I'm trying to decide between two gaming PC builds: one with a Ryzen 5 7500F and a 9060XT, and another with a Ryzen 7 7800X3D and a 5060Ti. The price difference is about 210 euros. The 7500F build comes with a Tier B PSU and CL30 RAM, while the 7800X3D build has a Tier C PSU and CL36 RAM. Which build do you think offers the best value for performance?

I’d go with the Ryzen 7 7800X3D + 5060Ti if you can stretch your budget. It’s a more powerful setup overall, especially for CPU-heavy games, but if you're sticking mainly to CS2 and War Thunder, the 7500F + 9060XT should be fine. It's just that 210 euros could be worth it in the long run for better performance.
Yeah, but if you're mostly playing those titles, the 7500F could still give you a smooth experience while saving some cash for a better PSU and RAM.
