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.

Is there a Website to find good On A budget? Cuz I don't know how to build my on PC or know the stuff I need to build one so I was wondering if there is a good website out there to help buy a good starter PC cuz Walmart sucks ass and Best Buy is way too expensive

I was thinking about working my butt off for a couple months and getting a pc any advice about what pc to get I was think about buying a starforge horizon elite pc but I don’t know if it’s good and worth the money

Looking to buy my first gaming pc. I am looking for a prebuilt one as I don’t know how to build it myself. If yall can give me suggestions on what I should get and what to look for in the pc. I play all games mostly call of duty and gta. My budget is $1,300-$1,600. I appreciate the help guys and girls !!!

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 :)

So I built my first ever custom pc. After setting up windows and fully building it what are the first things I should do before I start downloading and installing apps for games and personal use. The computer is built for gaming, multitasking, and creativity. Help me out

So long story short, I was an idiot and upgraded my old ass Dell Inspiron 15R from 4GB to 16GB DDR3 RAM. Now I found out that the CPU and integrated graphics are the bottlenecks. So my laptop is not using even half of all the available RAM. What can I do to fully utilize my RAM?

im thinking about building a new pc and im getting mixxed answers as pc part picker thinks that it wont work at all but i see posts on reddit and other sources saying it will so i just wont to know if the build will work and if i can vertically mount my gpu or if there isnt enough room for that here the pc part picker link https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/GFxBqd
