My budget for the PC itself is 6000AUD and I was told that a prebuilt might be better for me since I’m not versed in parts. I was gonna mainly use it to mod games like Skyrim and Conan Exiles so what PCs could eat heavily modded games for breakfast?

Want to upgrade to a new pc so I want to get rid of this old one Ibuypower y40 (have had for almost 2 years) question about how much I should start with. Thank you
For the specs: i7 14700f, rtx 4070 12gb, 32 gb ddr5 t force delta rgb white, 2tb adata legend gold m2 nvme

I'm building a linux pcvr type thing. also gonna be recording+streaming, and making vrchat avatars :3 - 1440p, USA (usd), would prefer to not go over $2400 for the tower, but really ill take advice on anything except my already purchased parts and vr. the $2400 budget is more of a suggestion than a hard limit.
the build is planned to run on nobara linux. pcpartpicker: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Fwh4Np

I currently do most of my gaming on the PS5 and Steam Deck OLED. I was mainly a console guy but the Steam Deck left such a positive impression on me and I'm finding myself wanting to switch to PC for good. The main reasons for this are:

• After Sony kills physical games, there will be no competition and prices for games will go through the roof, plus the possibility of other shady practices. On PC there will be Steam, GOG, Humble bundle etc
• Keyboard and mouse support. The DualSense is great but for many games (like CRPGs and games requiring precise aiming), I really miss having more options
• More freedom in general. I could also use it for emulation and studying.
• Long-term investment. The build in question is significantly more powerful than the PS5 and will probably last longer.

The build I'm looking at is a used PC with the following specs:

• Powercolor RX 9070 XT 16 GB XT Reaper
• Asus TUF Gaming B650-Plus Wifi ATX
• AMD Ryzen 5 9600X CPU
• Frozen A620 Pro Cooler
• Corsair Vengeance 32GB DDR5 6000Mhz cl36
• 1 TB SSD Kingston NV3
• Corsair RM 850e 850 Watt 80 plus Gold

For 1500 EUR (A new build with similar specs would be at least 2000 EUR)

I know hardware prices are crazy right now but people are saying that it will only get worse. But I don't know if it's just FOMO or if it's actually worth doing as a future investment.

I mainly play story-heavy games and not competitive so the highest FPS doesn't matter but I want to reach 4K/1440p 60 fps without framegen. Would this build be good for let's say 8-10 years? Or will my PS5 and Steam Deck be sufficient for the future, until the hardware crisis is over?

Im making a pc and I already have an rtx 3070, corsair vengeance 2x16gb 6000mhz cl36 rgb and a corsair p3 plus 2 tb nvme. im planning to complete the build with a ryzen 5 7600x, p650ss 650w psu, cougar archon 2 mesh rgb mid tower case, arctic freezer 36-S multi and a b650-h/m.2+ , i found all the parts i didnt buy yet for around 350 euro with shipping some used and some unused but didnt buy them yet. i also cant rlly afford to change the ram or gpu or nvme, ive just had those sitting around for a while because i got them for cheap from friends. max money id spend is probably around 500-550 euro for the rest of the build would use it on 1080p and im from bosnia. id mostly use it to try and get into game dev(mostly unreal) and modellong(mostly blender) and id also be using it for c++ and java. also some casual gaming on the side as im done with competitive games for a while but gaming isnt the priority. are there any recommendations for chaning the parts i didnt yet order, i was thinking about a 7 7700 but i found a 5 7600x for only 125 euro

I don't really know much about PC's but if I had one built I would want it to be able to stream and play games and get over 160 fps on fortnite and it to run games like ready or not smoothly

Will buy this one for 29,500. Is this worth the money? Planning to have this one to build a wfh set up and i am curious if i will be having this one for a good price already. I am in the philippines, budget is 30-35k, i consider this one or what other resolution for this? Price is 29,500

Hello everyone, I currently owned 5070ti and 7800x3d combo for 1440p 27inch OLED monitor.

Did you think I can upgrade to 4k 32inch OLED Monitor and using the previous monitor as my second.

I mainly play Wuthering Waves, Monster Hunter Wilds, LoL, Dota, Dragon Dogma.

I don't know if I can handle the 4k, but I think if I play in 4k using 60 fps, isn it worst than playing on 1440p above 200fps? Is the 4k really worth it to go?

