The bundle deals at Micro Center are pretty good, just gotta make sure you pick the right one.

The 9070 XT is fine for this bundle, right i’m gonna try to get down to Micro Center soon just to build prices and see what I might be able to ask for from my parents and what I buy

Yeah it'll work, just keep in mind that performance wise the 9070XT would be between a 5060 and a 5070, but it's better than dropping a couple thousand for one of those.

What would you recommend?

And a 750w modular PSuwould be more than enough, right

I'd do an 850 watt, minimum, and the 9070XT simply for price due to the 5070 being another $300 to $500 more for similar performance.

If I get to Micro Center soon, I will post on here again and once I hopefully get all the parts around Christmas I’ll show the full build. Thanks for the help.
