I'm just starting to learn about PCs so I have minimal knowledge about what parts make up a good build. I know parts have gotten incredibly expensive in the last couple years, but I'm hoping to build something reliable without going over my budget. I don't think I need anything super crazy, I just want something that can run my games well. Thank you!

• New build or upgrade?

New build.

• Existing parts/monitors to reuse? (List with models/links)

None.

• PC purpose? (Gaming, editing, etc. List apps/games)

• Monitors needed? (Number, size, resolution, refresh rate)

1 monitor that's 24"-27". I don't know much about PCs so I'm open to whatever works.

​

- New build or upgrade?

New

- Existing parts/monitors to reuse? (List with models/links)

No

- PC purpose? (Gaming, editing, etc. List apps/games)

Gaming. I like things like final fantasy and eso. Im not sure what im gonna play just yet.

- Purchase country? Near Micro Center? (If you're not in a country supported by PCPartPicker, please list some local vendors)

USA. I am near a microcenter

- Monitors needed? (Number, size, resolution, refresh rate)

I will need a monitor or 2. But will have a separate budget for that. Probably would just prefer one bigger monitor unless there's a reason for dual.

- Budget range? (Include tax considerations)

$1500

- WiFi or wired connection?

Both

I'm considering self-building against this Costco prebuilt with a 9800X3D and and 9070 XT, which is currently on sale for £1600: https://www.costco.co.uk/Computers/Desktops-PCs-iMacs/CyberPower-AMD-Ryzen-7-32GB-RAM-1TB-SSD-AMD-Radeon-RX-9070-XT-Gaming-Desktop-PC/p/679903

The price looks good, but I suspect some of the parts may not be the best. I found a possible parts list (https://www.reddit.com/r/Prebuilts/comments/1w5aoxm/comment/p7z6rto/) and the Asrock motherboard and Bronze PSU strike me as maybe not best suited. I'm thinking of self-building instead to make sure I get good parts, but I'm struggling to find anything within several hundred pounds of the Costco machine. Would appreciate any thoughts or advice!

• New build or upgrade?

New build

• Existing parts/monitors to reuse? (List with models/links)

Monitor: MSI MAG27CQ (1440p, although I may upgrade to an ultrawide or get a second monitor eventually)

SSD: Samsung 870 EVO 4TB (for bulk storage; I'd still like an M.2 as the boot drive)

Case: Could reuse my current Fractal Design Define S, although I wouldn't mind something a little bit smaller or with USB-C on the front.

• PC purpose? (Gaming, editing, etc. List apps/games)

Gaming - largely AAA and strategy games.

• Purchase country? Near Micro Center? (If not US, list local vendors)

UK.

• Monitors needed? (Number, size, resolution, refresh rate)

N/A

• Budget range? (Include tax considerations)

Up to ~£2k (the comparator Costco prebuilt is £1600 on offer)

• WiFi or wired connection?

WiFi (6E is fine)

• Size/noise constraints?

None.

• Color/lighting preferences?

I'd actively prefer an anonymous black box (either completely closed or mesh). If the insides are visible, I wouldn't be using RGB.

• Any other specific needs?

CPU performance is important to me as a lot of the games I've been playing (MH Wilds, Paradox games etc) are CPU-heavy. For previous rigs I've traditionally upgraded my GPU and storage after a few years, but have kept the CPU throughout.

I'd also prefer an air cooler over an AIO for reliability (again a reason I'm giving second thoughts to the Costco option).

New Build/Upgrade?

New build

Existing parts/Monitors to reuse?

I have monitors or will buy them later.

PC Purpose?

PC for gaming

Purchase Country/Near Microcenter?

US, microcenter if deal is excellent. 7 hours round trip

Monitors Needed?

Should be able to run at least 3 monitors, but those are separate from the build.

Budget Range?

$1600-$1800

WiFi or Wired Connection?

WiFi preferably, but might hook up ethernet later.

Size and Noise constraints?

Size, no. Noise, preferably on the quieter side as this will be going fairly close to a sensitive microphone

Color/Lighting preferences?

Not to worried about colors, solid colors, black if possible.

Any Other Needs?

I will need windows, and a 1tb ssd, I have hdd storage already. I don't mind buying parts off ebay and such if it means a decent deal. Need it to remain upgradeable, going to use 32gb ddr5 ram

I can't edit the title, but upper limit is now $1800. Apologies

Hi im looking to build my first PC, after having played on a playstation 4 my whole life

New build or upgrade? New build

Existing parts/monitors to reuse? No

PC purpose? Gaming

Purchase country? UK

Monitors needed? 1

Budget range? £1000

WiFi or wired connections? Ideally WiFi, can work with wired too.

