r/GamingPCBuildHelp

So I’ve recently just got myself a PC that has a Intel 14th generation 14700f with a MSI Z790 plus Wi-Fi gaming motherboard a RTX 4060 TI with 16 GB of VRAM and 32 GB of DDR five and I think a terabyte of storage that Kingston SSDM.2 and I believe I have a 360mm AIO. I honestly don’t know if this is any good because last PC that I had I had a Ryzen 5 5500 with a RTX 3080. And I think for terabytes of storage.
I just genuinely haven’t been in the game for a long time and I sold that computer and got this new one. I just genuinely don’t know what’s good or bad anymore. I was just figuring I could ask for some help about my PC because I literally know nothing about it. I feel like a newborn baby. I got myself a 100 Hz 34 inch monitor. i’m not sure if that’s any good. I just figured that I would get it because all the people that I’ve talked to say that a big monitor is nice. I think I’m picking it up from the PC inspection place on Monday. I just genuinely don’t know what’s good and what’s bad I believe that I had DDR4 16 GB of memory on my last PC. I figured I would just say hello to this Reddit and ask if this is any good? I’m not trying to flex if it is a flex. I’m just trying to get information about it.
Thank you for reading my post. I don’t mean to be a nuisance. Have an amazing day. Thank you.

Hi guys im not a bit sure of this build what do you recommend? Its my first time to build a pc

Looking to pair a 7800x3d with a 9070xt.
Budget: ~£1800 (the lower the better but can understand if it’s worth spending the extra little bit here and there)
Will be playing on a 1440p monitor
1TB storage is enough
Not too sure on the rest of the parts in terms of where to prioritise more budget, if AIO liquid cooling is necessary, whether I need to buy extra fans etc.
(Buying components in the UK)

I'm currently using an RTX 2060 Super 8GB with an i5-9600KF and 32GB DDR4 RAM. I'm looking to upgrade, and my options are: RTX 3060 12GB (AliExpress) for around R5,500 (about US$339) RX 6800 XT 16GB for around R6,400 (about US$394) Which graphics card would you recommend and why? Is the RX 6800 XT worth spending the extra money? Thanks!

Im new to building a pc and I want to build on for just animation softwares art softwares and playing games. My budget is around $3k and would love if anyone gave me a complete list of items I need to build a pc!! ^_^

Hi all!! Sorry, I used to have a prebuild but modified it on a bit specific specs:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 3.60 GHz (4.40 GHz Max Boost), 8-Core 16-Thread
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 8GB
Chipset: AMD B450
RAM: 32gb DDR4 3000MHz
HDD: 1TB
SSD: 1TB M.2 NVMe SSD
EHD: 4TB
CPU Cooler: im using a Lian li galahad 240mm which was a bit pricy
PSU: 750W 80 Plus Gold

I have been looking at 5070s since they’re around the $2000 mark, its a bit pricy but with some saving should be fine!! At the same time, 5080 prebuilt’s I’m seeing at $3000, so I’m unsure if these are really worth it (if it’s a substantial upgrade and really worth the upgrade now) or to wait until the 7 series? My parts I believe are from mid 2020, whenever the 5950x was popular lol (barely remember?)
Sorry if this question is dumb, i lean toward prebuilts because truthfully i dont get the process as a gal and i had some random friend swap my case out to make it pink, i usually just like a plug and play and then change it when it works for a bit lol
Thank you for the help!!! I know “there will always be something better in the future” but just wanna hear some opinions and options!!!

Hiya yall, i ve been wanting to build a pc for years and i am gonna make it happen soon, but choosing the gpu and the platform has been an issue for me. I like am5 because of its longevity and performance but am4 is cheaper and has better price/performance . Im in a tight budget of 1400 dollars including monitor and stuff. I currently cannot order parts from online and have to do it myself locally( Azerbaijan ). Id like a 1440p build but the ram prices screws everything up. I d like to hear your thoughts about am5 and am4. And the rx 6800 xt or non xt seem like a good option for me (both used), is there a major difference between those two? Thanks for your attention

Next Friday is the day I embark on building my first gaming pc. I have no idea what antivirus software I should install to protect my investment. Can anyone help me with what I should use and not use? I know that norton isn’t good.

