Bought my first bike since high school less than a month ago, finished my first 40k today!

Probably Strava guesstimated that calorie count. If it's being calculated out of heart rate for example, it's not quite accurate. If it's calculated out of distance and their weight, might also be off.

I see cadence but no power meter so I wouldn't count on those calories being correct.

I'm 155lbs and in about 2 hours at 17mph it was a little over 800 calories on Zwift using the trainer.

Gotcha, thank you for additional context.

What I read, DLSS 3.0 is like magic and running 1440p games, you'd possibly benefit from it if you stick to Nvidia. I don't know how much $40 means to your budget but I would invest in that solely because of that. THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH AMD GPUs, buy it's something I'd consider.

If I was building today, I'd certainly go DDR5 as you are.

I can't comment on stock cooler as I also value quiet operations because it's annoying when I'm gaming next to a jet engine, so even though the cooler might be overkill, I want them quiet. I haven't tested stock cooler but a nice Noctua was in my budget.

Same with my case, Be Quiet! 500DX but again, because I want as silent as possible while gaming.

You reached the end
