Hello vendo232, and thank you for your submission to Gaming PC! If you are new please check out our rules over at the wiki [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/gamingpc/wiki/rules)!
We have recently added the useful feature of Title Flair! You can set this manually by clicking Flair under your post once you have submitted your post, but if you missed it in the rules there is a much better way that will automatically flair your post!
To do this simply add what your post is about in brackets before your title. For example for a Build Log you can type [Build Log] before your post so that it looks like this; [Build Log]My new awesome build!, and the bot will automatically set your flair to Build Log! This works for Build Log, Build Showcase, News, Hardware News, Hardware Release, Discussion, and Miscellaneous!
Also remember that this is a place for discussing and sharing our love of Gaming Computers! This is NOT the place for help building or determining what parts you should buy, that is better suited for /r/buildapc. Troubleshooting questions should be directed to /r/techsupport. Thank you again!

Ryzen 5 5600 and gigabyte B550m ds3h
Im using the 3060ti with a 5600x on an asus b550 board (but you can prolly get away with 5600 non x cause they have similar performance). Recommend asus or msi boards.
I’d say a 5600 and a b550 is all you really need, and is quite cheap. There’s no other cpu gpu combo that beats it for the price. A cheap tower cooler and 16/32gb of ram on top of that and you’ll a great system.
For reference, I run a 5600x+3060ti+16gb of ram at 1440p ultrawide with no issue. While I wouldn’t recommend a monitor with as high of a resolution as mine, a standard 1080p or 1440p will work great with it.
i5 13400F
if you plan on playing games like rust or squad I would recommend saving for a 5800x3d
R5 5600(non x) and a good b550 motherboard, try to get one that supports ryzen 5000 out of the box, many of them don’t and it’s a very big hassle to update the bios
do you have the RTX 3060 Ti
if yes then the Ryzen 5 5600 and the Pro B550M-VC WiFi/B550 UD AC
if no then get the RX 6700 XT and the CPU + motherboard combo I mentioned above
