| Part | Recommended specification | Why it fits | Live price |
|---|---|---|---|
| CPU | AMD Ryzen 5 7600 with included cooler | Six Zen 4 cores are a sensible gaming base and AM5 leaves room for later upgrades. | Check Prisjakt |

|---|---|---|---|
| CPU | AMD Ryzen 7 9700X | Eight efficient Zen 5 cores give gaming headroom without consuming the GPU budget. | Check Prisjakt |
| Cooler | Quality dual-tower air cooler | The 9700X does not need an expensive liquid cooler for a reliable gaming build. | Check Prisjakt |
| Motherboard | B650 Wi-Fi motherboard | A mature B650 board is enough; update BIOS before installing a newer CPU if required. | Check Prisjakt |
| GPU | Radeon RX 9070 XT 16GB | This is where the build earns its 1440p and 4K capability; compare simple coolers before premium OC models. | Check Prisjakt |
| Memory | 32GB DDR5-6000 CL30 EXPO | Fast enough for a balanced AM5 gaming setup without chasing fragile memory tuning. | Check Prisjakt |

Core pairingAMD Ryzen 7 9800X3Dwith GeForce RTX 5080 16GB
A sensible RTX 5080 model should keep the basket near 28,000-30,000 kr; premium cards can break it alone.
| Part | Recommended specification | Why it fits | Live price |
|---|---|---|---|
| CPU | AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D | Keeps CPU-heavy games and 1% lows strong without moving money into unnecessary workstation cores. | Check Prisjakt |

| Part | Recommended specification | Why it fits | Live price |
|---|---|---|---|
| CPU | AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D | For a gaming-first machine, extra workstation cores are optional rather than automatically better. | Check Prisjakt |
| Cooler | High-end air cooler or proven 360mm AIO | Prioritize measured noise, warranty and case compatibility over display screens on the pump. | Check Prisjakt |
| Motherboard | Quality B850/X870 board | Pay more only for the ports, expansion and networking your workflow uses. | Check Prisjakt |
| GPU | GeForce RTX 5090 32GB | The uncompromised GPU option, but poor value for normal 1440p gaming. | Check Prisjakt |
