I am planning to build a new trading PC.
I read already the documentation from the website and planned the following according to given recommendations:

12 core CPU (is there any difference in SC performance between AMD and INTEL?)
AMD offers e.g. AMD Ryzen 9 7900X3D with integrated graphics. Would you recommend a dedicated GPU or are those integrated GPUs strong enough?
I use 2x 4k monitors.
2x 16 GB DDR 5 RAM
2x 1TB NVME (1 for Windows, 1 for SC as recommended)

I normally have 2-3 Chartbook open (NQ,ES and CL) with 4 differents charts (1 min, 5 min, 4h,1d) and 3-4 studies in the 5min tile (VWAP, 2 EMAs, Volume by Price, cum. Delta)
In the futures I will also use TPO, T&S and the DOM more often. So I think they will need some more performance. I also plan to add a 3rd screen (news, youtube etc.) and maybe 4. screen for additional charts.

Hope you can give me some tipps and recommendations.
This is my latest "build" on paper:

ASRock B650M PG RiptideMainboard
AMD Ryzen 9 7900X3D (12 cores) with integrated graphics
Corsair DIMM 32 GB DDR5-7200 (2x16 GB)
2x Seagate FireCuda 530 1 TB NVMe


Thanks :)

This system is certainly fine. The integrated GPU should be fine.

We are not aware of performance differences between Intel and AMD but definitely get the CPU, that gives you more processing power at a better price.
