Hi,

I have the opportunity to purchase a open box return ASRock Z690 Aqua oc motherboard and a ASRock RX7900 XTX Aqua oc GPU. Both products are bundled and heavily discounted by my companies IT hardware supplier. I would be literally paying less then £1000 including the vat for these.

I know this is a good deal but am I losing anything in the way of performance not going for Z790 board or by not having a AMD CPU, do I lose any features from my GPU?

I’m just about to pull the trigger on my first PC upgrade in over a decade and I don’t want to make any mistakes.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
