Asked By TechyTurtle92 On

Hey everyone! I'm building my first PC and I'm looking for some advice. My main goals are studying and gaming, so I want to ensure I have a good setup. Here's what I've chosen so far:

- **Case**: INFINIARC CUBE 2.0 FLOW XL with 6 RGB fans for great airflow.
- **Motherboard**: Gigabyte B760M GAMING WIFI PLUS (MicroATX), supports DDR5 and has built-in Wi-Fi 6.
- **CPU**: Intel Core i7-14700F with 20 cores for gaming and multitasking.
- **CPU Cooler**: DeepCool AG400 DIGITAL ARGB for performance and aesthetics.
- **GPU**: Gigabyte RTX 5060 Ti WINDFORCE OC 16GB for high refresh rate 1440p gaming.
- **RAM**: CORSAIR Vengeance 32GB DDR5 6000MHz.
- **Storage**: Kingston 1TB NV2 NVMe SSD for fast load times.
- **Power Supply**: CORSAIR RM750e 750W 80+ Gold Fully Modular.
- **Monitor**: ASUS TUF VG27AQ3A 27" QHD Fast IPS Monitor at 180Hz.

Total cost is around 7232 SAR (~$1930). Any thoughts on components or suggestions for improvements?

I’d recommend waiting for better GPU options if possible. The inflated prices on the 5000 series are crazy, and you could find something more suited for your needs if you hold off for a bit.

Honestly, for around $2k, this build feels a bit lacking in storage and the GPU isn't the strongest option out there. It seems like you're also getting an mATX motherboard in a larger ATX case, which is a bit of a red flag. I’d suggest looking into other GPUs that might give you better value for your money!

Yeah, I agree! The GPU prices are insane, I saw the same 5060 Ti for $900 on Amazon! You're really paying a premium right now.
