Building my first PC

Looking for recommendations for my build. 

I'm currently building my first pc and am looking for some help picking an AIO cooler and gpu for my build. Im looking at more of a gaming oriented setup so something that would benefit FPS  would be great.

Currently these are what I have:

CPU: AMD7800X3D 
Motherboard: MSI MAG X670E Tomahawk
RAM: Corsair Vengeance DDR5 32GB 16x2 6000mhz
SSD: Samsung 970 EVO+ 1TB NVME
PSU: Corsair RMX 850x plus gold
Case: Corsair 5000D
GPU: $700-1000 dollar range CAD
Cooler: $200-300 dollar range CAD

Plus a few extra Corsair fans for the case for more airflow. What would be good recommends and what  changes would you make to the current build?

Lose the X670E board unless it has features you want, as any B650 board is more than enough for the 7800X3D (or any AM5 CPU).

 

Use that money to grab a 7900GRE or 4070 Super.  

 

CPU Cooler, if you WANT AIO, go for it.  Otherwise any dual fan air cooler can handle the X3D without issue like the Peerless Assassin.  For AIO, look at Deepcool, EK, or Arctic.

What is your budget? Here’s what I’d reccomend, you can get a really great gpu for that cost if you’re ok without an aio (the peerless will perform similarly)

If you're deadset on going with an AIO then it's pretty tough to beat the Lancool 216. This allows you to use Nvidia DLSS.

The memory kit should be 2x16GB DDR5-6000 CL30 with EXPO profiles. Corsair has XMP only kits which would be less desirable in this build.

 

 Consider an ATX 3.0 compliant PSU. The RM850X is not an ATX 3.0 PSU. The RM850X Shift is.

 

The 7800X3D is relatively easy to cool. A Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE or Deepcool AK620 would be a good choice. The savings can go into a larger NVMe drive and higher performance GPU.

 

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.
