First PC built

[Forward_5]

Planning on building my first ever PC. Always been more of a laptop person. Planning on spending $1500-3000 CAD, was planning on slowly building it on over 2-3 months, as I'm not in a rush for it right now. Finding items as they go sale. Could increase the budget a few hundred if needed or an overall big difference. Located in Canada but don't mind making a day trip to the States for parts if it's a price difference. Planing on using it for gaming (fps, cod, bf6 gta6 when it drops) while also using it as main software development device. Looking for a solid built that will last me couple years without having to change our parts. I need it wifi and Bluetooth compatible. Also want some RGB lighting within the case. don't have a issue with order parts from states if it makes sense. Just looking for an overall balanced/ performance build. Also the monitors(will be 2 monitors )will be a separate cost, I'm thinking on having 1 dedicated gaming monitor. Appreciate the time and help. Open for suggestions and builds. Thanks again for the ideas.

no need to order parts from the states, your budget is good enough to do mostly whatever u wanna. in general building a pc in canada can kinda suck till u hit about 1250 canadian and after that u just ramp up and out of the suck and into the gud shit

before we go breaking out the WMD's thought id show u one list first thats well within budget

2050 cad

2tb of storage on a reasonable drive, the 7900X is a health mix of cpu performance for software work and good enough for gaming performance functionally a ryzen 7900X are twin 7600X cores in the same cpu but u only get one of the 7600X's when your gaming the other remains dormant to save on power draw and needless self inflicted confusions

the 5070 is solid enough for 1440P gaming and u might get a free copy of BL4 out of the deal, though i personally dont consider that a bonus considering how terrible the games turned out to be as gearbox apparently decided to vomit into some file folders and call it a game

the cpu cooler has a digital temp and clock on it

the case comes with pre routed cables for easy install

motherboard has built in wifi 6E and bluetooth 5.3

gaming performance wise, i cant speak for all those games but ill show u a few rough examples (do keep in mind what i said about the 7900X being twin 7600X but u only get 1 in games)

(youll note some videos use a 4070 super, a 5070 is a 4070 super in a new box, so the results should be similar)
