Budget: My budget for this are $1.500.000 CLP (1,750$ USD Approximately), or even a little higher.

Approximate Purchase Date: Hopefully at the end of January/2024

Use Case: Basic programming stuff (to learn, really) and gaming at 1440p, with a170hz monitor.

Are you buying a monitor: Yes, in the next days im buying the Asus TUF VG27AQ1A for $300.000 (345$ USD)

Your Monitor Resolution and desired frame rate: 1440p 170hz, hopefully it can run Baldur's Gate or Elden Ring at more than 60fps stable. (?

Preferred Website(s) for Parts? Anywhere reliable.

Parts Preferences: Intel CPU and Nvidia GPU.

Overclocking: Maybe, i don´t know that much about this feature yet.

Additional Comments: I have to buy case fans for this build? And, actually i don´t have idea if this build will even work, so any advice at all would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

It looks good other than you want a set of 2x16GB of RAM not 1x16GB. Do you have any links to where you will be purchasing from?

Hi thanks for your comment, is there any problem with buying 2x16GB of RAM? I´ve heard that 32GB RAM its a little too much for what i need but if i can get there i would like to have 2x16.
And for the links question, i really don´t have looked at any site yet bc i wanted to know if my build works, but one of the lowest prices i saw it was at $53.900 CLP (about 62,12$ USD).

You want low latency RAM such as DDR5 CL30 / CL32 seeing how games take advantage of low latency. Personally if I was going to game at 1440 I would look for less expensive cpu, I would go with a set of DDR4 3200 CL16 and put the savings into the graphics card.

Ok i understand. If i should look for less expensive cpu and go with the DDR4 RAM for a better graphics, what can you recomend me? Hopefully within my budget.
Thanks for that link, i´m actually using the page that the guy from that comment says, but i´m seeing that also shows some trustful retailers, so it is really useful.

And i'm not sure if i should pick the 7800 XT or the 4070 (this one) https://pcpartpicker.com/product/KQ...x-4070-12-gb-video-card-gv-n4070eagle-oc-12gd
What do you think? i was debating between the GPU you said and this one, but i saw that this one have 3 fans, so i guess is a little better.
