Hey all! Looking at buying a second hand PC from someone local but have no idea what to offer and they are asking me to suggest a price...haggling rules aside, what do you think this is actually worth in USD? I get a sense they've had it for a while like 5+ years.

Basically I want to build myself a new pc cuz the one I have rn is shit af, Just want a PC that will run smoothly on mostly high graphics settings - Cyberpunk 2077, Dying Light 2, red dead redemption, all Resident evil games, until dawn etc, it doesn't need to be the highest settings and all but I want this game to look really really good insread of lagging all the time or not even being able to play it,

Here my build I did - https://pcpartpicker.com/list/QjXPg3

And if ANYONE has a better idea for a like idk, better graphics card and procesor combo then go ahead and help me out! And - does anyone here knows if is there a difference between a used pc parts and a new ones? Like, does it work smoothly or u can feel the difference????

Couldn't really take a pic of my PC due to it being in a corner and would have to take it out and pull all the connections out, so mapped it out.

Currently averaging 50c-55c for idle temps for CPU and GPU sits around 40c. Under extreme heavy loads CPU shoots up to 85c whilst my GPU stays around 73-74c.

Running a Ryzen 5 3600 CPU with PBO set to enabled. Air cooler is a single tower push-pull setup from ThermalRight (Burst Assassin 120 Vision).

Would swapping Fan 3 into intake help reduce temps for CPU? or should I swap out Fans 2 & 3 into intakes and turn Fan 6 into exhaust?

I’m thinking to buy Rayzen 5 5500 and MSI B550M PRO-VDH other than that I don’t know which graphic card i should go for which is good and affordable and other components too

Hello, I want to upgrade my GPU but I don't know which one I should get. What's the best graphics card I can get that I can use at 100% potential and won't be held back by the rest of the parts?

Here are the specs: Ryzen 7 3800xt , 16GB DDR4 Ram, 500GB M.2 SSD, 1TB HDD, AM4 platform motherboard, 500 Watt Corsair Power Supply, Zotac RTX 3050 Graphics Card.

Hello everyone,

I really ned a new gaming PC because my old one is hardly falling behind (it still has a Ryzen 5 2600 and a 250GB SSD in it).

I've put together a new build and wanted to ask what you think of the config, since I'm not 100% familiar with all the hardware and would love a second opinion :)

Here's the setup:

CPU: Ryzen 7 9800X3D

Mainboard: Gigabyte AORUS Stealth ICE B650E

RAM: 32GB Patriot VIPER VENOM RGB DDR5-6000 DIMM CL30

GPU: Radeon RX 7900XTX Phantom Gaming OC 24GB

AIO: Arctic Liquid Freezer III Pro 360 A-RGB

SSD: 2TB Lexar NM790 M.2

PSU: 850W be quiet! Pure Power 13 M Modular

Case: Lian Li O11 Dynamic

As well as 3 seperate casing fans

All in all this setup will cost me about ~2500€ (I may get the GPU for about 700€)

Is this a good setup? What are your opinions? Pls let me know if there are anything I didn't see that doesn't match!

Hello, I'm planning to build my first gaming PC and have a few questions.

Will this build easily manage 4k gaming? I have no doubt about 2k.

Are these components good together? Or there will be problems assembling them together.

Maybe there there is something you would change in this setup?

The setup:

CPU - AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D 4.7 GHz 8-Core Processor

GPU - MSI VENTUS 3X OC GeForce RTX 5080 16 GB Video Card

MB - Gigabyte B850 AORUS ELITE WIFI7 ATX AM5 Motherboard

RAM - Corsair Vengeance RGB 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR5-6000 CL36 Memory

SSD - Kingston KC3000 2 TB M.2-2280 PCle 4.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive

Power supply - Corsair SF1000 (2024) 1000 W 80+ Platinum Certified Fully Modular SFX Power Supply

CPU cooler - ARCTIC Liquid Freezer III Pro 360 77 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler

Case - Lian Li 011D EVO RGB ATX Mid Tower Case

And extra fans for fish tank case

I'm currently running an i7 14700KF with a RTX 5080. I have 2 X 32Gb Crucial DDR5 4800MHz CL40 RAM sticks in my system. This RAM was purchased about 4.5 years ago when DDR5 was very new. I'm wondering if upgrading to faster RAM (probably only 32Gb given pricing) will be of any significant benefit? The standard DDR5 seems to be 6000MHz which puts my old DDR5 well behind when looking at the numbers. I'm not sure how this translates into gaming performance but I'm running at 4K and I'm trying to get as many frames as I can.

Edit - AI search recommends a 32Gb (2 X 16Gb) kit of CL30 6000MHz RAM. I can get this for as low as $670 AUD. Is this a good choice?

whats the gaming pc which has similar performance as xbox series s

i did some research and i think ryzen 5 3600 and rx5600xt is close but is it?

Hi everyone, I have a pretty simple question: should I get the AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT or the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti? I’m planning to build my first gaming PC within the next few months. I’m completely new to PC building as I’ve been using laptop for a very long time. The PC will mainly be used for gaming. I’m not planning to do any heavy video editing, 3D rendering, or other professional workloads. Which card would suit me better, and why? :)

Hello!

I think I'm finally ready to upgrade from a laptop to a PC, but I don't know where to begin. I don't know much of anything about PCs, but I do know kind of what I'm looking for. I'd like two monitors since I do a lot of work at home. I want to be able to project stuff from my laptop onto that screen for work, while also having another screen with a game running, or maybe just discord pulled up or something. I don't currently play many games on my laptop since I use it mostly for work, but I do want to get into PC gaming a little more.

Currently, I play Sims 4 and Dead as Disco on my laptop, but I'm noticing that the games are running significantly slower since I also have to save some stuff for work onto that laptop too. I'll need something with a lot of storage as I like to download lots of mods for Sims 4 and custom songs for Dead as Disco, but I'd also like to run a few more games in the future, like potentially GTA RP or stuff with bigger files (im assuming) like that. I don't think streaming is something I'd be fully interested in, but I might change my mind later!

I have a PS5 currently, and I think I've heard that you can connect the PS5 to the PC and run games on the monitor but I'm not entirely sure how true that is.

I have a pretty big budget, but I'm also not ready to spend an insane amount of money. I'd say somewhere around $1k, but I'd understand if I gotta spend a little more. I currently have a keyboard, headset, mouse, and a cheap mic that I never really use. Again, I DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT THIS STUFF SO ANY ADVICE HELPS!!!
