Rate this build out of ten, and tell me if it's top or mid-tier.
Here is a list of upgrades for your ASUS TUF gaming computer. It has a black tempered glass case with an Intel Core i7-14700K processor running on a Z790 motherboard. You are using DDR5 RAM, specifically the Kingston Fury Beast RGB EX kit in 6GB memory slots. The power supply comes from Seasonic and supports PCIe 5.1 speeds. Your hard drives include two solid-state drives (SSDs) from Western Digital Black SN850X and three traditional hard disks (HDDs). You also have water cooling with the EK-Nucleus AIO CR360 Lux model, which looks cool on top. Finally, you are using a ZOTAC GAMING GeForce RTX 5070 Ti graphics card to power up your system.
No pics? So, how i can rate it? 🤔 As for components, well; Black fishbowl case - would struggle with thermals due to no front intake for airflow. CPU - good one. AMD Ryzen 9000-series would've gotten better price-to-performance ratio. MoBo looks solid. 16+1+2 VRM. But white heatsinks/accents? RAM is good, albeit CL36 is a bit high. CL32 or CL30 would've been better. Can't say about aesthetics, if black or white heatsinks. PSU... while Seasonic, for the most part, is good, this can't be said to all PSUs they sell. Core GX is mediocre quality. For that build, bare minimum what would be in there, would be Seasonic Focus, while Seasonic Vertex is better choice and Seasonic PRIME is the best choice. SSD M.2 - SN850X is solid choice. CPU cooler - 360mm rad. Well, it cools but i'm not fond with AIOs. To me, air coolers any day of the week (can explain as of why). GPU - Depends on use case, either good enough of falling short. Also, aesthetics are stripy/gray. Doesn't match the rest of the build. Other drives - Can't rate those since those depend on your needs for storage space. Overall, few flaws (e.g PSU) and aesthetic (color) mismatch. Once you've assembled the build and share the pics, then i can rate the assembly quality (e.g cable management). In the mean time, feel free to look what i have. My builds pics and specs are in my sig. Rate them too if you like. Edit: Your build rating wise; CPU - high-end GPU - mid-tier RAM - mid-tier PSU - below mid-tier (Focus would've been mid-tier) Overall: mid-tier build.
If that's where you're buying things from, then it might just be Crete. And what about the cost? Are you looking at something on a German website called Skroutz.gr or are you using ours here at https://www.custompc.com.cy/?
