Well what would you recommend? I want this to hold up for a while and be able to handle cs2.

its not a bad gpu and absolutely enough for cs2, but it's just stupid to not go team red in theses price ranges. for example the 6700 XT is comparable in price to your 3060 but on level of 3070 performance-wise

This is good build but you could do better if you keep an eye out on Ebay and FB marketplace. I got a mobo, CPU, RAM and CPU cooler bundle on ebay for 10th of the price as it would be to buy brand new. Haggled someone down to £500 for a 3090 too Buying new gives you peace of mind and warranty though, I know buying second hand isnt for everyone

Ty for the ebay/marketplace info; is there any parts you new you wanted brand new with warranty? I'd assume power supply is one of them.

To be honest not even PSU. I bought a new PSU to go in a build recently and sold my old PSU on ebay which worked perfectly. Just keep an eye out and you may save yourself like $40 . They aint too expensoive to buy new anyway though I would defo buy the monitor new, so if there was any issues with dead pixels I could return and replace.

I'm no expert but I think I chose a 11th gen processor with higher perfs because I didn't see the added value in the 12th/13th gens, an ASUS monitor bc I have a bad experience with Acer and 512 GB SSD

pcpartpicker.com/list/MbKXTn I would chose these parts if I were you. You would get around 35-45% more performance with the rx 6750 xt then you would with the 3060. You also don't need to buy a cpu cooler, since you get one with the cpu.
