Hey Guys,
So, I decided to build a new pc as my current build with a ryzen 3600 and an rtx 3060 seems to have slowed down in performance, a lot of games stutter etc even after clean install of windows and other troubleshooting.
The build would honestly mainly be used for gaming.
I have come up with something like this after a bit of research;

Looks good to go as is, though I'd look at a higher quality board. I'd also look at a beefier air cooler.

2x SSD's, the smaller drive is for your OS, app's and launchers. The larger drive is your game library drive. It's overbudget by a small margin but you're getting a lot more for the money spent. You could look at cheaper ram, DDR5-6000MHz or DDR5-6000MT/s with AMD's E.X.P.O advertised on it.
To add, for 2K gaming you can downsize the processor to a Ryzen 5 9600x. You don't need the 7800X3D, let alone a 9800X3D but in the above listing you could throw anything at it.

You could save a lot by changing to a 5800X3D and it will keep you going for a while

Which options work with a 5800X3D?
It seems unnecessary to switch to AM5 or upgrade hardware now, as 6 years are still ahead. It’s wiser to keep using AM5 for the near term. Also, depending on the game, it might just need a higher GPU setting.

Avoid recommending AM5 configurations; consider waiting 18 to 24 months for AM6 updates. Got it.
