Description
I built this PC for a friend of mine. It’ll primarily be used for gaming.
It’s my first time building on the AM5 platform and it was pretty straight forward.
Part Reviews
CPU
Excellent budget chip in 2024. Not much to say that hasn't already been said.
CPU Cooler
Extremely easy to install, cheap and quiet. Keeps an R5 7600 at very reasonable temps.
Motherboard
Reasonably priced with a great feature set. Cannot ask for much more.
Memory
Cheapest 32 GB kit of 6000 CL 30 at the time of purchase.
Storage
Cheapest 2 TB PCIe 4.0 SSD at the time of purchase.
Video Card
Runs quiet and looks pretty sleek. I have never had any issues with Gigabyte video cards.
Case
Still a very solid case in 2024. My friend wanted to use it specifically in their build. It wouldn't be my first choice as it is beginning to show its age (i.e. HDD cage is riveted to the chassis).
Power Supply
Solid ATX 3.0 PSU. It is very well reviewed considering its price.
