I want to thank @Why_Me for all the help…you have given a mom and her son the help to successfully build our first pc. I may have been a headache for you lol but all of your advice has got us to where we are. Thanks again from the bottom of my heart!!

This is what I put together after research and finding things in my price range. SSD: PNY CS2140 1TB M.2 NVMe Gen4 x4 Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) - M280CS2140-1TB-RB RAM: Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro SL 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 3600 (PC4-28800) C18 1.35V Desktop Memory - White (CMH32GX4M2D3600C18W)...

Could this setup handle SSD read speeds of 5000mb/s or 7000mb/s? Just curious.

I also ordered the gigabit GeForce rtx gamers oc 3080 12 gig. I read a few better reviews on this one and was able to get my hands on one also. The Asus Prime z690-p DDR5 motherboard and DeepCool ak620 will be enough for either of these cards though? I’m fixing to order. Thanks for all your help.

Ok I managed to get my hands on an open box excellent at Best Buy of this GPU insteadGIGABYTE GeForce RTX 3080 EAGLE 12GB 256-bit GDDR6X Graphics Card with 3x WINDFORCE Fans…is it good and will the rest of my build with i7-12700k be fine with it?

I’ve came across this GPU in my price range ASUS GEFORCE TUF GAMING NVIDIA RTX3080 V2 OC PCIE4.0 10GB GDDR6X, is it an ok one? If so, what budget friendly but decent DDR5 motherboard works with it running i7-12700k?

Great thanks. I like having both options of internet.

One more question…could I use this motherboard ☘ ASUS PRIME Z690-P WIFI Motherboard LGA1700 ATX PCIe 5.0 DDR5 and it be compatible with everything else I picked? I’m asking because it is wifi compatible…

Thanks a bunch!

No problem…once again thanks for all your help!

I sure will. What would be a good monitor for it? Also will I need any adapters for the motherboard that you know of? Thank you for all your help…you will make a young man very happy.

Great thanks! If I use this combo SUS Prime Z690-A LGA 1700 Intel 12th ATX Motherboard + Kingston FURY Beast 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR5 5200 Combo and a 3070ti GPU what other components would need to be changed from the first build you suggested?

His main game is Hearts of Iron 4 and after researching it is recommended in 4k.
