Gaming PC

If you're not ready to put 100+ just take a ps4

it's like the worst time to build a PC
almost all budged GPUs scyrocketed in price to to meme farming

*1000

PC gaming sucks for anything right now besides entry-level and top-end GPUS cause of miners

>>383146782
this. at under $1000USD it's not worth it

>>383146782
I'm willing to put up the $1000, but not for some piece of crap with 8gb of ram and a shitty GPU. Just trying to get an idea of a good build. Something with potential to be upgraded in the future as well.

i built this 2 years back and it's still working just fine, paid around 1k uropoors for PC + everything else

And honestly, the big thing I know nothing about is CPU's and Motherboards. That's the biggest question I have.

>>383147173
forgot
only thing i would change is add more ram and and more ssds. i can play any game at near max at 60

Get a 1070 and a 7600K or a Ryzen 5
16gb of ram, mobo and case are not that important
Don't go cheap on the PSU, I have a Corsair RM750X and works fucking great, but people normally recommend EVGA
You'll probably want a SSD for games and programs, and a 2tb HDD, which goes for pretty cheap

>>383147173
Thank you

mobo is basically pick near the cheapest one for your cpu socket and get the overclockable version

>>383146668
while we are in this thread

what are the chances my about a year old 960 is going to be able to play destiny 2 with better than console settings?

>>383147531
depends how much they care about the pc port
and recently no one does

Here is what you do kiddo
>pick AM4 or z270 platform
>pick the best cpu you can get on said platform
>get a 1050ti from stock listings so you dont pay the good goy tax
>get a standard HDD so you dont pay the china man trickster tax
>fucking wait for crypto cycle crash
>enjoy cheap SSD/high end GPUs flooding the market

>>383147318
For the Ryzen5, which model would you recommend?

>>383146668
There is no shame in buying a prebuilt.

This one has
>i5-6600K
>16 GiB RAM
>GTX 1060
>2TB HDD
>Legal Windows 10 license
>DVD burner
>Mouse
>Keyboard
>Wlan + bluetooth card

and it's still only $949.

they are taking it serious enough to bring in a special dev team and hold back the release a few months after the console.

so hopefully thats a good sign/.

Never ever do this

Look at the sockets on the board, i/o and headers.
If it has the ones you use all the time or may need, buy it.
Most people have a fuck load of USB powered devices and need more than 2 fan headers. Cheap boards have very few usb/fan headers

Ah, I love coming to specialty boards. Nothing else makes me feel quite as dumb.

I don't really know much about AMD CPU's, so I'd recommend watching some benchmarks and doing a bit of research

>>383147240
For intel mobo's, the key difference between Z270 and, H270 and B250 boards is whether they support overclocking and multi-GPU setups (H270/B250's don't support either)

For AMD both X370 and B350 boards support overclocking, but B350 doesn't support multi-gpu.

The specific motherboard you should pick depends on exactly what features you want for your build, so to start work out if you want to crossfire/SLI or overclock so you can narrow your search down to a particular type of board and go from there.

The 1600 offers the best overall value and sometimes overclocks better than the 1600X.
