I'm working on a PC build that totals around $2000, and I'm hoping to get some feedback on whether it's a good choice or not. I'm particularly focused on CPU and GPU heavy tasks. Here's the breakdown of my components:
- **CPU**: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 3.6 GHz 8-Core Processor - $162
- **CPU Cooler**: Noctua NH-D9L 46.44 CFM CPU Cooler - $85
- **Motherboard**: Asus TUF GAMING X570-PLUS (WI-FI) ATX AM4 - $310
- **Memory**: G.Skill Ripjaws V 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3600 - $50
- **Storage**: Western Digital WD_Black SN850X 1 TB NVME SSD - $85
- **Video Card**: Asus ProArt OC GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB - $1050
- **Case**: Fractal Design Pop XL Air ATX Full Tower - $120
- **Power Supply**: MSI MAG A750GL PCIE5 750 W 80+ Gold Fully Modular - $97
I'd love to hear any critiques or advice if this build is suitable!

I'm curious about your geographic location because the Ryzen 7 3700X is getting pretty dated. If you're building fresh and your budget is $2000, you might want to rethink this setup. There are way better options available at that price point today.
For $2000, this build seems like a total ripoff! You can really upgrade to more powerful and modern components with that budget. Are we talking USD here? It just doesn't seem like a smart investment as it stands.
Yeah, this build looks questionable for $2000. The prices seem a bit inflated for the components you're choosing. Make sure to check current market prices, because I believe you can do better and still stay within your budget.
