Hello, I would like to help you here.

 

I was looking over you list and I made some changes. I was actually able to get you a much better PC with even more VRAM on the GPU and save you an extra $200. I went with an all AMD Build to save some money and have somewhat of an upgrade path. I even put in a higher wattage PSU in case you ever wanted to upgrade the GPU. The M.2 Drive that I picked has 1GB of DRAM Cache to help Load Games much wicker and it has much higher Speeds than the TeamGroup that you had.

 

Look everything over and let me know what you think.

 

If you have any questions please let me know. I can be reached here or I can be reached much quicker on Discord 24/7. Here is my Discord: Wizardsnapper#2772 I am also available if you need help before, during, or after the Build process on Discord through Voice or Video Chat.

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/kHRQGP Your build is OK, could definitely improve. Once check mine out, 13700KF+Used 3070 (if that's okay with you)+ DDR4 B760 (it is not as big of a problem as you may think)+ 16GB Dual Channel 3600 DDR4+ AOC 1080p 240Hz.

7600 not worth it. The cheapest "value" Ryzen 7000 CPU is the Ryzen 7 series 7700X, and 7800X3D. 7950X/790X3D come with slightly less performance (negligible) than 13900K/13900KS/14900K.

Value means nothing when a 7700 pushes us over the budget. Why are you referencing i9's in this budget?

 

And depending on what you play the cheaper, cooler running, less power using Ryzen 7 3D's beat the i9's of Intel's.

 

At the price range for gaming 7600 is very competitive compared to intel at the same price range.

It's essentially a 5800X3D (wins some and loses some against it). And that's not a bad gaming cpu by any stretch of the imagination. And cuz it has 'only' six cores doesn't mean it's underpowered. It has the clocks to support it. It's base clocks might be low but it's boosts are high

And a 1tb drive for 90 bucks? Yes it has dram (but that won't make a difference in game loading times) and it's pcie gen 3 (why)

A 13600k or even a 13400f shouldn't bottleneck the 3070 at 1080p

You could easily get a 7800 XT in this budget with a more forward looking AM5 system and one that has 32 gigs of ram
