I'm a total beginner looking for your opinions on my new PC build. Here's what I have so far:
- **PSU**: MSI MAG A750GL 80 PLUS GOLD
- **Case**: NXZT H9 FLOW RGB
- **Cooler**: TRYX panorama se 360 AMOLED display
- **GPU**: Power colour Radeon RX 9060 XT HellHound
- **RAM**: Corsair Vengeance 32GB (2 x 16GB)
- **Motherboard**: Gigabyte B850 wifi7
- **SSD**: Crucial P510 1TB
- **CPU**: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D
The total cost is around £2000, including the strimmer. I used PCBuilder to ensure all the parts are compatible. I'm curious if this is a good build for the price and if there are cheaper alternatives available. Just to clarify, I don't game myself; I'm building this for my two boys who love Fortnite, and I'd like to play some casual games too. Ideally, I want something stable and good for the long haul, around 5-6 years before needing upgrades.

It's always good to double-check your budget! If you can afford it, consider upgrading to a Radeon 9070 XT for a bit more power. You could save money by opting for a cheaper cooler – either a Thermalright AIO or an air cooler might do the trick. Also, if the case isn’t a must-have, you could look at the Lancool 207 for a change. You mentioned the SSD being 1TB – that should hold you over for a few years, but consider checking prices on alternatives like the Teamgroup MP33 or MP34 to save some cash.
Definitely! Keep aiming for that balance, and you're all set!
Honestly, this build looks great for under £2000! The case is kind of big though and might not be ideal. I've put together a different list that allocates your budget even better while keeping performance high.

**Your total** would be around £1893.46, and you can get better specs without overspending!
That’s awesome! Your new build looks solid!
Thanks a ton for this! Love the specs you suggested. Do you think the NXZT Kraken 360 cooler would still be a good fit for these parts?
My budget is £2000 max. I’d love to bring that down to around £1500-£1800 if I can. The see-through design of the case is a huge plus for me! I also looked at the 9070 XT, but the price is a bit much for my budget. I think 1TB will suffice for now.
