Is this a good build? I'm newer to PC building and I'm looking to build a decent computer.

Budget (including currency): $1600~

Country: United states

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: overwatch, Minecraft, video recording, eft, valorant, war thunder, GTA V

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): I have two 24 inch 1080p monitors that can run at 280hz with dp port and 240 with HDMI.

 

I was wondering if a 6800xt would be better for the price or not and if this build would be worth it.

I currently have a PSU at the moment and if I would I would probably upgrade to a 1000w modular one.

I appreciate it but I'm looking towards building an AMD system and I was just simply looking to see if the system I put up there was good.

It works although you want RAM with low profile heatsinks so that it doesn't impede the cpu cooler and you also want lower latency RAM.

+1 to that with just 2 subtle changes:

ASRock B650E STEEL LEGEND WIFI ATX AM5 Motherboard
Samsung 980 Pro 2 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive

Better VRMs on the mobo and PCIe 4.0 instead of 3.0 for the drive. for a total of just $60 more.

Edit:

Actually i'd change the memory too with 

G.Skill Trident Z 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR5-6000 CL30 Memory     

Costs $14 less than the corsair, same specs, but in the QVL for the mobo so in total jsut $46 more or new total of  $1589.59

| Ryzen 7 5800X3D | Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360 Rev 7| AsRock X570 Steel Legend |

| 4x16GB G.Skill Trident Z Neo 4000MHz CL16 | Sapphire Nitro+ RX 6900 XT | Seasonic Focus GX-1000|

| 512GB A-Data XPG Spectrix S40G RGB | 2TB A-Data SX8200 Pro| Phanteks Eclipse G500A |
