I swapped out the RTX3070 for the RX6800. I have a RM850W psu that i might swap out into this new build as it is modular but other than that, this will be my new build. what do you guys think?

I've always been an Intel boy so just makes sense to me, even swapping out the 3070 to the RX6800 was a big change for me as i've always been Nvidia. MOBO doesnt allow for a higher Ram frequency so hench why its 2666. (not wanting to spend so much as i had to change the PC after already purchasing it) I have a spare 2TB HDD and a SSD to put into it also.

As someone who has also been an Intel boy my whole life - I have been converted... sadly with this new generation of ryzen cpu's it makes no sense to sit on intel technology that is near 6 years old

I had noticed they've got a lot better from benchmarks and only reviews. It was between the 3800xt and 10700k. I7 will be overclocked anyway
