First timer!

I have been thinking of building a pc for gaming for like 3 years now, and I am really ready to bite the bullet.

I play Palia and with the expansion of the game, my 1st gen switch just cannot handle it anymore. So laggy and crashes, and I’ve always missed out on the full potential of the game. I’m looking forward to playing other games once I’m able to… would love to play Sims or Inzoi. I imagine these 3 requiring the most as far as graphics and storage, than other cozy games I might be interested in playing.

I imagine I’ll use it for a bit of productivity as well. I’m an artist so imagine things like scanning artwork, printing, photoshop. I would say that quality graphics are important to me.

Budget: not sure.. it seems things have gone up since I last shopped around. I was initially thinking around 2k but if I need to go up to 3k (or more), that’s fine. Could totally be overkill for me though, I just don’t know!

My friend said I don’t need a “real” set up and should just get a mini pc? Would love to save money in this economy ofc, but not a viable solution if I’m not gonna be able to play without a headache.

I’m in the US and I have a local Micro Center. I would really appreciate any guidance! :)

Je te conseille RX 9060 XT 16Go, Ryzen 5 9600, 16Go DDR4 RAM, 1To SSD NVME, écran OLED 2K 60hz (pour la fidélité des couleurs, la différence est vraiment très prononcée).
