Ryzen 7 7800X3D + RTX 5060 Ti 16GB

Workable pairing with a caveat: CPU is faster than NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB needs.

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
650W or higher
CPU + GPU alone draw ~362W under load. 650W 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
DDR5-6000 CL30, 2 sticks
AM5's sweet spot is DDR5-6000 with EXPO enabled in BIOS - one toggle, stable, warranty-safe. With RAM prices elevated right now, starting with a single 16GB stick and adding the matching one later is a reasonable play, but dual channel is where this platform performs.
CPU + GPU cost
₹1,00,800-1,11,300
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.
