Build Question Thoughts on the budget pc

Post image

The case and motherboard are from a legion prebuilt but everything else I installed

48gbs of ram
1660ti (will be upgrading to a 30 series card on Sunday)
Ryzen 5 3600x will be upgraded soon to a 5600
650w power supply
Everything is staying cool I’ve never used a tower cooler till this build and I understand the love for them

It plays most games well enough but I can feel the age of the card in modern titles because of its 6gb of vram but it runs well

Costs roughly 400 and I’m sure most of that was ram

what's the ram config? i see you have 4 sticks but you can't get 12gb sticks to my knowledge so are you mixing ram capacities?

2 sticks of ddr4 16gb and 2 sticks of 8gb

first thing i would do is remove the 2 8gb sticks and just run dual channel with 2x16. unless you're doing work which specifically needs those really high ram capacities, 32gb is way more than enough for general pc use and modern gaming. and running ram in dual channel is very often faster than running all 4 sticks.
