I'm using my current GPU, so it won't be listed here. For reference, it's a Radeon R9 390x. The setup includes an AMD Ryzen 7 5800X, MSI MAG B550 TOMAHAWK G.Skill Ripjaws V, DDR4 RAM at 32 GB and 4000MHz, CL16 (F4-4000C16D-32GVKA). The power supply is a 750W 80 Plus Platinum. Dark Rock Pro 4 – are these components suitable or should you adjust anything?

I’d change to a 3600MHz CL16 setup since most 5000-series chips cap around 1800Mhz on Infinity Fabric. For optimal performance, keep Clock and Mem Clock aligned at 1:1, aiming for 3600MHz (or 3600MT/s). If they reliably hit 2000MHz on the IF clock, it should work well. As for the case, what kind are you planning to use?

I’ll stick with my existing setup, but I’m unsure what it’s called. What RAM would you suggest? You mentioned a G.Skill Flare X DDR4-2933MHz CL14-14-14-34 1.35V 32GB model—based on its specs, is this the best option for your needs?
