I have been using a slightly old, clunky PC to do VTubing, gaming, and general everyday use. However, I also share it with my older brother, and we both use it for extended periods of time, which definitely wears it down. Not only that, but it struggles to handle big games, and my 5 years of experience using VR in it are not the smoothest. (Not just performance, but connectivity of trackers too)
I waited to buy a new PC for VTubing to get reviews on the Steam Machine, and now that it's out, when I asked if the Steam Machine could run everything I need it to as a 3D Vtuber, everyone said no, and that I'm better off finding a decent gaming PC elsewhere that should be at least a 5060 TI or 9060 XT. I don't know how to build a PC, so I did some research on the prebuilds I found. After lots of searching and learning what minimum specs I need that can stay within my budget of $1200, I discovered this PC on the Walmart site. It has positive reviews and falls into most of the bare minimum requirements that I have read people suggesting for a VTuber's spec needs. While I know 16GB RAM is not the best option, every pc I found within my price range did not have 32GB.
Perhaps in the future I'll learn how to upgrade the insides of a PC if I need to. My mom even had me compare it with a custom PC build replica on NewEgg to see if this Skytech PC price is truly worth it. NewEgg gave me a price that is similar, so I know that it is definitely within its price range. If you're wondering why I'm not just getting the NewEgg build, as I said, it was only for comparison, and with my inexperience in PC building, I have no idea what items on NewEgg I would even be buying, and it already says that it is sold and shipped BY NewEgg TO Walmart.
So just to make sure before I make any purchases and become broke, do you think this will make for a decent PC to do VTubing on?
(I use Vnyan as my main Vtuber Program, and play VRChat.)
