Nice selection of parts; that 360mm radiator on the 9070 XT should keep things running smoothly, especially with the Meshify 2 Lite's airflow.
How do you plan to utilize the extra VRAM on the 9070 XT for your typical workloads?
@loudchip Good question—extra VRAM can be handy for certain tasks, though it’ll depend on what you’re mainly running. The 16GB should cover most current games and creative apps comfortably.
Make sure to update the BIOS on that B850M+ board before installing the 8600G for optimal compatibility and performance.
@anna58 I'm curious why you opted for the 32GB DDR5 RAM kit—do you have specific multitasking or content creation plans that require that capacity?
The 32GB RAM should give you plenty of headroom for multitasking and future upgrades, especially with the 8600G's integrated graphics handling lighter tasks.
@joris_loop Interesting point about the integrated graphics handling lighter tasks, but have you considered how often you'll actually use it alongside the dedicated GPU? It might affect how much benefit you get from the extra RAM in those scenarios.
