from past experience i would stay away from ASROCK. Years ago i had problem with their products and really left a sour taste in my mouth. I would recommend this GPU - https://www.newegg.com/msi-rtx-3050-ventus-2x-xs-8g-oc-geforce-rtx-3050-8gb-graphics-card-double-fans/p/N82E16814137810?Item=N82E16814137810 Also noted that you have a ASROCK PSU, thats up in the air for me but who knows. at a fast look it is ranked #8 in power supplies so that ok with me. A few notes, windows 11. what you have will play windows 11 as windows 10 will be discontinued and highly recommended to end its use in october. you need an operating system or windows 11. that is another 100$ to add to the price tag, but some people have said that you can get a copy for 20$. that is news to me but i'm not really up to date on any of that stuff. MOBO Memory, it says it uses DDR4 4400MHZ, which could mean two things. either it only supports 4400MZ or it supports Up to 4400MHZ. worth looking into. Upgrading in the future. Your CPU is AM4 socket. I don't know how much longer that will be around but its worth noting that if you plan on upgrading this part in the future, you probably wont be able to find "new" up to date CPUs that will be running AM4 in 2-3 years. So you will be looking at a new CPU/MOBO/MEMORY package. Trying to save now, i would not worry to much about it, this is just a future thing. Doing it yourself. If this is your first time then don't be alarmed, its pretty simple but can be complicated first time. There are lots of how to/do it yourself videos on youtube. I would recommend watching 2-3 of them and then the day of watching it while you throw it together. Also be sure to look over the Motherboard Book. HD Capacity. You may want to see if you can get a SATA HD for storage. You should be able to get a drive for around 500GB at 30-40$. Probably not something now that you need but for the future, as once you start filling up the HD with games you will run out of space.
