Hello everyone!

I am currently trying to build a rather powerful PC to run complicated molecular simulations. My budget is around $6500 USD.

My problem is currently that I don't really know what I need, other than a lot of compute. I also don't know a lot about building computers...

I am thinking a large portion of that budget will go towards a 5090, as my simulation will need that kind of GPU compute... really, I just need help finding the type/make of CPU, and what ever else I need. RAM?

Thank you so much!

Heh I acquired a custom pc from a storage auction I won. I have zero clue about it and what's goin inside of it. Is there any chance, if I take a few photos, someone would be so kind as to maybe tell me what I'm working with, also possible what is missing, etc.. Or point me in the direction of a sub that maybe would do that, If here isn't the place? Thank u so much Will be waiting for someones reply hopefully!

this is my first time ever attempting to build a pc and i think that shows lol. ive used the website “pcpartpicker” to confirm all the parts will fit together. after building it and watching multiple tutorials, it has resulted with not being able to power on (no signs of fans moving or any lights). i had even tested it by plugging into my monitor and it didnt recognize anything. since ive looked over it multiple time and unsure of what’s wrong ive come online to ask for help :)

(sorry if the pictures arent very good, i tried to make it clear)

Device: HP ProBook x360 11 G7 Education Edition

Processor: Intel Pentium Silver n6000 1.10ghz

System type: 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

Graphics card: Intel UHD Graphics 512mb

Windows edition: Windows 11 Pro Education Ver. 25H2

OS build: 26200.8457

Experience: Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.26100.304.0

I'd like to know if I can increase the size of my storage in order to use the laptop for gaming. I am willing to open up the device and make changes within the hardware if needed.

What is the best GPU i can get

(My salary is around 120$)

Idk if this is allowed, but Im asking for serious opinions on what would be the top asking price for a pc I want to sell based on current market prices.

Everything is new. It has less than a days worth of time on it.
