'm planning to upgrade from my pre-built setup with a 1660 Super to a new build that can handle 1440p gaming. I'm trying to keep the total cost below $1500. I'm particularly stuck on which case to choose—I'm considering the H9 Flow or the 3500X. Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated! Here's what I have so far: [my build list](https://pcpartpicker.com/list/PD8Zdb).

Have you thought about using the Ryzen 5 9600X? It's only around $20 more than your original choice and offers great performance.

You might want to consider the Radeon 9060XT 16GB. It’s a bit pricier, but it’s a newer model and performs better than its predecessors.
BudgetBuilder21: What about the difference between the overclocked and standard versions? The standard one is cheaper but currently out of stock.