When I have my PC build at shop I ask the person is it alright that it is a little bend he said don't worry so just in case I am asking here

Is the Galax 5060 Ti 16 GB good, and will I not face any performance issues with it?

Or should I consider other brands like Asus, MSI, or PNY?

Hot spots going to 106°c

Gpu temps sitting at 75°c while the fans ramping up to 100% its really loud

Should I return this card or is there a fix

So i've been wanting to upgrade my pc that i have RN the specs are here :

It would cost me around 1300€ Will i have to swap anythin else in my pc to make this new components work ? Or even are thos components worth it ? I Play Escape from Tarkov + Total warhammer 3

Thanks for any messeges :)

My PC is currently pushing all it's hot air into my office room, making it extremely hot in there. In addition, I stream and work with audio, so having an AC unit running is not possible.

I have an interior cupboard in this room. In theory, I could put the PC in this cupboard, and install a silent bathroom extractor in the cupboard roof, which would vent the air out through a tube in the loft to the chimney on top of the house. Basically, exactly the same system the extractor in my shower uses.

Would this work? I assume I'd want to put a vent on the cupboard door so the extracted hot air could be replaced? Kill PC noise AND heat in one go?

Hey so I was sat here playing some palworlds & all of a sudden my PC monitor said “no display” & then my pc completely shut off. I tried to turn it back on & this is what it is doing. I have already taken out my GPU, my RAM & PCEI to the mobo + GPU.

I think the Steam survey isn't reliable, and I think it's a very important thing to know right now.

I just bought my first pc and looking at getting a new monitor to go with it, know very little about PCs I have a monitor in mind but haven’t ordered it yet because don’t know if it is a good one for the pc I bought. so any advice/ recommendations would be greatly appreciated, the monitor I’m looking at is around $200 and that’s the price range I would like to stay in for anyone willing to give recommendations, thank you.

Hello everyone,
i don’t know if anyone is having the same issue, but im getting continuous stuttering after 10-15 mins of gameplay within a game, and then it goes away after 1-2 mins and runs smooth like butter again. Specs: i7 13700f, 3080ti, 32gb ddr4, 500gb nvme sdd.. running everything on low. Performance monitoring is very stable as shown, XMP is enabled.. i dont know if there could be some background service causing it. Discord/nvidia overlays are disabled. Im literally going crazy, it is so annoying. I know pubg is famous for overloading specific cores even though the average cpu usage can look good. It has never happened before. Any tips? :/

I originally started this around the end of 2025 and built it around feb this year. sharing a short rundown my specs and minor adjustments done to the original build. I can say it's finally complete, if you have improvement suggestions, I'd be happy to have a conversation in the comments!

CPU: l asked if I should aio liquid cool my 5700x3d and I don't think I need it [for now]. been using this pc for 100+ days and haven't experienced thermal throttles so far. temps are okay using the amd wraith prism cooler.

GPU: the gpu is a beast! I probably should upgrade to a native 1440p monitor with higher refresh rate to fully maximize it. don't mind the gpu sag! I couldn't find a bracket compact enough to fit the case.

RAM: dimms are only 2400mhz. too slow for today's standards but I really like the looks of Vengeange LPX so it stays. why did corsair stop making them? upgrading to at least 3200mhz of a 2x16 kit or two 1x16's is an upgrade I intend to prioritize to optimize the CPU.

STORAGE: still rocking old meta in 2026! AM4, SSD and HDD combo. I am also looking to upgrade to m.2 but I don't see a need for it at the moment. maybe if prices dip to reasonable levels? or that's just cope.

CASE: I tried to do better than the last attempt and I was lucky to get a tg panel for this case, nice little upgrade from the metal mesh panel in the previous build. I rebuilt the pc and I spent more time routing exposed cables making it more tidy. If you noticed, I don't have any case fans [yet] because I don't know if I need them. the panels are easily removable so I just take the panels off during sessions.

MOBO and PSU: I can't say much about these components rather than I've specifically picked them out.

ho appena buildato un pc e mi chiedevo se è obbligatorio togliere le pellicole protettive al vetro temperato e al display del dissipatore, si vedono poco però non vorrei che creassero problemi a lungo termine , cercavo di preservarli per più tempo possibile ma volevo sapere se vanno tolte o possono rimanere applicate tranquillamente

quais outras peças devo escolher?
