CPU (Processor): AMD Ryzen 5 7600
The AMD Ryzen 5 7600 is a fantastic CPU when it comes to gaming at 1080p and 1440p. The reason we did not opt for the newer Ryzen 5 9600X instead is due to the limited performance upside.

GPU (Option 1): AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT
The RX 7700 XT from AMD is a solid graphics card for 1440p gaming. Its 12GB of video memory makes it a great competitor within modern games.
GPU (Option 2): NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070
If you're in the market for an NVIDIA graphics card, look no further than the RTX 5070. Using the latest DLSS 4 in combination with Frame Generation, this card offers ample framerates at 1440p and 1080p.
