I’m about to buy a new PC but I haven’t built one in years, so I’m a bit lost about the components and combability.
I use the computer excessively for Office, coding, and gaming so I’m trying to buy the most powerful I can afford.
From what I read it is recommended to use water cooling with AMD R9 7950, so I will go one model lower.
I read a few reviews and going AMD made sense. It has lower power consumption and identical cores also in most cases have better performance. But if there are problems and glitches with AMD builds reviews don’t show them.
At some point I will buy Gen5 SSD so a compatible motherboard is necessary.
I’m not going to Overclock so I don’t need faster ram than the officially supported max speeds. I need a silent CPU cooler.
AMD Ryzen 9 7900X3D
Asus ROG Crosshair X670E Hero
Nvidia 4800
Crucial T700 SSD
Corsair VENGEANCE 5200 Mhz 64gb ram.
Case and cooler I haven't decided, any recommendations?
Any reason to prefer Intel over AMD? I
