Performance Pick
All-AMD day, but this candidate has a platform mismatch. The Ryzen 5 7600X is AM5 and DDR5, yet the RTX 3050 is an older NVIDIA card that doesn't align with the all-AMD overlay intent. Additionally, the RTX 3050 severely underperforms the performance_pick tier's target of 1440p ultra at 144Hz — you're looking at 1080p high or 1440p medium to sustain that frame rate. The solver flagged this correctly but the candidate reached you. Recommend hold; wait for the next solver pass. The performance_pick tier at this budget should pair a Ryzen 7 7800X3D or 7700X with an RX 9080 XT class card to hit 1440p ultra 144Hz and 4K headroom. AM5 investment, DDR5-6000 CL30, 850W+ native ATX 3.1 PSU.
