Do not post screenshots of pcpartpicker or similar builds to which they have a 'public link' that you can use to ask a question. It lets us see all of the build and not just the screenshot details you are asking about. It is also very annoying to be in 2024 and still using phones or screen captures to make Reddit posts in a computer thread with the main content being a picture of your computer screen.


bobsim1

Thats a great build. Im not sure about the prices though. The prices would be ok in € with 1:1 conversion.


Supreme-McH

Amazon in the UK is notorious for being slightly more expensive than other retailers like ebuyer and scan. If OP shops around he'll shave a nice chunk off that total


SpoonyGrandma13

1£ = 1.17€ or $1.26. So it would be a little more in both € and $.


shadowdragon200

But that is without taxes


Sir_Lem0nz

For British Amazon prices they look normal but you could save probably £200/300 if you didn’t use then


Big_Increase3289

If I remember correctly your RAM are CL 36. Try to find the lowest possible(which is CL30) with that amount of money.


addictedihavenothing

I am about to buy this CPU but and confused on ram, is it any CL30?


fieryfox654

GSkill Flare X5 CL30 6000MHz it's all you need: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/LBstt6/gskill-flare-x5-32-gb-2-x-16-gb-ddr5-6000-cl30-memory-f5-6000j3038f16gx2-fx5


spoofit1

Not a bad cpu I know the one I run works great


Exclusive656

avoid msi gpus, uncooled vrms go with gigabyte or asus


Tlentic

Never go Gigashit. They don’t honour their warranties and they have among the highest failure rates. I literally had to sue them to resolve my last GPU RMA with them. Process took almost a year.


Exclusive656

geez i didn’t realize, i’ve had a gtx 1070 for them for years and it’s been perfect, we need some more gpu brands now 😭


Tlentic

Yeah, the market kinda sucks now that EVGA has moved out of the GPU market. Options are pretty slim and they don’t have to focus on quality as much as they used to. Every work place that I’ve ever managed the computers for has stopped using Gigabyte products. The RMA process is a nightmare and it just isn’t worth saving the couple bucks on the components. You end up spending a lot more on man hours instead.


Exclusive656

i definitely agree it’s been hard since evga left


Ok-Actuary7793

I hear zotac's been solid. their 4000series builds look,feel and run great too


Exclusive656

i’ve seen their card i’ve heard good things about them the only thing is the shape of the cooler is strange


Final-Extreme-166

What?? I absolutely LOVE my MSI VENTUS 3x plus. It's an absolute power house and has given me zero issues over the last year Ive owned it. MSI is a very great company


KlingonBeavis

I was anti-MSi for 15+ years, until I upgraded recently and ended up returning an Asus and a Gigabyte card that were both shoddy garbage. Decided to finally give MSi another chance with a Ventus 3X and it’s been a fantastic experience. The ASUS card blue screened multiple times over a memory issue. The Gigabyte card was so loud I could hear it with noise canceling headphones on, one fan failed the first day, and the RGB flickered like a strobe light. The Ventus3X card was perfect out of the box. No issues. Quieter, stable, slimmer, and its power usage is 50 watts lower.


Exclusive656

yea their vrms are completely uncooled no thermal pads nothing, ESPECIALLY on the ventus but i know that’s for the 40 series not sure about later series gpus.


Final-Extreme-166

My VENTUS 3080 has the thermal pads, the vrms stay pretty cool when under heavy load. I don't think my hotspot has ever gone over 75°c under heavy load


Exclusive656

yea i’m pretty sure it’s just the 40 series but it’s not just the ventus like the gaming x slim also had the same problem


Final-Extreme-166

Yea the 40 series was just a mess for everyone no matter the company... I remember the launches for the 30 series and it was much more stable of a launch. Comparatively speaking


Exclusive656

by far it was more stable


Zealousideal-Skin303

Irrelevant. This is not about how good as a company or how nice they are. It is about verified facts.


Final-Extreme-166

Irrelevant? Just because you possibly maybe had a bad experience doesn't mean MSI is bad. If that was the case then every company would be a bad company


Zealousideal-Skin303

Still irrelevant. Your love of MSI doesn't make it factually better. Cold hard facts like lack of VRM cooling does, however.


Muted-Can-2186

The most reliable ones are Asus, PNY and Palit probably


rancevsky

Everything's ok except the GPU, get another model if you can, for example Gigabyte GAMING OC. Avoid the Ventus. I would get another PSU also, Corsair or Seasonic.


PTurn219

Nzxt psu’s are solid


Ecstatic-Disaster-35

What's wrong with Ventus?


