Seem to looks good.
PSU is actually not bad as its in A tier list

They cheapen out on a budget AIO & NVME SSD.

But the AIO TDP spec at 350W altho from review of 13700K with 360AIO will likely hit 90-100C nearly thermal throttle

For such an expensive system, the SSD is lowest of budget segments and altho its supposedly Gen4 but its speed does not even exceed Gen3. For such a price I'd expecting one with 7000-8000 Mbps speeds. If you build a similar system urself you'd probably can get that as prebuilds such as above usually have hidden cost.

Not bad. Basically like an updated RPL version of my ADL rig that I built late last year, with more bling parts.

Still with the poor NVME SSD?

The PSU is okay but do you really need until 1000W? If you drop down to 850W you can put that extra money and get better SSD; WD Black, Crucial P5Plus, Kingston KC3000

Can u oso add on 1 more intake fan; make it 3 in and 3 out? Ideally you want to have balanced or positive pressure inside ur case.

Indeed but at the requester price point constraint, that is pretty much what to expect. At least it got a review and it was judged favourably. Better than that 1st Player.
Plus an RTX 3050 isnt that demanding.

Loaded onto RAM, CPU cooling, & PSU but skimp with poor mobo. Why?

Oso what is the GPU ur carrying over?

3050 isn't decent, its piss poor for an RTX class. But it works as a low end GPU and thus it really don't need a better performing PSU.

For a decent DCDC with single rail, 80+ bronze, from a known decent brand would be this at RM50 over his budget

Its not that I don't agree with you for OP to get a decent DCDC one, I fully agree, but some folks work on a hard budget (especially budget builds) and that RM 50 extra could be a dealbreaker if money could not be saved elsewhere to put into PSU. I know this myself to balance a hard budget build isn't easy, but I somehow managed to get a decent PSU at the budget I could stomach.

That particular GPU ady eaten HALF of ur upper budget, how much more left to build ur system is difficult unless ur willing to drop down a generation ie 12th Gen +B660 + DDR4 + Gen3 NVME.

Then again, Nvidia kakis here will tell you that people who buys Tuf or Strix has more money than brains....

You can take that build, replace the i5 with i7 13700 nonK, ditched the RX6800 & replace with ur 3070Ti. Mind you this is a DDR4 system so if you want DDR5, top up about Rm 500-700 more as you will want to get 6000MHZ RAMs to get a speed advantage over DDR4.

Best for you to refer this if you havent: https://cultists.network/140/psu-tier-list/ which is why i think kakis there didnt reply you.

That Cougar PSU would appear to be in Tier A. But what's off putting is that for this amount of money paid, you will get Teapo caps and for an 750W fully modular PSU you only get 1 EPS CPU power connector which imho is totally unacceptable as its meant for high power usage (the likely mobo usage will have extra 4pin/8pin EPS power).

In that case the recommended Viva Gold is more robust for use as it has dual 8pin EPS, fanless mode, has 4 PCIE connectors for high powered GPUS.

But if you do have specific questions relating to a particular PSU, I think you can put back to PSU tered and the kakis there will layan you then. General ambiguous questions I think they wont laa.

I think you could try to PM 'chocobo7779' if you have specific PSU questions as he is PSU expert, imho talking about a specific part here for too long is a disservice to those who got rig build questions.

Ady out of stock

If ur on such a low budget, go for B660 mobo and DDR4 3200/3600. That DDR5 4800 actual performance is only at DDR4 3200 level but they cost far more.
That money save should go to replace ur PSU as well, iinm that is a Tier E or F unit.

Tight budget? Get B660M (microatx) - MSI Pro B660M-A (make sure A variant!) or Asrock B660M PG Riptide (has BCLK OC for ADL gen CPU)

Want ATX? Get Gigabyte B660 Gaming X (the one with 4 RAM slots)

But then according to that HUB, better to wait for Giga B650 DS3H as it will be even cheaper and yet better value.

Kesian, 10k still cannot get XTX...
All becuz AMD Msia upcar their GPU prices.

Haha atm ur right. But DS3H line is very popular being Gigas basic mobo family so sooner than later it will come

It is what it is. Only RTX 4090 is worth its gold coins. Others in 40 series are regressing tech with specs lesser than their predecessor, only counting on DLSS3 fake frames and cranked up core speeds. Radeons even worse as it gave up chasing, has half hearted RT HW, and just not value for money here.

My advice to new buyers is to either get previous gen RTX 30series/RX6000 at a bargain now and hold off upgrading for at least 2 gens, til Nvidia/AMD come to their senses. Hopefully.

PS. Buying US? Errr if you dont mind not having warranty...

Err thats more of a Rm 6,500 PC than a 5k one.

Haha, was wondering how come every single part was more expensive than that of my own 5k rig then I totaled it myself.

You can consider to spec in similar to mine RM 5k PC ( https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/5339043 ) But that includes monitor so omitting that cost, and many of the other part prices had since came down, you can put the money into a 512GB SSD and a decent 5/6 heatpipe tower cooler.