I need help switching out parts if yall got any good recommendations these are my parts below

- R7 7800X3D

- ASUS B650E MAX GAMING WIFI MOTHERBOARD

- DDR5 32GB 6000MHZ RAM

- CORSAIR RM1000E PSU

- THERMALTAKE VIEW 270 CASE

- BIWIN BLACK OPAL 1TB SSD GEN4x4

- XFX SWIFT 9070XT TRIPLE FAN GAMING EDITION

- ARCTIC LIQUID FREEZER III 240MM

- ACER PREDATOR X27U 1440P 240 HZ QD-OLED monitor

The cpu,motherboard, and ram are apart of a micro center deal, tell me what parts to switch out except the bundle unless yall got some good recommendations that can switch out the bundle.

-also this build comes out to around 2.1k-2.2k USD

Hello,

I'm planning to upgrade my PC, but I'm not sure which component I should upgrade first. Could you please guide me on where to start?

Thank you!

Info:

CPU: i7 11700k - (no liquid cooler) - Motherboard: asusprime B560M-K - GPU: MSI RTX 3080TI - RAM:16G 3200GHz - Power: Coolermaster 750white

Hello, a few months ago I built a second pc for myself. Its great, new specs and all- nothing crazy just a decent build. Here is where the issue lies; Every so often, here and there my PC takes a dump. At first it would just crash after 5 minutes of running and give me the 'Your PC ran into a problem' and where it attempts to repair whatever could have gone wrong or files that may have gone corrupt and all roads showed me to have faulty RAM that just happened to be brand new. . .

I have since gotten past the constant crashing but still have an ongoing reoccurrence of this lousy computer seeming to fall apart internally. Long story short, I play Escape from Tarkov and its been nothing but problems. The game and devs definitely have their share of game bugs and launcher issues, but it's certain they aren't the issue. At first is will not let me launch the game from and gives me the game terminated error after attempted launch. Then I would restart my launcher/PC and then it would force me to select 'REPAIR FILES' where it would never truly repair anything. I had fixed this before by rolling back my GPU drivers and everything was just great. Then it happened again. My drivers had updated since the last occurrence, so I had assumed rolling back once more would fix the issue again, but it has not.

Throughout this irritating endeavor I have uninstalled both launcher and game with a total of 71gb storage. . . over a whopping 8 times- I am serious. The only thing I can conclude is that its Faulty RAM that is brand new, or something I am doing is causing corrupt files across my entire computer constantly enough I cannot tend to.

Can somebody heaven sent PLEASE for the love of all things good, tell me what will work. I have looked into genuinely everything (Reinstalling Game, Resetting PC, Reseating RAM, Running CHCKDSK, running RAM tests, and almost putting a hole in my monitor)

Thanks!

EDIT: Im finding that the main problem could just be XMP profile, does this line up?

Hi all,

I normally play on PS5 and I tend to play story driven games (I’m not into massive fantasy games I find them to have too much info or too much to learn my adhd confuses me with it) however I really want to get into pc gaming.

At the moment the main thing I want a pc for is to mainly play Minecraft, mostly modded if I’m being honest, like I want to be able to run mods and a good set of shader, one of the YouTuber I watch a lot is distributive build, I know with a beginner set up I won’t be able to use his shader, but I’d like to get a pc that can handle modded MC and some form of shaders and maybe a few other basic mods (such as a tree chopping mode and more mobs/animals and maybe at a push something like the twilight realm etc) I hope there a few people in the same situation as me and any help on a pc for this sort of set up would be massively appreciated I don’t have a crazy sort of budget so anything that In a reason budget and any help would be greatly appreciated:) not only am I new to the pc community but this is also my first time on Reddit so I hope you’re all as useful and kind as I’m hoping for :)
