I think that machine should handle games at 1440 just fine, let alone 1080. Looks like a nice build!

Good call going with a Radeon for Linux. I have a 9070XT and it runs great! I used to have an nVidia GPU, and while it was fine for the most part, it was occasionally problematic (especially with gamescope)

One thing to check is the power connector on your GPU. If it has a 12V-2x6, getting a power supply that provides the same connector will make things easier.

1. I am not recognizing the drive. However, I would strongly recommend against QLC due to performance and reliability issues. You would be much better served by TLC or better yet MLC drives.
2. The motherboard can take two drives. It also supports on-board hardware RAID. I would strongly suggest getting two identical drives, and putting them into a hardware RAID-1 array for redundancy (remember: redundancy is not backup). This will also alleviate some of the aforementioned QLC issues, allowing you to run QLC drives more safely.

I recently bought the 7600x and ended up returning it to get the 9600x instead. The 9600x is about 5% more with similar performance, but uses 1/3rd less wattage, which also means 1/3 less heat to dissipate. It helped my thermals and fan noise a bunch.

I’m on mobile so I can’t check every part. But if the 7600 is cheaper than the 7600x, go for the non-x version.

Don’t cheap out on the PSU.

Mainboard: does it have all the features you need or may need in future? Make sure that you can flash the bios without cpu/screen through a flash button. This saved my ass more than once.

Rest looks good, same specs as I have and it runs everything I throw at it. (ryzen 7600, 32gb, 9700xt)

Would recommend just checking your motherboard/embedded controller has good linux support

I have a 9070XT but AM4 5700X. Been able to run everything comfortably at min 1440p 60 frames without AI upscaling, most games sit well above that, around 90-120fps.

Knew that the 9070XT would be bottlenecked, so I invested a bit of time and money into good thermals to finetune the CPU and RAM but haven’t bothered since everything runs well, just XMP + Auto OC settings currently and my benchmarks are well above the norm. So I think down the line if you wanted to squeeze some more performance you could invest in some better cooling but I doubt you’ll need it

One last thing for gaming on linux, caching a HDD with a second m.2 drive through LVM will let you play games directly off the HDD with massively reduced load times/texture loads.

sheeesh yeah that’ll handle 1440p. (it’s better than my PC). Btw the 7600x is the same as the 7600, so go for the cheaper one. As for the rest it looks good considering you’ll be using Linux. I would look into whether northwestrepairs worked on that GPU to determine if it will stand up to time. I know he recommends some brands as being the best and marks some to avoid entirely. Otherwise go for the cheapest memory rn - Gskill is fine I think I have that too. Also make sure your power budget is double what you’re expecting to consume in high loads due to transient spikes and etc.

Buy a house for $150K

I would recommend checking out pcpricetracker.in for better price comparison. Because I have seen prices of vedant computers and md computers fluctuating and getting very low.

Also, if were in your place, I would consider buying used parts and build on AM4 platform and get a better GPU like 9070 xt and save some money.

Nonetheless, with upscaling you could game at 4K easily, with this build.

Also check for used and refurbished parts. It can save you a lot of money.

Can’t convert INR to USD in my head, but I’m comparing costs between parts - PSU looks unusually cheap. I would typically clock a good one to be about the same price as a motherboard.

I would double check the PSU - it’s one of those things where you really shouldn’t skimp out on.

Edit: as another commenter pointed out as well: PSU wattage seems low. You want a wattage rating that’s about double the expected max power consumption

You can also typically save some money by getting a non-X CPU instead of X. eg, 7600 instead of 7600X. They’re usually virtually indistinguishable in performance, but the non-X is typically much cheaper and has lower power draw (and better thermal headroom as a result).

The 7000 series is also last gen, so you might be able to get a used CPU and save extra money there. CPU’s virtually don’t degrade (unless you actually just abuse them), so there shouldn’t be any technical concerns about getting a used CPU. Of course, watch for scams when buying used parts.