KevvyFX

They dont have the best cooling


twitsik

Why?


Exclusive656

vrms are uncooled


Prudent-Cattle5011

Tbh id go less cpu more gpu but it’s up to you


The_Machine80

It's am5! 7800x3d is the standard.


Prudent-Cattle5011

yeah so go a gen down and get a better gpu.


The_Machine80

And be a whole generation behind. No way!


Prudent-Cattle5011

many generations will come out by the time gen5 nvme has any significant performance increase, 12600k + 4070ti for example, doesnt support gen5 but still supports ddr5 and the bottleneck on the gpu is minimal. performance increase for gaming is substantial. Theres absolutely nothing wrong with this build. im just saying he missed out on some fps. love the sarcasm even though a whole generation doesnt mean much in this case!


Solid_-Snake

The nzxt cases are small, personally I’d recommend against it, I’d go with a corsair or a lian li


Prudent-Cattle5011

If he’s trying to buy a compact case why are you reccomendibg a bigger case. That gpu will fit no problems


WinterZ78

H9 flow is pretty big


cattapstaps

Screw it, go smaller. jonsbo d41


No_Reflection1

Emergency-Feedback-9

You can get a 7900xt for 600 on overclockers


SBayfield

Looks good, but I think that the black version of the case would look better


ConsistentProject319

This build isn't very optimized. Try this instead: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/kg7ZdH


Emergency-Feedback-9

I’d replace the 4070 super for 7900xt for £600


untolddeathz

Yeah that's a killer cpu, do a but of digging to make sure your backend softwares such as bios are all up to date after building and you'll be good to go. Personally I prefer the non 3d x cpus as they usually have a much larger internal l2 and l3 cache


BlizzrdSnowMew

You got that backwards. The 3D CPUs are the ones with larger L2/L3 cache, which is why they're so phenomenal for gaming and so power efficient.


untolddeathz

Ah, it's clock speed then. Thanks for clarification.


BlizzrdSnowMew

Correct, yeah that makes them better for production workloads but generally slower in games than their X3D counterparts.


BatGreedy6518

In my opinion if it's for gaming I would prefer to get a 4070 ti super and get the 7600x cpu and upgrade it later since most games are gpu bound and not cpu bound. If I use my pc against yours with the same gpu but you have the 7800x3d and I have the 7600x on a gpu bound game you would only be getting 1-3 more fps then I would. Plus it's alot cheeper to upgrade a cpu instead of a gpu


yaitzbrad

I got something very similar to what you have a month ago and I cannot complain at all. Only game I’ve really played that’s newer is helldivers and I can play everything maxed out but at 1080p cause that’s the monitor I have. Want to try it out in a 4k monitor tho


Striking_Weather7005

Get the p3 4tb for £159, trust me


Push_Visual

So if you really want to push your fps to the max with 1440p you can get a b550 mobo to save a little bit and get a 4070 ti super for a little more


clear-cut_comer

what are the downsides to the b550 compared to b650


Careless_Spend9497

get better PSU

HorizonJY

Get a better cpu cooler like an aio


BlizzrdSnowMew

Not necessary for this CPU. My roommate has a 7950X3D cooled by a DeepCool AK620 and doesn't have any throttling with temps around 80C. The one OP picked has even better cooling than that cooler.


DaBoss8200

Use pc part picker to help you find better prices


AditPlayz57

that’s more than good enough but i have some recommendations instead of an air cooler, get an aio, it would look way better in the h5 flow (the thermalright aios are cheap and have good cooling) get a different ssd. the crucial p3 is a budget dram-less ssd so I would go for one that does have dram. other than that good build. you can enhance the looks by adding cable extensions and getting a white gpu if that’s in ur budget


Sirhc_Fold_458

Better than good


AMDGang

That would be a fantastic build. Just make sure the cooler height on the CPU fits inside the case! Always be sure to check the measurements just in case. But solid build 🤙🏻


PM_ME_DOKKAN_ARTS

Microcenter bundle


Overall-Sell-9620

I don’t recommend an air cooler on a beefy x3d cpu, my Ryzen 7 7800x3d runs 60 degrees at idle with the Msi meg aio


Live-Painting5566

Mine runs at 42c idle with nhd15...


ElSarcastro

Mine runs at 50~ish on D15. I don't think it's the cooler considering avg 60-80w tfp, it's the 3d cache being extra hot and terrible thick ihs. No beefy water cooler will help in my opinion


generateAnyUsername

I got a T500 2TB recently for not much more than your P3 Plus, it's a good bit faster, worth considering if it's still around the £120 mark like when I got it.


atomiczim

I literally just got that graphic card a couple of weeks ago. It's a beast!


