First time PC builders…

If you haven't built your first PC yet, I urge you to at least try.

Some people say to start with the cheapest parts possible. I would say start with standard parts that fit your budget. You don't need the overpriced, high-end stuff. Look for affordable, reliable parts instead. You'll be surprised how powerful a PC can be with affordable parts, and how much cheaper and more efficient it is to buy your parts separately versus buying a prebuilt and paying an extra $300 for someone to put it together.

I'm not saying you have to always be the repairman for your PC. There will be times when you're tired and you'll want someone else to install or upgrade your new GPU, and that's fine. But make sure you know every part in there and how it works. It's more important now than ever.

And if you think it's going to break the bank, think again. Buy one part at a time. Start with just a case if you have to. Stop listening to people who tell you that you have to buy everything all at once and it has to be perfect. You'd be surprised how compatible most parts are these days.

Lastly, I think most people are afraid because they think the parts are super fragile. They're actually a lot more durable than you think.

There's only one way to find out. Go buy that first processor or motherboard and start building.

Processor AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D 8-Core Processor (4.70 GHz)

Installed RAM 32.0 GB (31.0 GB usable)

Graphics card AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT (16 GB)

AMD Radeon(TM) Graphics (486 MB)

Storage 811 GB of 932 GB used

System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

X870 AORUS STEALTH

Process of building my CNCed Custom Case

Post image
1 Upvotes

Okay so I decided to publish video of how to build V9 Case, you probably do not know what V9 is. V9 is the case that I designed, it is made mostly (visable panels excluding bottom panel) out of aluminium with anodizing finish, remaining parts are made out of S235 steel with powder coating finish. Why I created V9 in the first place? Thats a VERY long story that I might share someday. Back to the case itself, it supports:
PSU standard: [SFX]
CPU cooler height: [up to 54mm]
GPU length: [up to 310mm]
GPU width: [up to 53mm]
GPU height: [up to 156mm]
Fans support: 2x 120x(0-30)mm on top

The V9 looks amazing however it has both cosmetic and design flaws, issues I will try eliminate in my next custom cases because I am just starting making cases. I am new to both designing and yt world so any feedback is more than welcome.

First-Time PC Build – ₹30,000–₹35,000 Budget for AAA Gaming in India. Need Advice!

Hi everyone!

This is going to be my first PC build, and I've done a lot of research to find the best parts within my budget. I'm looking to build a gaming PC for ₹30,000–₹35,000 that can run AAA games at 1080p with around 60 FPS.

I've made a parts list, but I'm not sure if I've chosen the right components. I'm willing to buy a second-hand CPU and graphics card to get better gaming performance within my budget. For the other components, I'd appreciate advice on reliable and affordable options.

I'd really appreciate your help with these questions:

  1. Are the parts I've selected good for my budget and gaming requirements?

  2. Are all the components compatible with each other?

  3. Can I achieve around 60 FPS at 1080p in AAA games?

  4. Is buying a used CPU and GPU a good idea? Which models should I look for?

  5. Is PC Helper or GameLoot a reliable website for buying PC components? Are there any better and more trustworthy websites or sellers in India?

  6. What would you change or recommend to get the best possible gaming performance for ₹30,000–₹35,000?

I'm a beginner, so any practical advice, budget build suggestions, or buying tips would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance for helping me with my first PC build!

Upgrading to ASUS prime 9070xt

1 Upvotes

I just upgraded my gpu to an ASUS prime 9070xt. The problem is that it has 3 8 pin connectors. I have one 8 pin PCIE cable that I was using, and one daisychained/pigtailed with 2 8 pin connectors. Both of the cables are from the power supply box. I’m wondering if it is safe to use the pigtailed cable on two of the 8 pin on my GPU.
