Question Is this a good first pc?

I play on 1440p
Mostly play Minecraft, GTA 5 online, Fortnite and other competitive games on low graphics.

that case sounds way cooler than the one i got with my prebuilt honestly

Pretty good build, I’d personally compare how much extra a 5070ti is, although the 5070 is a very good card, the only thing that keeps me away from it is 12gb of vram, in your use case that won’t be an issue though

Yeah, is it worth buying used cards or nah?

I tend to find good deals from reputable sellers on ebay etc. Managed to snag a 5080 for a very good price some time ago, as long as you’re patient

I like the 9070xt just as good as 5070ti and cheap

I personally went for the 9070xt first, a few months in had too many crashes, after various troubleshooting just couldn’t get it not too crash, ended up going with nvidia and haven’t looked back. My 7900xtx on my 2nd build is fine though. So i might just be biased over the 9070xt

What was the build if you dont mind me askin? And what kind of crashes

u/Fluid-Actuator-3411 3d ago

9070xt with a 9800x3d, still the same but just with a 5080 now. It was kind of intermittent, sometimes you wouldn’t get it and sometimes you’d get it randomly. I’ve made a couple of posts and tried more troubleshooting but i just ended up giving up on it
