    Dear elakiri friends, can you please check the below specs and give me some recommendations. Not a hardcore gamer.but better the specs are future proof.

    AMD Ryzen 5 4500 Six core CPU
    Gigabyte X570S UD Atx
    32GB DDR4 3200(1*32)
    12GB RX 6750XT GPU

    1TB Samsung 980 Pro PCIe NVMe SSD
    Corsair 650W Power supply
    MSI 23.8 Pro MP241X IPS monitor
    Asus Xonar SE 5.1 Sound card

    Can you see any bottleneck in the above config?

    Please give me your opinions.

    Thanks

    umba ratada inne naththan importing..?
    monawatada use karanne, external sound card ekak balapan oyta quality ewa thiyanawa..
    UK inne machan. Creative Audigy thinna eth Sound normal thibbama athi. Logitech budget speakers gannawa wenama.
    Gaming 1440p wage thibbama athi.

    Too much neh. I'd say use a cheaper board b550 or so. Ah with monitor neh? How much is the monitor 200£? But still too much i guess.
    Cannot use the b550 as I need 3 PCI-e slots.

    12GB AMD RADEON™ RX 6750 XT - HDMI, DP - DX® 12

    ASUS Xonar SE 5.1-Channel Gaming Audio Card

    WIRELESS INTEL® Wi-Fi 6E AX210 2,400Mbps/5GHz, 300Mbps/2.4GHz PCI-E CARD + BT 5.0

    Good mcn, but if you're looking to play at 1440p not good. this is FHD right? Otherwise this is a good monitor.
    think your cpu is not a good one too. Here check this this is a ideal one for you just 1100£ wo sound card. I built one recently performance equivalent to this system but w intel 12400 n 3070.

    Recommend me a 1440p monitor pls. Is 23' a good size for gaming. If I go for a larger screen size will it affect the performance (FPS) of a game? High resolution/ pixelation issues??

    larger screen doesn't effect performance. only the amount of pixels does (1440p means 2560x1440 is the max resolution/amount of pixels it has, no matter the size of the screen ).
    27 inches is pefect for 1440p, no pixalation issue. very crisp. don't know about larger sizes than that.
