I recently have sold my Xbox Series X and I'm looking to build my first budget PC I need a CPU which has 8 core or similar just similar to my Xbox series X for my already purchased Zotac GeForce 3060 ti 8GB GPU (in second hand market). Budget is 10-12k for the CPU.

Usage - Mostly gaming, and browsing/ watching movies.
I'm going to play Competitive shooters and fewer AAA games (less demanding) and would want 60fps minimum and my display is 4k 55"OLED TV if that info helps in anyway?!

Few questions as well-
1)Could you might as well suggest a Motherboard with Wifi and BT and budget also is 10-12k ?
2)RAM am planning it to be 16gb but do I need DDR5 so I don't have to upgrade later? Or DDR4 (8gb *2) should do?
 
Your best bet would be a Ryzen 7 5700 (selling for 13k). If you can extend your budget a bit, the 5700x would be miles better. 5700x's dont come with a cooler, so you might have to fork over a bit more to get the complete package. For either CPU, DDR4 is the only usable RAM standard.
 
Dude you just have RTX 3060ti and planing to buy cpu+mobo combo and ram? Do u have cabinet, PSU, SSD?
Get this for gaming, but you can save a lot if u go with 12400f CPU. Get a cheaper cabinet if u don't want to spend much on it. Also can add another 16gb stick later, right for 1080p gaming is enough. Also get a cooler master CPU air cooler.

This was my original build for somewhat AM4 (old 3060ti card from my cousin) instead of AM5 what you've sent..

Ignore the 6600 AMD GPU though. But I guess its subject to changes as am also looking for AM5 build as well with 7700 XT

Something like this

so you would be playing games at 4k or 2k then as your display being 4k 55 inch TV. just check for games what fps it puts out for games u will be playing at 2k and 4k. it's quite easy to youtube this and u will have most of your answers

Ya basically started off with a 1080p build with 3060ti and since people have kept saying that 1080p upscaled on 4k TV would look very fuzzy/blurry mostly because its VRAM is only 8GB. I didnt wanted to take chances and started working on 1440p 60fps build. But yes the budget have been increased as well due to this. I already have a OG PS5 so AAA games won't matter much but I need a consistent 60fps. But If i see a good sale of a heavy demanding AAA game like Alan Wake 2 on steam instead of PS store, I might purchase it to play on this PC.

Do you think 6700XT would do or 7600 XT 12gb would be good enough for 1440p 60 fps ? (when budget is a constraint as im unable to find any 6600XT in second hand market with some warranty)
