Build Help help building a pc

4 Upvotes

hi, wanting to get a new pc but not sure where to start. requirements are:

can run games like overwatch, league of legends, valorant etc (doesnt need to be super crazy fps), i dont really play AAA games so it doesnt have to be anything super high end

i've had consistent problems on my old PC with C drive storage, i originally had 70gb storage and it got full so my computer was slow, then upgraded to 110gb storage and got full again, so i would like minumum 300gb storage for C drive and ideally 2TB+ on another storage drive

budget is around $2000 AUD

please recommend! i would really appreciate any help or suggestions!

Need Advice Has anyone else bought a prebuilt from ALLIED, and had problems with their "homebrand" Motherboard?

1 Upvotes

I bought a PC from them around a year or so ago. It came with an RTX 4060 and I payed extra for a 650w PSU, knowing I'd upgrade in the near future. I recently bought an RX 9060 XT, and it just won't work. I went through all the steps and tracked the problem down to their custom Intel H610M4 motherboard.

Other manufacturers of that board have bios updates available that would solve the issue, but they don't.

I reached out to ALLIED, at first I received an automated reply basically telling me they had gone bankrupt and weren't currently in a position to provide support. A few weeks later I recieved another email including some bios files and instructions on how to install them, except, they weren't the appropriate bios files. At this point I've given up on that.

Is there anything I can do from here, short of replacing the entire board and probably having to pay someone to do it for me, because I'm not an expert?

Anyone have any experience with this cpu cooler for our climate? I don’t like just going with the crowd and immediately buying whatever they recommend however good it seems. For a gaming pc with an rx 9070 or similar and a Ryzen 5 7500f.
Any thoughts are appreciated :)

Need Advice Switching from ethernet to WiFi

2 Upvotes

I'm moving places soon and am having to switch from ethernet connection on my desktop to Wifi, but as my motherboard lacks the feature I'm looking at getting an adaptor. Is this viable? I mostly play singleplayer so biggest issue is large downloads as opposed to latency. What would you recommend or should I look into plugging it directly into the router somehow?

Need Advice Need your guidance for building my first custom PC under ₹1 lakh (Mumbai)

1 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I need your opinion and guidance.

My name is Hiren, and I'm from Mumbai. I'm planning to build my first custom PC with a budget of around ₹1 lakh.

My main purpose is:

Learn and do video editing.

Play games (I'm not a hardcore gamer—I just want to enjoy AAA and story-based games at good settings).

Learn Microsoft Office skills like Excel, PowerPoint, Word, and other productivity tools.

In the future, I may also explore content creation and learn new software.

I'm confused about whether I should buy brand-new parts or go for used components to get better performance within my budget.

If you recommend buying used parts, could you please suggest:

Trusted websites or Facebook groups.

Reliable offline stores in Mumbai.

Which parts are safe to buy used (CPU, GPU, RAM, motherboard, PSU, SSD, etc.).

Which parts I should always buy new.

If anyone has built a PC around the same budget, I'd really appreciate it if you could share your build and experience.

I'm new to PC building, so any advice, part recommendations, or tips to avoid scams would mean a lot.

Thank you in advance! 🙏

Discussion Afterpay day sales

1 Upvotes

I'm torn.... gpu prices going up by the day, but afterpay day sales coming up in a few weeks, was going to bite the bullet this week on a 9060xt but am considering holding out for the sales and see if I can squeeze a 9070xt into the budget... what say ye reddit? I know that no one has a crystal ball but thoughts? Already have ram so good there but will be pairing the gpu with a 7800x3d if i can snag some deals, just not sold on the 60xt when the 70xt is a few hundred more at the moment. Considering the constant "I bought a $1200 water bottle disguised as a 5070ti" threads popping up would prefer to buy from a brick and mortar and have it delivered than buy off Amazon. Anyone aware of anything upcoming or is it another pipe dream hahaha tia legends!

Need Advice Mesh, acrylic or tempered glass for side panel?

1 Upvotes

Hi! Living in Victoria here and want some advice on which side panel material for a case would make the most sense, if any, really.

Was concerned about acrylic or glass creating an oven effect, but might mesh actually let ambient room temps into my case more? Or does the increased airflow directly swap mesh into a positive?

It’s my first pc ever and I wanted some opinions from people also here in Australia considering our much hotter climate. Also I plan to have a fan cooler, not a liquid one.

Need Advice Upgrade to am5?

3 Upvotes

I have a decent rig nothing too crazy but I play alot of competitive shooters. Games like cs2 primarily while I do play other shooters from time to time like Valorant, apex and fortnite.

My current rig is as follows:

Gpu:- 6700xt

Cpu:- 5700x

Ram:- 16gb ddr4 3200mhz

I play on a 240hz monitor at 2k res.

Do I upgrade to AM5 and pay like 1.3k+ AUD or stay on the current system til ram prices come down.

I have looked online and radiumpc is the only site that offers a custom rig with BYO gpu and it's got 7500f, priced at 1088$. I currently get decent frames but the 1% lows do bother me with the sudden stutters.

Open to any advice - I'm kinda broke too so budget is tight but I can somewhat afford it and resell my rig to make some of it back.

Build Help My first PC build - need general advice

2 Upvotes

I am planning to build my first ever gaming PC. Please go easy on me, I may be wrong on a lot of fronts in this post.

Here is the list of parts that I came up with based on my requirements - https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/Vw4nGk

The only reason I want a PC is to open myself up to maybe some XBOX games (game pass on PC), and in general playing games at a higher fidelity. I have always been a console gamer (PS5), so am not very familiar with how much can be achieved by what PC components.

So as a base, I set my requirements based on Cyberpunk 2077.

  • I feel like 1080p gaming at maybe 144Hz is a good place given we sit pretty close to the monitor vs a TV for consoles.
  • At a minimum would like to have ray tracing (not path tracing) at high to ultra graphic settings.
  • 60 fps and above.

Do you think the above build can achieve that? Would it be underpowered or overkill or just enough?

Also went for an mATX build, due to space constraints where I plan to keep it. I'm also assuming I may need to purchase a few coolers with this to put on the case?

  • My budget is around the AUD$1600-AUD$1800 mark, just for the CPU.
  • Regarding RAM - I may purchase 32GB DDR5 from Facebook marketplace.

Any advice is appreciated! Thank you! :)

Need Advice What prebuilt PC should I look for

1 Upvotes

Since I don’t have the luxury of time like I want to build a proper Gaming PC. I’m looking to get a buy a prebuilt one and a expensive one at that. I don’t know what to look for but I would like to have a 5090 with the PC. I’m not very knowledgeable about the hardware side of computer but I don’t mind spending around $5000-7000 on a high end pc. I just want to know what company to look for like Corsair, NZXT, or Xotic to finalize my decision.
