I think everyone is missing the point, most games will strain your gpu more than your cpu. Many games won’t utilize a Ryzen 5 series more then 50-60 percent while your GPU will be maxed out. He’s clarified really well that this combo will work fine, but it could be better.

In games like HOI4 you are always CPU bound, even when you have a high-end CPU. The same applies to CPU rendering programs. Rather than settling for a consistent full-speed, these programs just run faster.

You should do a short on RAM if you haven't already, many people seem to ask on various forums whether they should get 16GB of RAM or more, especially with newer motherboards which can support 32GB+. My advice always is to open all your tabs/programs that you often use, then task manager to view the RAM usage. If you are getting close to maxing it out (especially if you haven't even started up a game yet) then maybe 32GB will be a safe bet but if you don't mind having programs and tabs refresh when you jump between them and a game, then 16GB will be enough for most gaming, otherwise 32GB will allow people with 20+ chrome tabs happily game and browse simultaneously without the fear of running out of RAM.

Still I bought 2x16gb extra for 64gb total but I forgot about speed/timing restriction and got a different faster pair.
That either makes it not boot if I have the faster pairs speed and if wanting to use both pairs means clocking down since old pair can't be clocked up to match.

8 GB of VRAM is not going to be enough for future games (there are many 2023 games that uses more than 8GB VRAM at even 1080p already) despite the 3070 itself is still going to be capable unless you're willing to tune the graphics down to medium-ish to decrease the VRAM consumption.
For comparison, "The Last of Us" already took 4GB cards out of the equation even for the lowest settings of 1080p as it uses around 4.2GB of VRAM. Stack that up the higher you go with the graphics settings (and if you add it with RT as well), you'd be immediately out of VRAM.

I would do the Radeon 6650XT. It is only about $30 more. I would not get a cheaper CPU on a new build as you are already looking at a pretty old system. You might think about 32GB of DDR4 3200 as it is pretty cheap and likely would add only about $20 to the build.
One thing I would not really skimp on is an NVME. Get at least 1TB if not 2 and get a Gen 4. It can also transfer over to your next system.
So 6650XT, 32GB DDR4 3200, and 2TB NVME gen 4 would cost you around $100 extra over a 660, 16GB DDR$ 3200, and 1TB NVME gen 4. Slap it into an ASRock B550 board. 650 is plenty of a PSU. The system will draw less that 400w. Stock cooling and 2 case fans should be fine at this power level. You will also find 1080p is for high end games but you can run 4K fine in a lot of games, especially with FSR.
The dumb thing is you put this against a high end gaming system worth 4x as much and you will likely not notice that much of a difference unless you are looking at them side by side. Even then a sub $800 system like this will do great.

Day 2 of asking can you do a $700 am5 build it can go over $700 but can you keep it as close as possible and make it all new parts I know that the performance won’t be as good but I want it upgradable

[@hamzajaveed841]

I just upgraded my setup from a 10year old setup of i5 4th and 750ti to HP Victus 16 i5 12450H and 1650
😂 didn't had a better option in my range but for its EXTREMELY good and thank god for it

[@Bigpancake-]

Oh lol I was almost about to do that combo

[@estudioskrenak5792]

Ryzen 7 5700x + 64gb ram + RX 7700xt, besta combination

[@ky_mendr09]

Pov: me having 5 5600x with gtx 1060 💀 and no worries guys ima upgrade to something better btv im playing in 4k with 240hz even more 💀 iam worried sum will happend to my gpu so im upgrading

[@user-qt2lo2cu4x]

Maybe he just wanted to play Minecraft where CPU and RAM is everything 🤔

[@paulcleary8088]

I got a good deal on a Ryzen 5600X and 6600XT and have zero complaints. I'm using it mostly for Visual Pinball with 3D anaglyph on a 32" 1140p 165Hz screen, but it runs solid.

[@ITZUMYK]

What about an i7 13700k with 4060ti 8gb,32gb DDR5 7200mhz?

[@tguerra4913]

So you go cheaper on the cpu and more expensive on the gpu creating an imbalance once again. Great advice my good sir.

[@M.Musashi808]

I would rather be gpu bound than cpu. I like to do stuff on computers that are more cpu heavy, so im better off spending extra for a better cpu than needed compared to the gpu im getting

[@jasoncuellar8737]

I know these are shorts and all but I'd like more context for the advice.
I think when we are going budget most components will eventually bottleneck each other. I think the advice should be the least amount of bottleneck that can be achieved with a performance or a component in mind

[@rowanpayne3173]

I have that exact combo and I’m getting over 144 frames on all games I play. The rx6600is underrated af
200-280fps in Fortnite dx12 in pubs
Digital combat simulator on high settings is running 80 fps(this is a heavily gpu intensive game)
Also I am running it over locked at 2600mhz which is a no brainer

[@stevelo2057]

My 5600 paired with 6800, pretty good matches for 1440p. I have no problems ultra setting most of the games I play, but I will probably get a faster CPU and GPU if you are playing newer and more demanding games at 1440p ultra in 2024.
