What parts should I choose for a €2500 PC build?
Asked by

I'm planning to build a PC with a budget of €2500. I'm considering using a 5080 graphics card and a Ryzen 7 9800X3D processor. Additionally, I want to include 2TB of NVME storage and 32GB of RAM. However, I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed with other components I'd need to select. Any suggestions would be really appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Before diving into parts, can you share where you're located? Also, do you have a monitor, or are you considering buying one? If you're going for something nice, OLED might be a great choice!

No worries! Just put all your components into PcPartPicker; it helps check for compatibility issues. For your build, here are some suggestions:
- **Motherboard**: Look for a B850 board from a reputable brand like MSI or Gigabyte, but avoid Asrock with the 9800X3D due to issues.
- **RAM**: Go for 2 sticks of 6000MHz CL30.
- **Case**: Pick one that looks good to you and fits both the motherboard and GPU. Fractal Design is a solid choice while Lian Li is great for flashier options.
- **Cooler**: A dual tower cooler like the Thermalright PS120 works well, or if aesthetics are a priority, an AIO is cool too.
- **PSU**: An 850W unit that ranks B or higher is nice. I really recommend Seasonic.
TechExplorer42: Thanks a lot for the tips!
