First PC

[glogger]

Budget (including currency): 2500-3000AUD could be a little over

Country: Australia

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: ill use this pc for gaming and just browsing 

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): link for what i have already made: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/M3Xywz 
I also need 1 monitor and keyboard. Im probably going to buy early next year

please help because I have no idea what I am doing lol.

So this should be a good PC for gaming:

CPU: a 5600X is a good choice still, maybe wait for Black friday, it might drop in Price then

Cooler: the Vetroo V5 is a nice air cooler from Amazon, RGB and it can be had for 30€ or US Dollar, maybe 40 in Australia.

Motherboard: The B550 elite is a good board, comparable to the MSI B550 A Pro but here a little cheaper. I would choose one of the two if I were you.

Memory: Teamgroup has good RGB Memory for a nice Price, 16GB will be enough, if you need more, you'll have two more free slots to double capacity.

Storage: So I went with a SSD HDD combo, but if you want, you can fit 2 SSDs in there. I personally find, that an HDD is still good for game storage, but opinions can differ. The 970 Evo Plus is not that expensive in Australia, but maybe check out the SN750, if its cheaper, then go with that.

GPU: a nice RX 6700XT here, in White, to keep a white theme. If you want more white, the Ram is also available in white. You could also go Nvidia, but the 6700XT outperforms the similar priced 3060TI in most games.

Case: The P360A is a nice case, available in white or black and with good airflow and RGB, checks a lot of boxes. And good price/performance.

PSU: A solid 750w unit will be enough, the 5600X doesnt need a lot of power. But you can fit in a 3080ti or something like that with the headroom you have.

Monitor: an Asus Monitor with 1440p and 165Hz, not much you can do wrong here.

Keyboard: an underrated keyboard in my opinion, good for the price and nice software. Also mechanical.

This will be much better indeed.

6700XT is much better than 3060, 6600XT would be better buy in current market too, But budget allows 6700XT and it's definitely good. 3060 is just waste of money at this price.

Only one thing I'd change is buy 1TB SSD instead of 500GB

Thats US pricing.

Also - A noctua NH-U9s? Thats for small formfactor cases and low power CPU's. I wouldn't feel comfortable with it.

The P2 isn't a great boot SSD as it has no cache and therefore a lesser lifespan when used as a boot drive. You also get a few FPS out of Ryzen when using 3600MHz Ram. Its almost the same price nowadays.

 

The rest looks good to me, just the wrong pricing for Australia.
