Long story short, after 15 years I am wanting to do a new PC build again. I have been using Mac for the past decade but wanting to get a decentish gaming rig going as the kids are now getting to an age where they are getting into games and I also recently started playing games again, mostly CS:GO atm but would like to get into more titles.
I have a Macbook pro for my daily work so this PC will solely be for leisure, gaming, and the odd school project . I chose the components with the intension of still being relevant for around 3 years and also be upgradeable. My budget is around 40k (including monitor), would love some feedback on my choices, and if everything will work well together. I was going for something that can handle 1440p.
Any thoughts, suggestions, or recommendations would be welcomed. Thanks!

CPU | Ryzen 7 3700X | Could probably go for a 3600, but I like the idea of having that bit of extra cores and thread to future proof and the RGB prism cooler |
MB | MSI x570 Tomahawk Wifi | |
RAM | Ripjaws G-Skill F4-3600MHz 2 x 8GB kit | |
GPU | XFX Radeon RX 5700 XT THICC III Ultra | Chose this mainly because it is decently priced and 1440p g-sync monitors are hellishly expensive and difficult to come by |
HDD | Sabrent SB-RKTQ 1TB M.2 Nvme | Could potentially go for a 512GB NVME and then a 1TB SSD as secondary |
PSU | Super Flower 650W SF-650F14MT | I assume this comes with the cables |
Case | Phanteks PH-EC600PSTG | Hoping to get the white one in stock |
Monitor | AOC CQ27G2 27" WQHD | There's a 32" one for couple hundred more, must investigate the drawback. |
Any thoughts, suggestions, or recommendations would be welcomed. Thanks!
