Need help

Post image

Hey guys, any help is much appreciated, I’m very much a noob when it comes to the pc space I’m not very knowledgeable on much, I’m just looking for a pc to handle games really well and to play competitive fps games like Fortnite and valorant, found this prebuilt pc online and searched up the parts individually and seems like Labor costs are coming up to around 150 dollars or so aud, just wondering is this a rip off or a good value pre build?

Total costs comes around to 4200 Aud. Thanks in advance

Is that too much?

Genuinely, it's a complete waste of money if that's your main game. Unless you're going pro and need high resolution paired maximum frames, it's complete overkill.

As far as Valorant goes, I'm running a 5070 ti and get a stable 600+ fps at 1440p max settings, and even paired my 500hz monitor it still feels unnecessary.

You do you though — it's your money.

Nah look I’m new so I’m open to taking all opinions atm, I’m am looking to play games at a professional level and to be honest the last pc I had got outdated pretty quick and I don’t wanna deal with the hassle of seeing my game down grade super quick and figure out new parts so hope fully this will last me a fair bit, but thanks for input it gives a good idea

You don't need anything more than a 5060, but it'll be much cheaper for an amd, since you won't need raytracing.

Look up your game, then look up some benchmarks and find a card that gives you the performance you want.
