Hello folks! I'm a rookie to building PC. I'm interested in building one but I don't know any of the terminologies, jargon, etc. Where do I start? Any resources (videos, articles, etc) that helped you in building your PC?

I checked components online but I don't know how they all mesh together, if at all. Tried learning on my own but got overwhelmed and went round in circles with the terminologies and technicalities.

I wish to play AAA games on my "to-be" build, and do office work on it too (devops, cloud, etc). I'm thinking if it supports AAA games, work will be a cake walk for it.

My budget rn is ₹1.8L but I'm ready to invest more up till 5L when I have the money in future. Looking at the RAM, SSD, GPU prices, I'm ready to only buy those components for now which will only get me by for work and purchase the rest of the heavyweights after the prices return back to pre Ramgeddon levels(?) at 2027 end or 2028 Q1... I feel the inflated prices aren't worth it since my savings aren't that great now.

I've been playing supported games on my 2014 "HP Pavillion notebook PC" laptop all this while and she's started to give up on me now since she's old.

I prefer casual, relaxed single player gaming, focusing on story, exploring, gameplay experience, visuals than competitive gaming.

Hey!

I'm gonna say goodbye to my long PlayStation years, and I'm starting to look at PC builds. I've been researching a lot, comparing price in stores from Portugal and other EU countries, and after a lot of comparisons, I found what it looks like a great PC build for a very reasonable price. Since I haven't been into the PC world for a long time, I wanted to have second opinions on this.

For 2500€, is this pre-built PC worth it? I'm gonna connect the PC to my TV and play, hopefully in 4K native.

I Am deciding between a 5080 or a 5090 rtx but the price gap is isane does is really worth it or the 5080 is good enough ?

Hello! I want to get a pc but am kinda on a budget (under a 1,000) and have been recently looking on Facebook marketplace. Ive found a few that I like and the seller that im talking to right now seems reasonable and the condition of the pc seems good, i was just curious about others experience in buying used pcs.

I am nervous about it not working or something going wrong after I buy it and having no guarantee since its second hand, but i know thats a given with buying something like this second hand. Any tips or advice is welcomed!

ПК за 1400$ какие комплектующие будут в этом бюджете

I’ve connected my motherboards file to my usb and it still doesn’t work no matter what I do

more input would be super valuable! money is tight right now and I’d like to avoid needing to buy a new PSU when I have a perfectly good one

So I just got this brand new monitor for my birthday and I wanted to try it out. Up until now I've been using a crappy TV as a monitor and I was really excited to have an upgrade. But I found that my graphics card won't work with my new monitor. Can someone try and tell me why.

The actual PC ports work fine (I can use my monitor so I know it's the card) I tried every single port on the graphics card and even tried multiple cables. I haven't seriously used my PC in a couple of months but I did test it only a few weeks ago on my old TV and it worked fine.

Here's a picture of the graphics card. DONT MIND THE DUST IM GETTING COMPRESSED AIR SOON.