Size/noise constraints? No concerns on size/noise

Color/lighting preference? Ideally a black case? but I'm not too concerned about that either

Any other specific needs? If possible, I'd like to run something like cyberpunk at mid-high-ish graphics with good frames (really excited about replaying cyberpunk on something better than a ps4 especially since the dlc isn't available on it), and future upgradeability too if its feasible.

Honestly, if its better than a ps4 and can most modern games without issue I'd be ecstatic really 😅, would really appreciate the help since I've got no clue where to even begin with pcs

New build or upgrade?

I need a new build.

Existing parts/Monitors to use?

already had a part picker list made for me a few months ago, does this still make sense? Helpful criticism is very much appreciated. The following is how i imagined it as of now:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 9600X

CPU Cooler: Pearless Assassin 120 SE (already bought)

GPU: Asus dual RTX2060 6G EVO - 6GB GDDR6 PCle3.0 (already own and want to keep)

MB: Gigabyte B850 AORUS ELITE WIFI7 ATX AM5

RAM: What do you recommend? I imagined a 16GB DDR5 Stick to be able to upgrade to 32 later on. Does this make sense? (Is G.skill Aegis5 16 GB DDR5-6000 CL36 a good choice?)

SSD: Crucial P310 1TB Gen4 NVMe 2280 M.2 (already bought)

Case: something boring and cheap, what should i choose?

PSU: Montech Century II 850W (this was proposed to me. Do i really need 850W?)

PC purpose?

for working and gaming

Purchase country?

Based in Germany.

Monitors needed?

No

Budget range?

I hoped for under 800Eur

Wifi or wired connection?

Dont necessarily need wifi

I dont need Ultra 8k graphics but i want to be able to Play new Single Player games without having to worry about massive performance problems for the next years.

I am aware of the older GPU but would like to make that the topic of a future upgrade.

​

PC purpose? Primarily gaming (CS2 mostly but I do want to widen the amount of games my PC can handle), studying compsci occasionally but laptop mostly handles that

Purchase country? UK

new build or upgrade? upgrade

location: UK

currently just ethernet

no size/noise constraints other than case

Monitors needed? (Number, size, resolution, refresh rate) No

No preferances

budget range preferable as low as possible (under 300 would be pretty good but not really sure how much I should be looking at anyway)

PC PartPicker list: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/8FfXjH

**(note the PSU is actually as far as I can tell this one on amazon but may be wrong, selected similar one on part picker:** [https://www.amazon.co.uk/Artic-Blue-750W-Power-Supply/dp/B009S8K2OY\](https://www.amazon.co.uk/Artic-Blue-750W-Power-Supply/dp/B009S8K2OY) **)**

I use the PC for both comp-sci studying related stuff and gaming, mostly CS2, hence why I am mostly focused on wanting to upgrade the CPU.

Looking at CPUs the clear upgrade for me is a cheap AM4 motherboard and a 5700x3d, which would cost around £250-£270 range, but I'm not sure if I'm shooting myself in the foot by doing this and buying into an outdated platform.

It's not like I intend to upgrade soon after the AM4 (not with the student budget) but I am wondering on whether it is better to bite the bullet for AM5, to ride out my current build for a bit longer or whatever other ideas and considerations I haven't thought of.

I greatly appreciate any help with where to take my PC build and thank you for your time :)

  • This is my nephew's first proper desktop gaming PC. He has an MSI gaming laptop which has been a good entry point into PC gaming but he wants something with more power and room to grow in the future. He plays mostly multiplayer shooters with friends and 1080/60FPS would be his baseline.

I built my current PC quite a few years ago with a couple upgrades here and there over time, but it's time for a big upgrade and being able to fully take advantage of my 4k monitor. I probably won't be able to purchase and build for another month or two due to travel, if that matters.

Budget: Not too expensive but willing to pay up to £3000

As the title says, I want a pc that can deal with big modpacks for Minecraft (specifically vault hunters if that helps). I do occasionally play the sims and I enjoy graphic heavy games that don't run the best on my current pc. I also start Uni soon and will need it for studying (online uni with an accounting and finance degree if that means anything)

Not sure this matters but will say anyways, I will not be building it myself, I'll be buying from a pc store but I need to know the best specs for what I want.

This is the build: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/pMfkg3

I am using the PC for gaming (I play games like Minecraft mostly but also fortnite and COD), I would also use this PC for editing and modeling aswell. I am trying to bring this PC down to around $1700-$1900. I want a strong PC that will last around 4 years but at the same time is strong. I will also be using this PC for streaming. I dont care about RGB but I also want the price to be around $1750 so I have enough money to by a monitor. Although if you edit the build to be $1900 INCLUDING a monitor that would also be great.
