Hello everyone, as mentioned in the title, I'm assembling a new PC. It's intended for mid-range gaming use:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7600
Cost: 25,000 RSD / €213.68
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16GB
Cost: 61,000 RSD / €520.51
Motherboard: ASRock B650M-HDV/m.2
Cost: 13,500 RSD / €115.38
RAM: Kingston Fury Beast KF560C40BB DDR5 (2x16GB)
Cost: 12,500 RSD / €106.84
SSD: Kingston KC3000 1TB
Cost: 11,900 RSD / €101.71
PSU: MSI MPG A750GF
Cost: 13,500 RSD / €115.38
Case: LC Power Gaming 802W-ON
Cost: 7,000 RSD / €59.83
Overall Cost: 144,400 RSD / €1,234.33
I’m mostly confident with these parts. The only doubt is about the GPU. Is the RTX 4060 Ti a suitable pick, or would there be a more affordable alternative within my budget?
I’m already past the budget limit (1200e), so I wouldn’t invest further in another GPU.
If anyone has any recommendations for other components, I’d appreciate it.
Thanks!

Unfortunately, the 4060ti is the least attractive price-to-performance card Nvidia has offered recently. The 7700xt and 7800xt models are also available at a lower cost than the 4060ti. This option offers better value while delivering improved speed.

Based on the chart, both options appear to be strong performers at a lower cost compared to the usual price. It seems worth considering the 7800xt for 50e savings.

One guideline is to budget 2x the cost of your cpu for the graphics card. You are good there. What kinds of games do you play? At what resolution? Fast action games and higher resolutions need stronger graphics cards. Here is tom's gpu hierarchy chart with some performance comparisons: Worth is something only YOU can determine. In my experience, when faced with choice between low cost/lesser and higher cost, better parts, the joy of savings in the cost of the lesser product is transitory while the second guessing from picking the lesser product lasts much longer.

I mainly enjoy single-player games, with resolutions up to 1080p or 1440p. Appreciate the link—I'll take a look.
Your other point is correct, I'll remember it.
