Go to solution Solved by will0hlep,

I'd suggest something like this:

 

CPU: 5600 or 5600X

CPU Cooler: Peerless Assassin or Phatom Spirit

Motherboard: A cheap B550 board, provided it has good reviews and all the IO you need

RAM: 2x8GB kit of DDR4 3200Mhz CL16 RAM

GPU: the cheapest 4070 or 4070 Super you can find

 

Then pick the other parts using the remaining budget.

If you like raytracing you should avoid the 4060 Ti.

 

A Z series motherboard is likely a waste of money if your only using a 12400F.

 

At this performance tier and price bracket, AM4 will almost certainly offer better performance for the price.

 

DDR5 isn't the be all and end all of computing. Firstly, the DDR5 kit you've selected is very slow. Secondly, the money you'd save going DDR4 would be better spent on the GPU.

 

Cut out the RGB, it is a waste of your rather tight budget.

 

Also, an AIO for a 12400F is total overkill even in a hot climate like india.

Common build advice: 1) Buy the cheapest (well reviewed) motherboard that has the features you need. Paying more typically only gets you features you won’t use. 2) only get as much RAM as you need, getting more won’t (typically) make your PC faster. 3) While I recommend getting an NVMe drive, you don’t need to splurge for an expensive drive with DRam cache, DRamless drives are fine for gamers. 4) paying for looks is fine, just don’t break the bank. 5) Tower coolers are usually good enough, unless you go top tier Intel or plan on OCing. 6) OCing is a dead meme, you probably shouldn’t bother. 7) "Bottlenecks" rarely matter and "Future-proofing" is a myth. 8) AIOs don't noticably improve performance past 240mm.

Would a better gpu be in the budget?

Are you sure about the AIO, its not a great performing AIO for a ridiculous price

Didn't realise until now, but this is actually worse than I first thought. Avoid GPUs with less than 12GB of VRAM. A 4060Ti 8GB is going to struggle even with raytracing turned off in some recent releases.

what about a 3060 with 12GB vram for the same purpose?

As they arent the most commonly bought parts and so the "tax" they come with is based on consumer demand and cost to make the parts. Less bulk production means more money to make them and therefore more expensive to buy for end consumers

If you like raytracing you should avoid the 4060 Ti.

 

A Z series motherboard is likely a waste of money if your only using a 12400F.

 

At this performance tier and price bracket, AM4 will almost certainly offer better performance for the price.

 

DDR5 isn't the be all and end all of computing. Firstly, the DDR5 kit you've selected is very slow. Secondly, the money you'd save going DDR4 would be better spent on the GPU.

 

Cut out the RGB, it is a waste of your rather tight budget.

 

Also, an AIO for a 12400F is total overkill even in a hot climate like india.

How about this then?

going to struggle just as much as while VRAM will go up, performance drops quite a bit

how about a Zotac 4070 Super Twin Edge 12GB then?

This would be alot better. Only buy the extra case fans if you find that some part of the system is running too hot.

I might be experienced, but I'm human and I do make mistakes. Expand for common PC building advice, a short bio and a list of my components and other tech. I edit my messages after sending them alot, please refresh before posting your reply. Please try to be clear and specific, you'll get a better answer. Please remember to mark solutions once you have the information you need.

 

Common build advice: 1) Buy the cheapest (well reviewed) motherboard that has the features you need. Paying more typically only gets you features you won’t use. 2) only get as much RAM as you need, getting more won’t (typically) make your PC faster. 3) While I recommend getting an NVMe drive, you don’t need to splurge for an expensive drive with DRam cache, DRamless drives are fine for gamers. 4) paying for looks is fine, just don’t break the bank. 5) Tower coolers are usually good enough, unless you go top tier Intel or plan on OCing. 6) OCing is a dead meme, you probably shouldn’t bother. 7) "Bottlenecks" rarely matter and "Future-proofing" is a myth. 8) AIOs don't noticably improve performance past 240mm.

what about a 3060 with 12GB vram for the same purpose?

The issue with the 3060 (and the 4060 Ti 16GB) is that for raytracing it just dosn't have the performance required to raytrace well in many modern titles even at 1080p.

 

According to benchamrks, the 4060Ti 16GB fails to achieve 1% lows of 60fps with raytracing turned on (1080p, DLSS and frame gen, so absolute best case) in games like Cyberpunk, Spider-Man MM, Hogwarts Legacy and Hitman 3. This means that you'll find frequent and highly noticable hitching.

 

If you want to play these titles and newer triple A games and you can strech your budget to a 4070, 4070 Super or RX7800XT then (imo) you really should.

(If you were not looking to raytrace or play on max settings the above wouldn't apply, but then you should consider a 7600XT or 7700XT)

thanks a lot bro it cleared a whole lotta confusions of mine. I'll go for a 4070 super now with ddr4 rams, b550m type motherboard and r5 5600x.

If you like raytracing you should avoid the 4060 Ti.

 

A Z series motherboard is likely a waste of money if your only using a 12400F.

 

At this performance tier and price bracket, AM4 will almost certainly offer better performance for the price.

 

DDR5 isn't the be all and end all of computing. Firstly, the DDR5 kit you've selected is very slow. Secondly, the money you'd save going DDR4 would be better spent on the GPU.

 

Cut out the RGB, it is a waste of your rather tight budget.

 

Also, an AIO for a 12400F is total overkill even in a hot climate like india.

I'd be delighted if you could kindly tell me how to tell whether the ram kit you pick is fast or slow? is it the CL factor or is there smth else too? also in many cases, the cabinet's airflow specs are missing. how do i judge that?