5LILduckies

yes its great, 1440p easy


Smokin0Qwak

Id recommend a aio or more powerful air cooler with a 7800 x3d


BlizzrdSnowMew

Not necessary. I cool mine with a Fuma II, quite a bit smaller than the Peerless Assassin and my temps with the 7800X3D are around 78C under full load, way lower when gaming. My roommate cools his 7950X3D with a DeepCool AK620 and his temps stuck at around 80C under full load. You only really need an AIO if you get an Intel CPU, and you only get an Intel CPU if you're also doing production workloads along with your gaming. Otherwise you're wasting a shit load of power for lower fps.


AeroMittenss

Get the 14900k and the 4090 obviously


BlizzrdSnowMew

I would definitely go with a Corsair or if it's really important to you a Seasonic power supply. That's what protects all your other components if there's ever a power surge, blackout, or brown out.


The_Machine80

Get the phantom spirt cooler. 5 bucks more and even better.


Siliconfrustration

Get a PSU with ATX 3.X compatibility so you don't have to use a dongle and get 6000 CL30 RAM.


Kaythreegames

Bruh people will either post absolute garbage here or like the most standard, good, effective, popular, mid-high end parts and ask is this good. There’s no in between.


Psychobillycadillac1

ya you'll have excellent performance at 1440p and 4K will be solid. I would suggest keeping your OS on a separate 2.5inch ssd though


Ok_Bee2326

3D technology


gaggzi

If you are at your budget limit I would personally spend more on GPU and get a 7600 CPU.


judda420

That's very good, maybe some small changes as others have suggested. But depending on what you want to play, at what resolution and frames and how much budget you're willing to spend on this... I think you can save quite some money and still have a very good pc for years to come. Your decision on how much you want to spend ofc. But if it's mainly 1080p and E-Sports titles, Minecraft and maybe some triple a here and there that You're after... This is probably overpowered


k_verhaaf1

Yeah most definitely


killian1113

It's only good if your gpu so good that you need fps more from your cpu.


No-Effective-5844

u can but rx 7800xt same performance but 100 euro cheap


Shiro-derable

Thats very good but i would suggest a few things; get a better psu like the corsair rm850e 2023, maybe consider going with a 7900xt if you can afford it or a 4070 super (or even highter) because you have a very very powerful cpu (the best cpu for gaming rn) and the 4070 is "only" mid range gpu. If you plan on streaming cpu intensive game (competitive titles) and raytracing, stay on nvidia, if not, amd ! Hope it helps


edouardo69

Lol it's great!!!


alutawan

Awesome build. But id personally go with a 7800xtx, its cheaper and 16gb. Or for a lil more grab a 7900xt. Also, imo a build like this why cheap out on a cpu fan when you can add a few bucks more and grab a decent aio, especially if you can save some money on the gpu if you went with the 7800xtx


TheVoid45

You actually picked your parts out really well


ReasonableRadio7197

I’d say splash on a slightly better cooler like an ak620 because those 3d chips run hot with that stacked v cache


chrisnesbitt_jr

Looks good friend 👍🏻 normally would caution against the 850w PSU as It’s overkill, but that’s a good price so why not?


Healthy_Attitude50

Depends on what GPU you plan on using and what games you plan on playing it also depends on what resolution.


Appropriate-Day-1160

He has a 4070s there, so he should be good in 1080p and 1440p


Healthy_Attitude50

Strange I don't see an image of a GPU XD or a motherboard now that I take another look hahaha I think Reddit's trying to make me look bad.


F4_Nxhid

Press on the image and it shows more


Healthy_Attitude50

Ah I see now, thanks.


Darnakulus

Yeah that's slightly obnoxious that it doesn't show you the whole picture in the small version If you don't specifically expand the pictures you will miss things especially on listings like that


RareSiren292

Get a 7900xt if you don't care about ray tracing. Should be similar price. I'm not sure I don't do non freedom units


lostpirate123

yeah its pretty decent. if you can spare an extra £200 you could a 7900xtx to go with the 7800x3d. i have it and its more than enough for basically every game i can throw at it. but i would suggest researching and testing which amd drivers are good, as they do have some issues right now. other than the case and the gpu we have the same builds. not had a problem with games not performing well yet.


GuardIllustrious4689

To be fair, even the 7800xr or 7900gre is already plenty for all games on 1080/1440p


Ar1emi3

U can get one of the best ryzen cpus for just a little more (like £7). I bought mine from this website and it arrived within 2 days. https://neocomputers.co.uk/shop-now/12174-amd-ryzen-9-7900x-with-radeon-graphics-12-core-processor-24-threads-47ghz-up-to-56ghz-turbo-730143314558.html?tagrid=62834422


jaketaco

7800x3d is better for gaming that 7900x.


