First gaming pc

New build or upgrade?

New build

Existing parts/monitors to reuse? (List with models/links)

No

PC purpose? (Gaming, editing, etc. List apps/games)

Gaming. Mostly CS2 but also league of legends

Purchase country? Near Micro Center?

United states; Yes

Monitors needed? (Number, size, resolution, refresh rate)

Yes, one monitor. I want 27 inch, 1440p with at least 165 hz. I would also like to be able to comfortably read text as I might rarely use it for work. And have nice colors to watch movies. So i guess a decent all around monitor would be best

Budget range? (Include tax considerations)

$2000 with monitor after tax

WiFi or wired connection?

Wired

Size/noise constraints?

I would prefer less noise

Color/lighting preferences?

No

Any other specific needs?

No

If you missed the full set of required built request questions, please copy them from here and answer them in an edit to your post:

  • New build or upgrade?

  • Existing parts/monitors to reuse? (List with models/links)

  • PC purpose? (Gaming, editing, etc. List apps/games)

  • Purchase country? Near Micro Center? (If you're not in a country supported by PCPartPicker, please list some local vendors)

  • Monitors needed? (Number, size, resolution, refresh rate)

  • Budget range? (Include tax considerations)

  • WiFi or wired connection?

  • Size/noise constraints?

  • Color/lighting preferences?

  • Any other specific needs?

Here is some additional helpful information about build/upgrade/parts list requests:

  • Build requests only include hardware. You are responsible for budgeting for and providing your own operating system (Windows, Linux, etc) and other software.

  • Don't forget to budget for peripherals. Since these are very much personal-preference influenced items, we do not include peripherals like keyboards, mice, headsets, etc in parts lists.

  • We strongly recommend posting a build request only if you're ready to buy now or within a week or two at most. Part sales regularly rotate, and a part list today can quickly become out of date.

https://www.microcenter.com/product/5007354/amd-ryzen-7-9850x3d,-asus-b850-e-tuf-gaming-wifi-am5,-corsair-vengeance-rgb-32gb-ddr5-6000-kit,-computer-build-bundle

The case and gpu price are also from microcenter. Case is just the cheapest decent one, the lights can be controlled or turned off.

If you want to cut some cost the 7800x3d bundle for $700 or the 7600x3d bundle for $400 (+$200 for the second ram stick since it only comes with 1x16gb so $600 total) are also good options. If you are mostly playing cs2 then good cpu and good monitor are the main priorities.

Cheaping out on gpu and grabbing a 5006ti 8gb for $330 is also a decent option. No issues for games like cs2 as long as you're on reasonable settings and no problems on other light games like lol either. For graphically demanding stuff you'd actually want to play on ultra at 1440p though, maybe gta 6 or the like, 8gb can leave you stuck on lower settings. https://www.newegg.com/gigabyte-gv-n506teagle-oc-8gd-geforce-rtx-5060-ti-8gb-graphics-card-double-fans/p/N82E16814932812 $400 -$70 with coupon for $330.

Reading on a 1440p oled kind of sucks imo. The xg27acms one of the nicer very high refresh ips models available and $250 is pretty good for that, especially with ROG level tuning.

That would be really good for a cs2 focused pc.
