Is my planned build as good as it can be for gaming? in c/linux_gaming

You know what, you're right in a way. I would honestly rather spend the extra €100 and get guaranteed results, especially since I want to water-cool and get as much performance out of that bad boy. Someone else mentioned the Ryzen 9 7900X3D, but that one is almost always out of stock, and even when it isn't, it costs almost €700. Thank you for the links, though, in case I need them.

It is just a pain in the ass to find out what network module exactly is being used in the motherboard before buying it. ASUS only says the ethernet is Realtek, and that's about it. I just hope that those one or two online probes I saw of the board on Arch that said it worked OOTB were correct.

CPU: Ryzen 9 7900X3D

Mainboard: ASUS TUF GAMING X670E-PLUS WIFI

GPU: Sapphire Pulse AMD Radeon™ RX 7900 XTX Gaming OC 24GB

I had to switch from the Ryzen 7 7800X3D because there is a huge shortage where I live, and it got to the point where it was €100 more than the Ryzen 9. I know I will have a slight performance hit if the game uses the non-3D V-Cache, but I prefer that to spending almost €150 more than the MSRP.

Little side question: Will the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth on the motherboard work in Arch? From what I could gather, the drivers for it should be in the latest kernel, but I'm not 100% sure.
