Can't get a reply here? Try r/ComputerBuild

Hey everyone,

This sub has been growing a lot as of recently and we've noticed a lot of posts have been getting buried and unanswered. There is a lot of noise due to how much it has grown.

I have created r/ComputerBuild as an alternative.

So please kindly try cross posting there to get it off the ground.

I will be helping users daily and also building a mod team/looking for moderators to help.

Thanks!

Looking for a Mini-ITX PC

• Upvotes

Basically the title.

I already have built custom PC's of my own before, rocking since a couple of years a RTX 4080 and an Intel I9-13900k with water cooling. Thing is I rock a glass case and its big and unwieldy, which makes it a nightmare if I want to join my friends for our lan-parties we regularly do with the whole setup of PC, Monitor and so on. Makes it also impossible for my new job I started where I gotta travel a lot.

So I've been looking in Laptops/Mini-ITX and so on, be it prebuild or self assembly. Thing is between all the different creators, sites and so on I am a bit lost what really is 'worth' to go for in a Mini build.

So I came here to ask all of you to maybe give me some pointers.

I got somewhat of a medicore Budget (for today's standards) I just want a PC that can handle all types of games (within reason for a mini-itx I suppose) Can be upwards of 5000€.

First Pc Build for 1080p Gaming/Editing

• Upvotes

I'm thinking of building a pc, mostly for gaming and editing and I'm someone who has never experienced even proper 720p pc gaming. So I think a 1080p build will me more than enough for me.

For processor, I'm thinking of Ryzen 5 5600X, for Gpu maybe 3050 8 GB, as nvidia has slight upper hand in editing ( correct me if I'm wrong ) 2 Ddr4 ram sticks 16GB each ( 3200MHz ) 1Tb Ssd and I'm not sure about mother board or power supply.

Please help me out guys, Thanks.

Looking to upgrade my nine year old PC.

• Upvotes

I've been debating this for a while but I think I need to do this before prices get even worse. My current PC basically can't play any high-end game released in the last seven years. So there are lots of AAA games I want to play (Cyberpunk 2077, Marvel Rivals, etc.), but that would set my PC on fire. I am based in the UK and my budget is around £2500, £3000 at the most.

My peripherals all work fine, so I can keep those. Are there any other parts I can keep, or should I just overhaul the entire thing?

CPU: Intel Core i5-6600K 3.5 GHz Quad-Core Processor

Cooler: be quiet! Pure Rock Slim 35.14 CFM CPU Cooler

Motherboard: Asus STRIX Z270F ATX LGA1151 Motherboard

RAM: G.Skill NT 8 GB DDR4-2133 CL15 Memory

GPU: EVGA GAMING GeForce GTX 1060 6GB 6 GB Video Card

Case: Corsair Carbide Series 270R ATX Mid Tower Case

Thank you for your help.

Hi, I'm planning a gaming and game development PC with a €2,200 budget including a 24.5" 240Hz monitor. I live in Luxembourg and would prefer shops that ship here.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 9600X

GPU: XFX Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB

Motherboard: MSI B650 Gaming Plus WiFi

RAM: 32GB DDR5-6000

SSD: Crucial P310 2TB NVMe

Cooler: Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120 SE

PSU: Corsair RM750e (2025) 750W

Case: Fractal Design Pop 2 Air Black Solid

Are these parts compatible and is this a coherent build for gaming, Unity and Unreal Engine? Any recommendations for cheaper EU stores that ship to Luxembourg?

PC ADVICE pls [discussion]

1 Upvotes

I’ve been wanting a pc for years now but I don’t really know what to get, prebuilt or spend hours learning how to build. I also want to know what kind of pc to get in terms of graphics and all that jazz. I mainly want to use a pc for story games that require pretty good graphics like tlou and rdr2. Any advice would be amazing! I know literally nothing lol… (ps: my budget is probably 3000 max since I don’t want to be spending 5 bands on a pc and I live in Canada.) :)))

My preferred range in 2-3k but I can go up to 4k for it max

For more background I make YouTube videos and I edit and mix songs so I want it to be able to do that. thank you
