  • At current pricing you might be better off with the regular (non-XT) 9070, it's skewing much closer to MSRP right now, whereas the 9070XT is still marked up such that the price increase outpaces the performance increase. Something else to consider is the 9070XT has a 304W TDP compared to the 9070's 220W, so the regular 9070 is also more power efficient, which may be something you need to consider for the power supply being used with it or your local electricity rates.

  • 9070XT would probably be your next best bet. There's also the 7900XT (not XTX) that I believe has 20GB VRAM but it might be difficult to find, similar to the XTX

  • I'll admit I'm quite novice when it comes to evaluating peripherals, so I went with pretty much the cheapest full size mechanical keyboard they had listed. Unfortunately PCPartPicker doesn't seem to have any mechanical keyboards in close to equivalent pricing listed for NZ.

    Given the pricing and that it's for kids, the cheapest from a brand you recognize will probably be fine. I don't know that spending more money will make much of a noticeable difference until you spend quite a bit more money. In my opinion, a lot of it is just personal preference, like the keyboard size/layout, wired or wireless, backlit or not, any extra shortcut keys, things like that.

    For the mouse I went with what I recognized as a frequently cited best cheap/budget mouse. Something like this might be the closest available equivalent. Again, I feel like a lot of it comes down to personal preference. I don't know that it will matter much in your use case, but I know people look for things like high DPI, high polling rate, light weight, being able to switch DPI on the fly, additional buttons. Trying to stay within the equivalent budget of what I selected before, again I would say the cheapest from a brand you recognize will probably be fine, you're not going to get many bells and whistles without spending a fair bit more.

  • That's a perfectly reasonable list, the only change I would do is change the cooler to the Thermalright Peerless Assassin, I think it would be worth the extra ~26NZ$. If that breaks the budget, here's some alternative case options that should save enough money to make up for it while retaining similar design and features to the one you linked. I wouldn't try to save any more money on your other parts since that will affect performance (maybe not the motherboard but there's not much room for you to go cheaper there, or really with much other than the case)

  • I assume the $1000 budget doesn't include the new GPU you want to replace the 5700XT with. I believe the most VRAM for the buck is still the 7900XTX and it seems prices on those have been coming down in the last month or so, which helps.

    Since you mentioned the 7800X3D I used that as the basis for the build. Even that would be overkill for the 5700XT but it gives you options for the near future. The peripherals I just went for low cost basic-ish options.

    Jump

  • I think when "drinks" are used as a unit, the size varies based on what is being consumed. Like, a bottle of beer, a glass of wine, or a shot glass of whiskey would each be "1 drink". Again, I could be totally wrong about all this, I don't drink alcohol.

  • Did the people reporting their heavy alcohol use know this was the definition it was being judged by, or did they just report the number of drinks they had? I don't even drink but that seems like a fairly low bar. 2 a day plus one bonus during the week is heavy use? I don't think many people would agree with that, but I could be wrong.
