This is where I stand on my first PC Build, any suggestions are more than welcome even on items which are already picked.
I'll be occasionally playing games so this build is more focused towards productivity.

CPU - AMD Ryzen 9 7900
GPU - AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT
Case - Montech King 95 Pro
Motherboard - MSI MAG B650 TOMAHAWK WiFi
RAM - Haven't selected yet but I need x2 32 Gb
Storage - Have to select yet
Cooler - If I go with Montech not sure if i need one
PSU - Have to select yet
Monitor - Have to select yet, I prefer to get a 32inch or a wider one


I also have a question if this build can easily support 4K or should I stick with 1440P?

Hey there, this looks like a great build. I have just one suggestion regarding the motherboard:

Try going with AsRock B650 Steel Legend - It has a PCIe Gen 5 Slot, which gives you a bit more longevity in the long run in terms of GPUs. (it's double the bandwidth of that Gen 4 on MAG B650)
Another suggestion to consider is the AsRock X870 Steel Legend. I went for that one because it also features USB4 and has slightly faster WiFi support. (of course, this is only good if you're ever going to use the USB4 connectivity)
For RAM - got 6400/6800 MTs with CL of 30-32 ~ make sure it is 2x configuration as 4x configuration can't work fast.

When it comes to storage, I am a Samsung fanboy - so I always recommend Samsung 2 TB 990 Pro
For the CPU cooler,r I'm not sure what to get. I always opt for Noctua air coolers (currently using NH-D14) since I don't like AIOs
For PSU, I would go with Superflower or Seasonic or any other option that's approved by the PSU Tier List that you can Google online :) (I went for NZXT C1200 Gold)

I have no idea which monitor to get. I heard great stuff about Gigabyte M32U Model :)
This should be great for 4K to a certain degree. It depends on the games that you're going to play. The majority of titles will run on Medium/High settings well above 60 fps. (I think that this GPU is more suited for 1440p, especially if you play fast-paced games and need 150+ fps)

May your new build serve you well :) Good luck. If you have any questions, I might be able to help.

ahhh the all amd build, very nice. I prefer asus mb msi is ok tho i would def think about going for a 870 chipset, and the 7800x3d has dropped in price along with the black friday deals. also have you considered getting a new gen 9000 series cpu.
