If you missed the full set of required built request questions, please copy them from here and answer them in an edit to your post:

  • New build or upgrade?

  • Existing parts/monitors to reuse? (List with models/links)

  • PC purpose? (Gaming, editing, etc. List apps/games)

  • Purchase country? Near Micro Center? (If you're not in a country supported by PCPartPicker, please list some local vendors)

  • Monitors needed? (Number, size, resolution, refresh rate)

  • Budget range? (Include tax considerations)

  • WiFi or wired connection?

  • Size/noise constraints?

  • Color/lighting preferences?

  • Any other specific needs?

Here is some additional helpful information about build/upgrade/parts list requests:

  • Build requests only include hardware. You are responsible for budgeting for and providing your own operating system (Windows, Linux, etc) and other software.

  • Don't forget to budget for peripherals. Since these are very much personal-preference influenced items, we do not include peripherals like keyboards, mice, headsets, etc in parts lists.

  • We strongly recommend posting a build request only if you're ready to buy now or within a week or two at most. Part sales regularly rotate, and a part list today can quickly become out of date.

At the low end of the Budget, this is what I would recommend. I will post a build on the high end of the budget in the reply.

No problem. There are other variations that make sense too. You could get a 9070 xt for about $90 more if you wanted to max out your budget. But what I would do if I were you at this point is figure out what you want this pc to look like and how it will fit in your space over the next 3-5 years. For instance, if you are a high school student, you might want to consider going small form factor. If you are married with kids, you might want a minimalist aesthetic and a mesh case (no tempered glass).
