New pc build planning

V3noe · November 30, 2023

Hi there, I'm planning to build a new PC for next month. I've made a list of components that, in my opinion, form a strong build. However, I want to gather some insights and opinions, before I buy anything.

My primary focus is gaming, mostly Call of Duty, at 1440p with a refresh rate of 165Hz. I also play games like Rust, BF, Assetto Corsa, and RDR, mostly multiplayer gaming.

I also stream from time to time

Here's the list of components I'm considering:

Processor: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D
Motherboard: Gigabyte B650 AORUS ELITE AX ATX AM5
CPU Cooler: NZXT Kraken x63 (I already have this from my previous PC, and I've checked that I can get an AM5 mount for it)
Case: Lian Li PC-O11
Graphics Card: Gigabyte WINDFORCE OC GeForce RTX 4070
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR5-6000 CL30
Storage: Adata XPG SPECTRIX S40G 1TB (I'm also gonna reuse this from my previous PC)
Power Supply: NZXT C850 (2022) 850 W 80+ Gold

My budget for this build hovers around 13,000 Danish Krone, which roughly translates to 1800-1900 USD. I'm open to any feedback or thoughts on this setup.

I'm open to changes in the build:)

Can't say I'd change anything except the RAM. I'd run G. Skill 6000Cl30 instead, it's just more reliably stable on AM5 than Corsair.

Look at the 7800XT, seems like it's 15% cheaper for you. Performs as well as the 4070.

Thanks for the suggestion regarding the RAM, I'll look into that.

Although I'm aware that the 7800XT is a bit more budget-friendly, my previous encounters with AMD graphic cards weren't positive. I had a lot of issues when I had AMD before, so I had switch to Nvidia, and that resolved everything. I'm willing to pay a bit extra.

Cool, I like that you acknowledge it. Lots will argue this and that.

All I aim to do is inform, if you still want what you want after that... enjoy it, sir.
