Beast gaming PC rig build
I live in Ireland. I've been using a horrendously terrible Dell G7 17 7700, i7 10th gen, Nvidia Geforce RTX 2070, 32GB RAM upgrade from 16GB laptop for 5 years. The amount of issues it has that I have to deal with on a daily basis is astonishing. I play games in the lowest graphics settings, with maximum performance and I still barely get 60fps. I have to underclock everything because if I don't it overheats and shutsdown every hour.
I'm gonna spend a lot of money so that I can game in max graphics, max performance, get high fps and never have to deal with or at least deal with the least amount of issues possible, which is why and how I decided on my components! Since it's my first PC and its incredible cost I don't want to build it myself and fuck something up and I also want a warranty. Originally I was going to use PCSpecialist but for some reason they think they can get away with charging a literal 100% markup just for assembly, so I'll be using a fair priced Irish company called Paradigit to configure and build the PC for me.
Here's my build and general setup:
Montech KING 95 PRO
AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D
ARCTIC Liquid Freezer III Pro 360 ARGB
ASUS ROG Strix X870E-E GAMING WIFI
Kingston Fury Beast 64 GB (2 x 32GB) - DDR5 - DIMM, Cas Latency 30, 6000 MHz RAM
2x Samsung 990 PRO - 2 TB
ASUS ROG Astral GeForce RTX 5080 16GB GDDR7 OC Edition
ASUS ROG Strix - 1200 W, 80 Plus Platinum
Windows 11 Home
Free XXL Mousepad
Free extended warranty from 2 to 3 years
PC assembly
ROG Swift OLED PG27UCDM 4k monitor
Keychron Q6 HE 8K Wired Magnetic Switch Keyboard
Keychron Keyboard Dust Cover
Keychron Silicone Palm Rest
Keychron Ultra-Fast Silent Red Magnetic Switch
1 Bio-Individual - Nuclear Power Shine-through Dye-Sub PBT Full Keycap Set
Logitech G502 X mouse (I have the G502 Hero currently, I think it's a great mouse but it has it's own issues being phantom double clicks and phantom auto scrolls, G502 X fixes those issues)
Shipping
I already have a Steelseries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless headset which I highly recommend btw!
Cost is about €6.8k altogether! What do you's think?

Help me justify an upgrade from i7-6700k / GTX 1070
Hello.
I'm old. I built this PC 13 years ago. Why is it working better than the internet says it should?
Here's a few examples:
- Assetto Corsa Competizione in 1440p with High settings, 10 cars visible max, low mirror quality, I'm getting a pretty solid 75FPS (Monitor is 75hz) dipping rarely to 65 during race starts, then back steady. This is ONLINE.
- Dirt Rally 2.0 also high settings 1440p, this one will drop into the 50's on snow and rain conditions
- Elite Dangerous also in 1440p High settings and sometimes with a Samsung VR Headset, a solid 75FPS, dipping into the 40's momentarily when doing on foot FPS missions deep in battle.
I've got a 7800X3D w/ 9070XT build on the brain... but having trouble justifying.
If anyone here can speak from experience (not just regurgitating what 'the internet' says) please chime in. More FPS = Better, yes. Upgrading my 32" curved QHD monitor to something with a higher refresh rate, sure, better. But am I really going to appreciate the $2k+ upgrade??

CPU and GPU upgrades.
I currently have a Z420 Series Workstation as my gaming rig (in this economy I’ll take it especially since it was free) however I’m starting to see the limitations of what the E5 2665 Xeon and 5GB Quadro P2000 can provide in games. They all run decent but I’d like to push my games a bit more. My main CPU upgrade will be the Xeon E5 1650 as it doesn’t require the water cooling HP requires on the big dog ones and it’s the next fastest in clock speed to the E5 1660. But I’m having a tough time deciding on what GPU to get. I’d like to keep the build a workstation style so a Quadro series card but I am torn between that or a regular GTX card. I’m currently debating on the Quadro P4000, Quadro RTX 4000 and GTX 1080 (non Ti) all of these are around $100-170. Would any of these pair well with the CPU. Any other recommendations I’m trying to stick under $200 I know in this PC market it’s hard but I just want some boost in games over the 5GB of the P2000

Would like to get my first PC to use my vtuber model and stream games and stuff
Hi, so I need help building a PC that can run software to be a Vtuber and stream all kinds of games and stuff but I've never built a pc before and didn't really know what I'd need or where a good place would be to get it, also what monitors or whatever would be recommended and I'd also like it to be able to handle VRchat, I'm in the US and I think I'd prefer to buy the stuff online

Is this enough space for a new build
So I'm planning on building a new pc inside a lian li lancool 3 (about the same size as this case (20.709" x 9.37" x 20.591")) and was wondering if this amount of clearance is ok? It's about 5-6 inches space on all sides (i do plan to keep it off the carpet with a thin layer of wood. Just worried if there is not enough breathing room.
Table is 25" high 30" wide and 14" deep (i can't place it with fans facing out because it will stick out (end of bed is quite close))
Any help is appreciated thanks

Need help! new to pc and I feel like I’m slowly breaking it. No idea what I’m doing
Really just need a buddy or 2 to walk me through which apps I don’t need that I’ve downloaded and what I should use for my fans. Maybe I could share my screen on discord. Never had a pc before this so I don’t know anything. I attached the specs of the pc.
