ABOUT THIS BUILD
An older RTX 4060 can still be worth comparing when the local price or parts you already own make the difference. This Ryzen 5 7600 list uses 32 GB DDR5 and a conventional air-cooled tower. Check whether the 1 TB SSD is enough for your library before paying for its model name; compare the older GPU with newer options at the actual delivered price. Budget is a planning target, not a retailer quote. Image is an illustration.

Our take
Give every component a job, then spend where it changes the experience.
CPU cores6 cores
System memory32 GB
Dedicated video memory8 GB
CS2 · Windows memory requirements
Both recorded memory capacities meet the CS2 Windows minimum. Other requirements remain unchecked.
What you have
GeForce RTX 4060 VENTUS 2X BLACK 8G OC is your selected graphics card. Its 8 GB memory is capacity, not a speed score.
What decides the result
These two checks use Valve’s Windows minimum requirements. They do not establish frame rate, preferred settings or support for another game.
Capacity references only · meeting these is not a performance score or full application approval.

Still to verify for CS2
Check the operating system and CPU against Valve’s Windows requirements; a core count alone cannot verify the processor.
Verify DirectX 11 and Shader Model 5.0 support for the exact GPU and installed driver. Shared system memory does not verify the video-memory requirement.
Confirm at least 85 GB of free storage on the installation drive. The capacity printed on an SSD is not its available space.
This changes the comparison advice below. Valve’s minimum memory requirements stay the same.
The next move
For 1440p, compare CS2 tests at 2560 × 1440 with the same game version and preset. Check average frame rate and 1% lows against your monitor’s refresh rate.
An older-generation AM5 and RTX 4060 configuration kept as an alternative for local price comparison or reuse of already-owned parts.
Why these components are together
The Ryzen 5 7600 and B650 board provide AM5, while the exact RTX 4060 card supplies discrete graphics. Compare the older GPU's actual local price and game behavior with the newer alternatives in the library.
The 32 GB DDR5 kit is paired with a 1 TB 990 PRO. A premium SSD model name does not answer whether 1 TB is sufficient for your files and applications.
The AK400, 4000D AIRFLOW and A650BN keep the build on conventional tower air cooling and a selected 650 W PSU.
Tradeoffs and checks before ordering
Do not pay an old-stock premium simply to preserve this example list.
The exact memory profile and CPU BIOS support still need confirmation.
The 8 GB graphics memory capacity should be evaluated against the workload rather than the name Everyday.
What to change first
Compare a larger SSD against a GPU replacement using the symptom you want to fix. Reuse compatible parts when doing so helps the actual total, but recheck power and physical fit for any changed card.
Document checks for this starter (English)
Manufacturer documents, checked against the original parts list. These are not assembly or benchmark results.
32 GB capacity does not depend on enabling EXPO
Document finding
CORSAIR CMK32GX5M2B6000Z30
The kit is 2 x 16 GB; its 6000 MT/s EXPO setting is separate from the 4800 SPD speed.
Build decision: Keep the memory capacity estimate at 32 GB even before EXPO. Validate the profile only after a stable default boot.
Still to check: No claim is made that every physical kit revision reaches 6000 MT/s with this CPU and firmware.
This is an editorial parts-list explanation. The planning target is not a current retailer total, and this configuration has not been benchmarked by RigAtlas.
