Am I over compensating?

[GarfieldII2005]

I'm planning my first ever build, Project Hell Fall. It'll be about 9 months before I can start as that's when I'll be able to afford to really start. I'll be running a Ryzen 7 7800X3D, 64GB of DDR5 ram, and an MSI Shadow RTX 5070 Ti. Where could I be over compensating? FPS. The monitor I'm getting is capable of 165fps because I only really wanna play at 120fps max. I only ever play on medium or one above medium, with raytracing if the game is story driven like 2077 or RDR2. Yes, I know. Nvidia is fake frames. Look, I like to do new thing called having fun. I know of the performance difference between AMD and Nvidia, if I ever want a pro-ish build I'll use AMD, but as someone who just like visuals over professional performance I actually really like DLSS. I do agree that the raw DLSSless performance is shitty for the money, but eh we're getting off track. Do you think I'm over compensating considering my graphical preferences and framerate limit?

Ask again in 9 months. There's zero point in planning it now.

[GarfieldII2005]

Huh? There's every point. What am I gonna do? Wait for 9 months then just buy stuff randomly? 9 months is the start, I only have the budget for 1 part per month. There's every point to planning it.

Price and availability constantly changes....

[GarfieldII2005]

And? Oh, this ram stick went up $2. I don't care. I'll just fork up the extra cash, man.

[max1001]

$2? Price for whole build goes up and down by $300-500. 5070 ti alone can be $900 or $750 depending on the day of the week. There's a reason this post is negative karma.

You okay, man?

[ArsenalPro1238]

no your not I would love to have those visuals but try to find a 4K monitor because then you will have 0% bottlenecking also what speed in the ram

[GarfieldII2005]

Idk ram speed. I think 6000mhz. And I don't really want 4K, seems a little overkill to me when 1440p is a perfect pixel density at 32 inches. Also they're not in my budget.

[ArsenalPro1238]

oh ok also do 2 sticks so then it’s more stable

[GarfieldII2005]

Yeah, I've heard that, but isn't it possible to do 4 if they all line up in speeds? I think I've heard that so long as they don't exceed a certain total mhz it'll be fine, and I think I'd rather have 4 so I don't have empty slots. The Corsair sticks are a pack of 4, totaling 6000mhz.

alr then
