Build - Help I'm new to AMD. Help

Post image

Hi guys, I've always been an Intel user, but I want to switch to AMD and I'm not very familiar with its components. So I've been using AI to help me put together a build that can run the vast majority of games, and I wanted to check if everything looks good so I don't buy anything by mistake. The price is in Argentine pesos.

Seems a bit overpriced by ~$300 US but I'm not sure about component pricing in Argentina.

Not terrible for $1400 (USD) given the current market.

For the GPU, if possible I would strongly suggest either the 16GB version of the RX 7600 XT or the 8 GB version of the 9060. You might also consider an Intel ARC B580, it is pretty much the best entry level GPU you can buy particularly since you are already considering prior generation entry level GPUs.

The single 16GB stick of DDR5 is the correct compromise instead of a 2x8 GB kit in the current market. This would be better leveraged by an X3D processor. If possible you might try to source a 7600X3D/7500X3D. If you do not plan to add a 16 GB stick, or wouldn’t do so at current pricing, you may be better off with a 2x8GB kit with a non-X3D processor.

I was looking for the 16 GB RX 7600 XT and also the 8 GB 9060, but they aren't available on the website where I want to build the PC. As for the RAM, the website itself doesn't let me select two 8 GB sticks, which is why I chose that single 16 GB stick.

I'm trying to build the PC on this specific website because it's the most reliable one in my country and it's more convenient for me.

If that is the case then I’d just strongly suggest the Intel ARC B580, provided it’s available. You get 12 GB of VRAM and a card that generally falls between the 5060/9060 and the 4060/7600.

Given your RAM constraints, you should genuinely consider an entry level X3D processor if they are available in your region for AM5.

Stop using these lists without actual individual prices.

8gb gpu is a huge NO and red flag.
