My 2nd build ever and first time building on my own. I was happier than a pig in mud when it power on and posted on the first attempt.

My build (nothing fancy, just for some 1080p gaming):

  • AMD Ryzen 7 7700X
  • 32 GB G.Skill Flare X5 DDR5
  • ASRock AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT
  • Gigabyte B650 X AV V2 Motherboard
  • CoolMaster Master Liquid 240L Core ARGB
  • Cosair RM850e Power Supply (850W, Gold)
  • Cosair 3500X Mid Tower Case
  • 2TB PNY XLR8 NVMe Gen4 M.2 Drive*

*Edited: Forgot to add the storage.

Oh the irony.

Hey, OP. Cool purchase! Hope you have loads of fun building and playing on that awesome rig.

Thanks! My last build was when the Nvidia 10 series and 7th Gen Intel i7s were the latest releases. This build feels like a rocket ship compared to my old rig!

That’s going to be one awesome upgrade that you’re seriously going to feel. Any plans on what to play first to test it out?

I plan on playing Halo Infinite to test it out. I was, what could barely be called, playing on my steam deck previously so I'm interested to see how much better it looks and runs on my new rig.

I do! I haven't played it yet, but I do own it. I'm wondering how well it'll play on this build.

It should run very good.
