Build Description
I wanted to build a great 1440p gaming build but didn't want to break the bank by getting a 3070 and both AMD CPUs and GPUs have really good deals right now. I have a 5600X and a 6700 XT. This build lets me play Modern Warfare II at over 120FPS with high settings with FidelityFX CAS at 80%. Using FSR would increase it. I also get 90-100 FPS on Fortnite with high graphics and Lumen/Nianite set to the first option.

The 5600X desperately needs a cooler if you don't want it to be at 90C all the time. I picked this because it fit my old GPU's color scheme.
