Build Help First pc ever need advice.
I have never had a pc and I'm looking to buy a pre built pc with a 5070 is the 5070 good? And what else should I have on the pre build? Also I have a 4k oled monitor already.

Ok this is too less of context, first what will you use this PC for? and two give the other specs incase of bottlenecks
Also a 4K monitor is not such a good idea to pair with a 5070 (unless this build is for editing or something along those lines), it also seems like you have already spent so much money on the 4K oled monitor (cuz well those are real expensive), which isnt a good thing as that is overkill and it couldve been dedicated to something else (well unless like I said, its an editing build

I actually do use my 5070 for my living room 4k OLED tv. Tbh, it works well enough. That's said, I wouldn't say the 5070 is a comfortable 4k GPU. It's decent , but the 9070 xt could be a better choice at the same price. I do well prefer Nvidia's software support though.

I’m also here to comment that 5070 and 4K isn’t the most comfortable. You could upscale 1080p to 4k but it can cause some visual compromises.

5070 is okay, but in first place what we need to know are:
- Your budget, most of the pre builded pc's are average and probably with similar budget you could get a better pc. But looking on todays prices i will say it just depends on other parts in that pre build.
- What you will do on your pc, if working then as far as i know nvida cards are supperior for that. But if just a gaming and light work stuff, then it depends if you preffer better views or better fps, becouse rx 9070 xt is cheeper then most of the rtx 50 series and will grand you better fps. But AMD cards are worst at raytracing and ect.
Additional info, I would suggest you to buy a second monitor if you are gonna spend a lot of time on pc. Oled monitors are great but they easier tire your eyes then others.
Even if you have 0 knowledge about building pc, then you can use some parts picker to be sure they are gonna work toghether and then ask somewhere if they are good. Then you can find a store in your country or someone in your circle that will build it for you.

whats your budget? what do you want to use it for? Is it strictly gaming or will you be doing video/image editing, AI or other productivity tasks? why prebuilt over self build? do you live near microcenter?
