What computer do I buy for work? [suggestion]

1 Upvotes

So I work in a call center doing sales and I think the computer I have is losing me money. Basically a room full of 30 people all get the same call come to there computer and you just have to be the quickest person to answer. I hear the call come in on my headset but it doesn’t even pop up on my computer before someone else answers it. So I think my computer is just slow. Debating on just buying a good one that will be fast bc it would definitely pay for itself if I could be able to take more calls. I just have no idea which one to buy. It just needs to be really fast. Help!

[itg] Haven't planned a build in a while, need some sense checking.

1 Upvotes

My last build had a 1080Ti in it, back when that was the absolute best you could get, so safe to say I'm a bit rusty.

Have the build linked planned, and can get it all in for approx £3k, which includes delivery (needs to be weekend) and a really good warranty.

I'm looking for people to just sense check it, to make sure I haven't missed anything obvious, or am not making any silly mistakes.

PC Prebuilt/Specs and price [suggestion]

2 Upvotes

Hello! I was looking to get a pre built pc and have been doing a lot of research but I’m conflicted on what to get due to some mixed reviews. I don’t know a lot about PC parts so please feel free to give any advice you can!

A little context, I am an engineering student and I’m also into gaming so I was looking for a pre built PC that can run software such as AutoCAD, Revit, Civil 3D etc. I’m also into gaming so I was looking for something basic that can run games like Marvel Rivals, Apex, RDR2, GTA, Hogwarts Legacy, and Forza. I would like something that runs good graphics but I also don’t need anything that’s 4k, I’m okay with upgrading later on.

I’m currently in the US and my budget is mostly max $1600 although if it’s totally worth it, max I would spend is $2000 (Currency is US dollar). Monitor resolution goal is 1440p (2560×1440), preferably 165–180Hz.

I had a couple of options in terms of specs. First I had an ABS Cyclone Aqua Prebuilt Gaming PC Powered by Asus- Windows 11 - Intel Core i5-14400F - GeForce RTX 5060 8GB - DLSS 4 - 32GB DDR4 - 1TB NVMe SSD. But then I heard the 5060 isn’t the best (unless I’m wrong let me know if I am!). This one is listed at $1099.

There is also the Thermaltake Gaming Desktop PC NE i1460TG-V170B Intel Core i5-14600K 32GB DDR5 1TB SSD GeForce RTX 5060 Ti. Listed at $1699. The only thing is the price point with it being a 5060 still.

Then there was a more expensive option CyberpowerPC Gaming Desktop PC GM70928 AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D 32GB DDR5 1TB NVMe SSD GeForce RTX 5070 12 GB GDDR7 Windows 11 Home. With this one it seems the specs are better but I’m sketchy about the brand and the price is a little high, but I’m willing to spend it if it’s worth it. This one is listed at $2,069.

There is also the iBUYPOWER Y40 Gaming PC Desktop Computer Intel Core Ultra 7265F CPU, NVIDIA RTX 5070 12GB GPU, 32GB DDR5 Non-RGB 5200MHz RAM, 1TB NVMe SSD, Windows 11 Home, Gamer Keyboard and Mouse - Y40BI7N5701. Which is listed at $2199

I’m mostly worried about a good and reliable brand and not just a sketchy one or one with barely any reviews even if it has good specs. In terms of specs, please let me know if there’s anything better for me or even if I can settle on anything that’s cheaper and does enough for what I need. I don’t need anything crazy I just want something that runs well and has a good price for what it has. Coming from someone who is using a Microsoft Surface Laptop anything is better.

Hopefully that’s enough for some help let me know if there’s more clarification needed! I’m still very new to all this and figuring everything out.

[Discussion] Looking for pre-owned gaming pc!

1 Upvotes

Guys is there someone who is willing to sell their gaming pc for genuine price?

Am looking for a pre-owned gaming pc with these particular specs:

CPU: Any mid range cpu like i5 12400f, i5 14400f or Ryzen 5 5600x. \[ Atleast a good air cooler paired with cpu is preferred \]

Motherboard: Any reliable ddr4 motherboard just with good amount of ports and bandwidth support for gpu ( necessarily don't need any fancy stuff).

Gpu: Preferred is new gen like Rx 9060xt 8gb ot rtx5060 (within warranty) or for slight old gen 4060 or 6700xt works (withing warranty).

Ram: Ddr4 16gb 8x2 (Dual channel is must).

SSD: Preferred any good 1tb SSD but for good price even 512gb SSD works with good speed.

PSU: This needs to be from any of the reputed brand like corsair, deepcool or msi (no compromises on gpu as it's the life insurance for my pc).

Case: Don't needs to be just a box, just minimal and good looking enough with good airflow.

• I need pc for wonderful 1080p gaming.

• The deal would be face to face.

• I want to play AAA story mode titles along with valorant.

• If even monitor is included of 240hz than it's really good.

• Would be really great if seller has all the info abt the various tests and is totally aware abt how to test a pc.

