Bottleneck verdict by resolution
Same engine as our builder. At 1080p the CPU does more of the work; at 4K the GPU carries the load - so the verdict changes with your monitor.

Completing this build
PSU
750W or higher
CPU + GPU alone draw ~335W under load. 750W covers the full build with the 30% headroom I insist on. Go 80+ Gold from a reputed brand - see our PSU tier list.
PSU Tier List India →RAM
Check board type: DDR4 or DDR5
This Intel platform has both DDR4 and DDR5 motherboards. DDR4-3200 keeps the build cheaper with a small performance cost; DDR5-5600+ is the better long-term pick if the board supports it. The RAM type must match the board - our builder checks this for you.
CPU + GPU cost
₹96,800-1,06,900
Indicative India pricing for this pair, GST included. Full builds around this combo typically land at 1.7-2.2x this figure with board, RAM, storage, PSU and case.
