I just built an RTX 5090 gaming PC — here’s what I used and how to build your own

To me,this is a bad build for both budget and performance.

Recommended parts for budget:
MSI z790 (any) WiFi 7
I7-14700kf
Corsair vengeance ddr5 7000 argb
Orico 4th m.2
Thermaltake or flower 1000w golf/platinum PSU
Sama sv02 (beautiful and cheap with USB c!)
Pick your 360mm aio liquid CPU cooler (it will come with decent thermal paste. All thermal paste can be re-applied after about 2 years to keep max performance.)

This build is half the price. My best advice: don't look at benchmarks. Look at gameplay comparison videos online. Intel beats AMD every single time when it comes to smoothness. AMD CPU and GPU always have this horrible stutter. When you have high refresh rates, it looks choppy. Intel/Nvidia minimize this. There is a reason that they dominate the steam hardware surveys.
 
Unbelievable!! Author claimed he got 30+ years of PC building experience. He don't even perform any motherboard boot test before installing to the casing. Or he must be so lucky that he never encounter any single problem in his PC building experience. N I thought I can learn good PC building trick rather than just another hardware flexing article.

Another extra step is why install GPU when the m/b outside e casing. Due to the IO bracket at the GPU, it will b obstruct if m/b is lay on e table. In order to plug GPU onto the m/b without casing, m/b either need to stack on a box or a test frame. This is more for troubleshoot.

Regardless brand. As long as one who paid is happy with the price/ performance ratio. Don't matter amd/intel.
Most impt is competition between brands. I don't wan Intel to lose or AMD to dominate. Either one of them lose, customer lose.
Nvidia is the best example if there is no strong competition . They can do whatever they want while consumer still suck it up and pay the ridiculous price.
Lastly not sure why u not get the smoothness. I using amd CPU/GPU n it was as smooth as any Intel system which I used.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
I can't believe I found the Userbenchmarks guy in the wild. I recon it's useless to speak with someone who is so far removed from reality, but to anyone looking for actual building advice, look for benchmarks using real metrics (FPS average, max, 1% low, frame times and such) instead of some made up gut feels these deranged fanboys come up with.
 
Profanity removed. Such language is not allowed.

Don't worry, anyone with a working brain or a tiny bit of honesty agrees with you. Just ask any reviewer with a shred of integrity.
I wonder what must have gone wrong in the life of people that go around spreading misinformation on the Internet and doing team sports with consumer electronics. I can get political grifting. I can even understand to some extent what goes on in the head of flat earthers, but the whole Xbox Vs PlayStation, Nvidia Vs AMD, Intel Vs AMD is the most pathetic stuff ever.