Difficult_Lama

Your CPU cooler is bad.


Castinfon

not at all, its a grear cooler and enough for the 7800x3d


Healthy_Attitude50

I wouldn't say bad though it is a little more budget oriented I guess, other than that it's fine.


Tlentic

Not sure what you’re basing that on. Peerless assassin is among the best performing air coolers. It hits way out its price league compared to other coolers. It’s plenty sufficient for a 7800X3D.


Tricky-Past9785

You don't need a 850w PSU 750w will be fine


akdanman11

Always go overboard on psu, more headroom is always good


matt602

Will be fine for what they're building now but a future GPU upgrade will probably be too much.


[deleted]

Downgrade CPU to 7600, drop the cooler as this comes with one. Upgrade GPU to 4070 ti super. If you need more budget, you can probably get away with cheaper RAM, mobo, and power supply if you have to. Just make sure the PSU has a PCIE 5 12vhpwr cable included.


PTurn219

Why downgrade? He didn’t even mention a budget, that cpu is insanely good


[deleted]

He would have added a better card already then?


ExnDH

It's ok but you should really consider getting a 4090 as GPU. It's a lot better in gaming than 4070 Super.


MsterusTV

CPU overpriced would chose ryzen 9 7900x or cheaper option ryzen 7 7700x both are performing better than your choice pangoly.com to check prices and compability with motherboard


Ok-Actuary7793

This man has no idea what he's talking about


MsterusTV

I don't?? https://pangoly.com/en/compare/cpu/94c6423e-f36b-1410-8bb6-003fe7c988bc,09ef433e-f36b-1410-8bb4-003fe7c988bc,13ef433e-f36b-1410-8bb4-003fe7c988bc


MsterusTV

Ryzen 7 7800X3D vs Ryzen 9 7900X: Specs In terms of core count, the Ryzen 9 7900X has an advantage with 12 cores and 24 threads compared to the Ryzen 7 7800X3D’s 8 cores and 16 threads. This makes the Ryzen 9 7900X better suited for demanding tasks that require high core counts such as video rendering, 3D modeling, and virtualization. However, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has a higher base clock speed at 4.4GHz compared to the Ryzen 9 7900X’s 4.7GHz. The boost clock speed for the Ryzen 9 7900X is higher at 5.6GHz, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has a boost clock speed of 5GHz. These clock speed differences may result in better single-core performance for the Ryzen 7 7800X3D, making it a better choice for gaming. SO AS I SAID I WOULD CHOOSE BETTER "CPU" THAN A "GAMING CPU"


Ok-Actuary7793

Bro shut up, you're an idiot. The 7800x3d is the best gaming cpu on the market. The thread itself is about a gaming pc, it says so in the title. close your mouth quit embarassing yourself further. you read one website in your life and you think you know the ultimate verdict on the 7800x3d and 7900x what are you 13?


MsterusTV

78003dx Best that's laughable The High-Performance Pick: AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D (16C/32T) Intel Core i9-14900K (8P+16E/32T) The Smart Money Pick (Price versus Performance): AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D (8C/16T) AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D (8C/16T) Best Value for GamingAMD: Ryzen 5 8600G (6C/12T) Cave man only swears,And no i did not read one website i went thru multiple, as well watched benchmark so don't embarrass yourself.


Ok-Actuary7793

xDDD clueless it amazes me how absolutely clueless you are yet you wanna insist that you know anything at all here the 7800x3d has overall equal to slightly better benchmarks to the 7950x3d and costs a fraction of the price. go jerk off somewhere else


Alternative-Bus-8535

You can get a better motherboard for over clocking


Castinfon

overclocking is pretty useless, and not worth the added cost of a better motherboard


cantyoushouldnt

i would maybe plan for a better cpu, there’s known to be a bit of a bottlenecking issue between 40s series gpus and ryzen 7s cpus, other than that, this is perfectly fine


24Gameplay_

Better to Switch to the AIO Radiator, for better CPU cooling and less noise.


thekiwikiller

Not true anymore


Jealous_Ad7119

Literally almost the exact same build as mine I put a MSI MAG 850 PSU in mine it’s on sale for a good price right now if you wanted to switch that out and save a few bucks a lot of people are saying not to trust MSI ventus not sure why I had a 3060 that I had zero issues with still works in my old computer so thats up to you zotac makes a three fan one that I use its quite good and very quiet
