Proposed build: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/tQzrfy

Looking to build something to target 1440p, would prefer to stay AM5 for future upgrades. Have gone micro ATX because of space constraints. Only really tied to the CPU/GPU combo, so if I’ve missed the mark on case, mobo, etc I’m open to suggestions. My big question is picking a suitable 1440p monitor, would like to keep it under $250 and not sure which direction to go.

Appreciate thoughts and advice in advance.

    If you’re looking to save a few bucks the 7600 non x has a stock cooler which is more than sufficient. The 7600 can also be lightly overclocked with PBO to reach the performance of the 7600x.

      My original plan was the 7600 non X but they seem to be about the same as the 7600x with a thermal assassin. Unless I’m just failing to find the better deal.

        Yeah it seems that in your region its not really a better deal.
