I’ve got wide feet and wear size 11.5 and I’m tall. I’ve been learning on an 8 in by 31 in deck. I’m gonna buy a new setup once I think I’m ready but I don’t know what size deck I should pick. I want it to be good for both transition and tricks

Hey there, I bought my current build used on Marketplace for $400 in 2021, and it's finally time to make some changes. Since then, I have bought my current GPU, but everything else is the same. I copied someone else's format for this post because it seemed super helpful, thank you SAUCE_POPPA ;)

I would prefer to keep some small things from my previous build to pinch pennies, like the case and PSU if possible, as well as having an air cooler for the CPU instead of an AIO

Current Build

• CPU - AMD Ryzen 5 2600 Six-Core Processor
• RAM - 2x 8gb sticks of Warhawk DDR4
• GPU - 1080 Geforce GTX 8 gb
• Motherboard - MSI B450 Tomahawk
• PSU - FSP Group PT-850FM 850 Watt 80 PLUS Platinum
• cheap ah amazon wifi + BT card (one antenna broke when I moved to college so its kinda spotty) I need something with WIFI so that it works where I'm living, but this works for now
• AMD Wraith Prism CPU cooler
• Lian Li Lancool 215

PC purpose?

• 30% schoolwork 70% games. I try to keep my schoolwork on my laptop except maybe rendering
• Games like:
  • Black Myth Wukong
  • Forza 6
  • Helldivers 2
  • Microsoft Flight Sim (one day far away)

Near Micro Center?

• Yes, in MN, United States

Budget

• Preferably ~ $800, though I can dig down to $1200

WiFi or wired connection?

• WiFi needed with wired option

Size/noise constraints?

• I don't care about noise
• I would like to keep the current case

Color/lighting?

• A little is nice, but not too overboard. I am a fan of small its and bits of RGB, like the Be Quiet Pure Loop 2, for example

Hey there, I'm looking for things to upgrade on my current setup that are relatively cheap. I know that Prime Day is coming up, so I would love to capitalize on that when it does. it really came to my attention that I needed to upgrade when I saw that I couldn't handle Forza 6, but I also REALLY want to play Black Myth Wukong on some better graphics. I attached my current setup below.

I have a budget of around $600- 800. I can go higher, but I would just prefer to save a bit of cash right now. I originally bought this second-hand off of Facebook Marketplace around 5 years ago for $400, so it's definitely a pretty dated setup. I would prefer to keep everything inside my current case. I don't care about RGB, as long as I can turn all, or even a majority of it off.

Lian Li Lancool 215 (Love this case)

Thanks in advance for all the help. I used to be super into PCs, but after I finally got one, I haven't been keeping up with the market, and I'm kinda just lost right now.