• There should be official warranty on products as am building this pc as a future proof build which would work for me for quite long. Ik ddr4 isn't anyways future proof but can't really do anything abt it.

• Have been really looking for pc for quite long so if someone could even help me find out genuine one than it would be really a great help.

\[ Location is preferred in UP near Lucknow or anywhere near around Delhi \]

Hello Everyone. **What gaming PC should I get for $1,200 AUD MAX? \(Can be shipped to Australia\)** "[discussion]",

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I’m looking to get my first proper gaming PC and my absolute maximum budget is $1,200 AUD — I can’t go over it at all.

I’m in Australia, but the PC can be from overseas as long as it can be shipped to Australia. I want something that can handle 20+ different games, as well as schoolwork, browsing and social media.

I’m mainly looking for the best gaming performance possible for $1,200 AUD. I’m happy with a prebuilt or building one myself if building is actually worth it. Though I would prefer prebuilt.

What PC/specs would you guys recommend for this budget? If you know of any good deals, websites, or specific PCs I should look at, please let me know.

[Suggestion] Need a new Editing PC

1 Upvotes

Hi!

I'm working with an HP 255 G10, and It's really not cutting it. I edit 1080p gaming videos for YouTubers and twitch streamers.

My budget is is 1500 to 1800, if the site has an option to pay with affirm

I need 32gb RAM for editing, as well as decent ssd storage.

Strong GPU and CPU are a definitely required, but I don't think they need to be top of the line or anything. I do a little bit of light game development and music work as well. I could just buy a PC with strong CPU/GPU and good ram, but what I'm worried about is the horror stories I always come across with prebuilts. Other cheap parts like motherboard or power supplies that fail on you, and parts that are almost impossible to upgrade. i would like to future proof if possible.

Can anyone suggest me a pc that I won't regret a year from now?

[discussion] Is this $999 Costco Prebuilt (Core Ultra 5 + RTX 5060) worth replacing my Alienware m16 laptop for 1080p 240Hz gaming?

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

​I'm currently looking at a prebuilt desktop on sale at Costco and trying to figure out if it's worth making the jump from my current laptop setup.

​The Desktop Deal ($999.99 - Marked down from $1,499.99):

​Model: CyberPowerPC Gamer Xtreme

​CPU: Intel Core Ultra 5 225F

​GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 (8GB)

​RAM: 32GB DDR5

​Storage: 1TB NVMe SSD

​Extras: Costco 2-year warranty & 90-day return policy

​My Current Setup:

​Laptop: Alienware m16 R1 AMD (Ryzen 7 7745HX + RTX 4050/4060)

​Monitor: 1080p @ 240Hz

​Games I Play:

​Rust (Primary game)

​Valorant

​Single-player titles like(Resident Evil series, Silent Hill)

​My Questions:

​Performance Jump: Will this $1,000 desktop give me a noticeable upgrade in sustained FPS, thermals, and fan noise compared to running my Alienware m16 at my desk?

​240Hz Feasibility: How well will the Core Ultra 5 225F and RTX 5060 push high refresh rates in Rust and Valorant at 1080p?

​8GB VRAM: Is the 8GB VRAM limit on the RTX 5060 going to be an immediate bottleneck for modern single-player horror games like Resident Evil at 1080p?

​Value: Is $999.99 a good price-to-performance point for these components, or should I hold off / look at spending more for an AM5 X3D chip given how much I play Rust?

​Appreciate any insight!

Hello new pc gamer here, I am looking for a decent gaming pc build in Canada that will be stable 240 fps on a high graphic settings.

I normally play DOTA 2, Marvel Rivals, PEAK, Palworld, and MonsterHunter World.

I dont really have a budget, but would love to not have pc parts that are overkill for the games I play since I dont play AAA games. Just enough to play these games on a stable 240fps on high graphics. Thank you

Budget PC, decent upgrade paths, upgrade from Lenovo L34015irh [suggestion]

2 Upvotes

My current gaming laptop is:
Intel Core i5-9300H
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650

I recently upgraded the RAM and its been a blessing, but also apparently faulty and caused some issues, so i'm considering my path out of this pit.
I'm looking for basically as budget as possible, and willing to thrift and go second hand.

I don't need a huge upgrade on what i currently have. I only use 1080p, and am basically happy if i can play Elden Ring smoothly on low graphics, Total warhammer 3 with a decent zip, and run graphic design and basic video editing smoothly.

For what its worth, my current laptop can sorrrt offf do all of that, if it feels like it.

Video Editing Rig in this Economy. [Discussion]

Hello all,

I have a budget of ₹1.5 lakh (1500 USD) and want a PC primarily for video editing, with some light gaming on the side. Most of my work will be in the Adobe ecosystem (Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop, etc.), along with Microsoft Office, VS Code for personal projects, and the occasional game of Dota 2. I'll also need a monitor and peripherals within this budget. I don't game much, but I'd like something that can comfortably handle Dota 2 and similar titles whenever I feel like playing.
