Hey everyone,

Hoping some of the experts here can lend me a hand with my current PC configuration. I'm looking to get a general check to make sure everything looks okay, and I'm particularly interested in any advice on how to make the system more efficient.

Could you also let me know if the current cooling system seems adequate for the components?

Finally, if you were in my shoes, what (if anything) would you change or add to this setup to boost efficiency or overall performance?
Any insights or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!
Natalia

It's impossible to say without all of the information asked in the post above, but the build is clearly unbalanced and could be significantly improved.

If you could please provide all of the relevant details, we will be able to recommend the best system for your needs.
