Hi everyone!

I'm working on upgrading a PC that will primarily be used for office tasks like Word, Excel, Outlook, and web browsing. Occasionally, I also do some basic work with AutoCAD and Fusion 360.

The setup I’m planning might seem a bit overkill, but my goal is to have a system that’s fast, reliable, and won't need upgrading for a long time.

I already have the case and power supply, and here’s the list of components I’m considering:

  • Motherboard: GIGABYTE B650 Eagle AX AM5 LGA 1718 (DDR5, Triple M.2, PCIe 5.0, USB 3.2 Gen2x2 Type-C, AMD Wi-Fi 6E, Realtek GbE LAN)
  • Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 7600X (6-Core, 12-Thread, Unlocked Desktop Processor)
  • Storage: SAMSUNG 990 PRO SSD 1TB PCIe 4.0 M.2
  • Memory: CORSAIR VENGEANCE DDR5 RAM 16GB (2x8GB) 5200MHz
  • Cooler: Thermalright Assassin X120

My budget for this is around $550. If anyone has suggestions on better components or adjustments I could make, I’d really appreciate your advice!

Thanks in advance for your help!
