Need Feedback on My First PC Build for Gaming and Animation
Asked by
TechieTurtle82
Hey everyone! I just wrapped up my first real PC part list and I'm looking for some feedback on whether it's good or not. My budget is 1000 CHF for gaming at 1440p, and I live in Switzerland, so some parts might not be available here. I specifically don't want a whole new parts list; I just want to know if everything I've chosen will work well together. I'm planning to do both 2D and 3D animation as well as play graphic-heavy games like Doom TDA, Trailmakers, and GTA 5. Here's my build: [PCPartPicker Link](https://de.pcpartpicker.com/list/cRNbgn)

Yeah, that PSU is definitely on the lower end of the scale. You should look for something more reliable. As for your GPU, the 7600 XT isn't the best choice for the price; the 9060 XT 16GB is a better deal. Here's a good list of parts you might want to check: [Digitec PC List](https://www.digitec.ch/en/shoplist/show/CfDJ8KEwk7Q9MilFpMKq1D7DsMarqrRQf4mh3Xz0ISmr1T_RPFLwYjavtjpDqBx0MU1uHOBB_CBOLsFyOIewraXYVc3efpKLYbyHE7WaC_TSth--KCWBZyvADXmRxfQpiho1kA)

The list looks pretty solid, but you might want to reconsider that power supply. The Deepcool PF series isn't great. I recommend looking into the 9060 XT 16GB; it's only about 50 euros more and should perform better with FSR4.
TechieTurtle82: I did get the 9060 XT, but what power supply should I grab instead?

What games are you looking to play? That can really impact whether your build is optimal.
TechieTurtle82: I want to play Doom TDA, Minecraft, Trailmakers, Ultrakill, GTA 5, and also do some creative work like 2D and 3D animation, plus some recording and editing.
