So I got that psu from my teacher that Cryptomined (I've bought from him before so I trust him on the components). I do however use 500 watts for my build, not 1000w. So I was thinking of maybe selling it to buy a cheaper PSU and using that money for more RAM or SSD. I do like the recommendations you gave on the GPU since I do want to play games at 1440p (Fortnite only) with high frames but I don't know anything about GPUs. I did spend more on the CPU since its main use would be only for work, school, editing, and YouTube but do you have any recommendations for more GPUs? 

Used psus are basically worthless so you wont be getting more than 80$ for that 1000w rmx, hence why i reccomend buying used psus for more budget builds since you can get quality for 40-60$ instead of a new trash youd get around that price that has no wattage (no futureproofing) nor any warranty (<10 years)

 

3080(ti) go for around the same price as the 6900xt/6950xt though less vram

You simply test the thing yourself before buying

 

If you can buy through an eshop that has good customer protection that also works cause if its broken you simply file a complaint and get your money back

 

Here in indo i have tokopedia so if i buy a gpu or whatever part and it turns out broken i simply file a complaint and wait for my money to be returned, though there are better deals on facebook from time to time which may not be able to ship to you so you have to come in person which i havent done before and likely wont for the forseeable future

So I just bought a motherboard that was recommended to me, for a 1500 build.  By the LTT forum.  https://pcpartpicker.com/list/FZr9Xk . I was wondering, specifically about the motherboard ( MSI B650 GAMING PLUS WIFI ATX AM5 Motherboard) what does it mean plus wifi? does it mean it already has wifi to it or does it mean it can support wifi like I can connect it to my wifi that's in my house?

It means that it has WiFi included with the board, either via having the WiFi module soldered directly to the board or socketed into it.

 

All you'll need to do for WiFi is hook up the antennae and install the drivers if your OS doesn't already have it installed for you.

Wifi is integrated onto the board so you dont need a wifi card to connect to wifi, gaming plus is just the name of the mobo tier so the non wifi version is just the b650 gaming plus, now i see how that can be kinda confusing naming wise =p

 

 

And god damn 80$ for a 1000w rmx did you buy it used or something?

 

btw you can get a 6900xt or 6950xt for <500$ used and itll outperform the 7800xt
