Budget can stretch; depends on usage, quality of item, communication with seller regarding questions being answered etc. Would prefer buyer protection so no PayPal f&f or bank transfer. Thanks
Hey all, bit naive so hope this finds you lovely people well.
I'm looking to build a gaming/streaming setup. Predominantly I am after an AM5 set up but will use an older-gen gpu like a 3080, 3080ti, 4070 equivalent (not AMD as they aren't known for streaming very well unless I am wrong)
To start with, I care not about 'bottlenecks', as I will be making a great shift to university level education soon and won't have the time to stream and game anyway. I will be using 2x 1080p monitors, and I am open to buying used parts besides the mobo and PSU (safety and warranty I guess). Is this realistic with a ryzen 5 9600x or equivalent? For streaming and gaming, I won't mind a steady upgrade path towards 1440p gaming and beyond hence why I'd rather an AM5 build for now.
Streaming-wise, it'll be study with me and just chat with me content for the most part. I'm not an impressive gamer, but if I ever want to venture into this, I'd like the pc to be powerful enough.
I'd like your opinions please - also open to budget increase or decrease suggestions with reason – It'll be my first ever pc and I'd appreciate it lasting the next 5 years. Thank you all!!
