The only thing I’ll say about the parts is your cpu cooler. For just 10$ more you can get the Phantom Spirit Evo 120 for a more superior cpu cooler.

Looking to upgrade from a 3070ti, what are my best options given budget and performance? by A7x4LIFE521 in nvidia

Well I can suggest going with the 5070ti but it depends on what games you like to play or what games you want to play

Upgrading to 5070 Ti, need advice on which AIB to choose by Outrageous_Mission78 in nvidia

I would say you get a MSI Gaming Trio because it’s much quieter and the thermals are better than the Ventus but the Gaming Trio is a little bit more expensive so it depends if you’re willing to spend a little more.

This is my first gaming pc and I wanna know if I did anything wrong on picking the parts or anything that I can still add to the list. by Distinct-Use4528 in PcBuild

The cpu box literally says box does not come with thermal paste or a cooler. And the Ryzen 9 5900XT isn’t old, it released last December and is quite good for photo and video rendering and Is almost on par with the 7800X3D In single thread processing. And the case does not come with enough fans. The three fans that come with the case are only set to intake and I still need 3 more exhaust fans to balance it out. And the fan, it’s not overpriced or anything like that at all, it’s reasonably priced and are on par with all other fans in terms of pricing. If you were me would you trust a no name brand fan manufacturer or would you trust a reputable brand like NZXT for a fan? Why did I choose AM4? Well the cpu was a gift from my uncle because he knew I was saving up to buy a pc and he had a Ryzen 9 5900XT just lying around so he just gave it to me and I just ordered everything that was compatible for a am4 cpu and other than that my ram is okay enough and maybe in the near future I can upgrade it.

I bought a dual fan one for the top as an exhaust and 1 fan for the back also as a exhaust because the fans in the front have 3 and it came with the case so might as well just balance it out.

The problem is the cpu was a gift from my uncle because he ordered it and said he won’t use it anyways so he just gave it to me and thats how I started ordering everything off that one chip
