I'm gearing up to swap out my old PC that's been around for over ten years. I relied on NewEgg's custom build tool to compile this list. Before submitting everything, I was counting on someone reviewing the parts and pointing out any potential problems. Thanks ahead of time!

This combination is quite uneven. Consider opting for a 7800x3d configuration and upgrading to a more powerful GPU. Z5 Neo is suitable since it supports AMD Expo RAM.

A more balanced setup would offer significantly better GPU performance. While the larger PSU isn't essential for this configuration, it provides room for future upgrades.

I'd like to keep it under 3K. I'll be using this for my monitor but I'm not stuck on it if someone has a better 4K option:
LG 27" 144 Hz Nano IPS UHD Nano IPS Gaming Monitor AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible 3840 x 2160 (4K)

Absolutely impressed with the reduced cost and the quality of the parts. Choosing between your setup and Logain's will be challenging.

Exciting - I'm really looking forward to constructing this and I owe you a big thank you. I assembled my initial PC 10 years ago with full assistance from this forum, and it functions perfectly. However, it struggles with some of the newest titles (Baldur's Gate).

The only true 4K gpu is the RTX 4090. That's an expensive gpu. If you go with a 1440P monitor you can get great frame rates with a much less expensive RTX 4070 Ti Super.
