Some prices not shown in the list are directly taken from the store themselves.
Some of the parts recommended in North America market is simply not available some times and prices are different too. But just need your feedback on whether this build is good for generic 1080p, 60 fps gaming for the next few years or so of high end games like cyberpunk, doom and monster hunter wilds or whatever. I am already on the upper limit on my budget which is why I didn’t go for the 7800x3d for the cpu or higher specs for gpu. I would like to upgrade to this at a later time but would just like a system for now that performance on an okay level.
Mobo+ CPU: MSI B850 GAMING PLUS + RYZEN 7700 $618
RAM: GSKILL X5 FLARE 32GB CL36 $139
SSD: Crucial T500 Pro 7300MB/s Gen4 Nvme M.2 1TB $110
HDD: 1 TB, taking from my prev system
COOLER: Phantom Spirit 120 SE $48
GPU: 9070 XT Sapphire pulse $1039
POWER SUPPLY: DA1000R $185
CASING: Cooler Master Elite 502 Argb Black TG Casing $82
Total: $2221
The build is overkill for 1080p 60fps.
I’d recommend a 7600XT for 1080p 60fps. The 9070XT is just unnecessary for 1080p in general, it only makes sense to me if you are playing in 1440p or 4K. Sapphire Amd Radeon Pulse RX 7600XT 16GB OC GDDR6 is listed for $505 SGD in your PDF.
You don’t need a Ryzen 7 7700 (or 7800X3D). A Ryzen 5 7600 is a better value and in reality will not be a performance difference in gaming compared to the 7700. You can combo a Ryzen 5 7600 with the same B850 motherboard for $539 SGD in your PDF.
Ryzen 7 7700 is 65W; 9070XT is 300W. You don’t need a 1000W PSU to power a 400W computer. You’d be fine with a 600W PSU for less than half the cost. Silverstone Attis 650W 80+ Bronze Psu is $65 SGD in your PDF.
Total savings: $733 SGD to spend on games or put towards a future upgrade
You could also consider Sapphire Pulse Amd Radeon RX 7800XT Gaming 16GB GDDR6 for $659 SGD, but I think you’d be good with the 7600XT. I don’t recommend a 7700XT because it has 12GB of VRAM while both the 7600XT and 7800XT have 16GB of VRAM.
Hi thank you so much for such a detailed recommendation, appreciate your time in this reply. There is a few rationales for my choices:
I chose the 9070 xt for the new fsr4 and the ray tracing capabilities and a sort of future protection for native game performance as support for the older card may end sooner and RMA problems as well, since this card manufacturing will slow down significantly. As of now I’m still okay with 1080p but may look into switching to 1440p or 4k in the future. But for this price point, do you think it might be better to buy the 7800 XT and buy the next gen of upgraded cards when they come out with better tech?
the ryzen 7 7700 was picked over the ryzen 5 as the ryzen 7 uses the am5 socket and the mobo would be better future proofed for future cpu upgrades if necessary and it would reduce the hassle of completely ripping out the old mobo and installing a new one.
the power supply I was stuck in a dilemma too. The gpu nowadays seem to have a bit of unstable power draw and peak well beyond their usual operation stages every now and then. And with newer gens, the general power draw of gpus themselves seem to be growing at a crazy rate and I feel like the gpu itself might get it’s own socket supply at the rate it’s going. That’s one of the reasons I went with 1000W but yea 600 seems way more reasonable with your reasoning. I’ll switch down to 600 instead.
do you think the mobo is an okay pick or would you have any other recommendations?
Of course all this is just whatever I read online and could be biased and overly cautious or straight up wrong. So let me know if any of the above rationales falls into any fallacies or any other recommendations or feedback you may have. Really appreciate your time in helping out a noob like me! Thank you!
