All,

Below is my list of components for my first DIY build. Please have a look and comment as I am not nearlly up to date on my pc tech / standards. Also, what am I missing? The GPU is up for discussion as I am not a gamer.

Thanks

Greetings. What is the intended use of the PC and your overall budget?

Use case is just a mixed bag.....nothing like a Mod&Sim or heavy CAD like application. Right now I am at $2200 out the door with 64GB of DDR5 Ram but no GPU

Thanks
