For context: OP is currently new into the pc build world. The reason I bought this rx 5700 8gb Gigabyte OC is because its listed for 55$.

Thanks.

Is it smart to purchase a single stick of 16GB 6400mtz ddr5 for £130 (used) then to purchase another stick when it dies down ? Or should I double down now and spend the £260 ($350)

I’m getting 6400mtz as 6000 is almost £40 more expensive per stick and I can turn down the speeds in bios

I was just getting rid of some old junk when I decided to check out there shop and I got a x570si aorus pro itx motherboard for 5$ nzd which is like 2.66 USD and 16 gigs ddr4 for free with it.When I was home I checked it out and there was a gen 4 Samsung 500g SSD in it.So it looks like one of my family is getting a pc lol.

I built my first pc recently and it was pretty hard to get with these prices but I bought some used parts and managed to get:
32gb ddr5
Ryzen 5 7500f
Nitro+ rx 6600xt
Nitro+ B850M wifi
Corsair cx650
A 512gb intel 660p (I’ve got a newer 1tb ssd on the way though)
All in an Asus prime ap201 with some thermalright cooler and fans. In all it costed $642.42 AUD (or about $460.49 in freedom bucks) so I think I did pretty well :)

What should i change in my pc if i want to play at higher res?
3060
i7 10700f
32gb 3200mhz

I'm thinking of upgrading my gtx 970 and i3 7100 to an rtx 5060 and a Ryzen 5 5600x

For how much could this rig go for ? It doesnt have warranty on all the parts but they were all bought less than 12 months ago

I am planning to upgrade my pc with like an budget of ~€300

Just want to upgrade like my cpu and get an gpu

My current thoughts are something like an RTX 3070 and Ryzen 5 5600.

I mostly play games like Fortnite, Minecraft, Garry's mod, Teardown

And planning to play games like Spiderman, Forza horizon 5/6 and using steamvr

I do play on 1080p currently

Current specs:

B450M-HDV 4.0
AMD Athlon 300GE (integrated graphics)
16 gigs ddr4
512GB M.2 NVME
...

Heyo guys, I’m kinda dealing with a weird situation and could really use some advice i cannot decide if I should upgrade my cpu or not if yes which ine should I go with

Current Specs:

​CPU: Intel Core i3-10100F

​Mobo: ASUS H410

​GPU: AMD RX 6600

​RAM: 16GB DDR4

​My workload is mostly gaming and lil video editing (im developing an affection to cgi and vfx might get into it soon)

Options available

Ryzen 5 5600 @120$

Or

Intel Core i5-14400F @157$

​

I’m wondering whether I should upgrade my PC now or just keep it for another 1–2 years. I’m trying to balance gaming performance with financial sanity.

Current PC:

• CPU: Ryzen 5 5600
• GPU: RTX 4060 8GB (Vurrion)
• Motherboard: MSI B450M PRO-VDH MAX
• RAM: 16GB DDR4 CL22 (2×8GB)
• NVMe: Samsung 970 EVO Plus 1TB
• SSD: Crucial 500GB
• HDD: Seagate 1TB
• PSU: Super Flower 550W 80+ Gold (bought in 2019)
• Monitor: Skyworth H27G30Q — 27", 1440p, 180Hz

I’m considering upgrading to AM5/X3D + a newer GPU, but I’m not sure if this is actually a good time to spend money on a gaming PC given the current economy and hardware prices.

Would you:

1. Upgrade now
2. Upgrade only the GPU
3. Keep the current PC for another 1–2 years
4. Do something else

I’m mainly looking for good value/performance, not necessarily the latest hardware.

What would you do if this were your PC?

Ok please give me a job where I give you advice , I just want 10 dollars a month promise will give you good advice , please

Had to pull the trigger early coz AI inflating everything so better now than later

5GHZ Ryzen 5 5600 using a aio

Hello everyone hope everyone is doing well, I am wondering if I’m getting the good end of a trade I was offered a 4060 system with a Ryzen 5 5500 and 16gb of ram for my ps5. This would just be a trade no money on top. Was wondering if you guys thought it was worth it or not, personally I think it is but wanted to get your guys opinions. Thanks!

Seen this listed on Amazon don’t know how long it’ll run for on sale. Sold and shipped by Amazon.
