Post From: Recommendations for new trading PC

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 :)
