Thanks for the reply.

This is full spec I believe. Just copy pasted it without bottom nonsene.

Budget is around 2-2.2k

There's a bunch of stuff missing, including the config link that means we don't have to re-create your spec to make suggestions.

Also, you have selected the 7950X, which is great for content creation and less good for gaming. Do you have content creation needs?

 

[brothawini]

Thanks for reply.

I have edited first post. Link is added

This PC is going to be strictly for gaming.

Are You advising diffrent processor would be better?

Thanks

Strictly for gaming I'd change a bunch of things.

Your CPU is actually slower in gaming than the "lesser" 7800X3D: for pure gaming purposes, that's the single fastest chip there is. You have more memory than a gaming system needs. You only have a single small SSD. Your cooling is overkill, especially for the 7800X3D. And you have extra stuff you probably don't need: the USB card, the fan. You can then afford a way, way better graphics card such as the 4070 Ti Super (stupid name, great card) or the 7900 XT. I'd go with the former.

Cool, that brings it to around £2070 without the Solidigm P41+. Are they M.2 drives? The Tuf B650 has three M.2 slots so that'll be fine.

Yes they are. Still got one 2.5" as well but its kind of obsolete now.

Thanks again.
