From AMD: Nothing beats the RX 5700 XT in price to performance and from NVIDIA: The Greatest GPU of All Time: NVIDIA GTX 1080 Ti.

3.(Chloe W.) What is the best GPU for the Ryzen 5 7600?
From NVIDIA: RTX 4070 Super 12GB and from AMD: RX 7900 GRE. Both cards are 1440P beasts and can even play 4k in most games.

5.(Bryan D.) What’s the best CPU currently on the market?
For gaming, the fastest CPU will be AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D. It's not only a fast CPU in general, but it's also the fastest CPU for gaming right now thanks to its large 3D V-cache design.

6.(Kyle T.) What is the best advice you can offer for someone who hasn’t built a computer before but wants to?
Do some research on the parts for the build. A good start will be YouTube channels like: ZTT, PC Builder, Scattervolt and others. Also, some of these YouTubers do live building sessions where you can watch and take notes.

7.(Leo C.) What’s your choice between Intel and Ryzen?
For gaming, Ryzen and for productivity work, go for Intel.

It’s best to snake the cables behind the motherboard tray and to not tie anything down until every cable has been connected and is roughly in the ideal position
