    Don't worry your doing great 🙂 (including Pcpartpicker list is much better then a lot of newbies).
     
    That's a pretty solid build. I would say unless your having any specific issues (really long load times, heat issues, et cetera) the most obvious upgrade would be a cpu upgrade (GPUs are flat out too expensive right now especially because the one you have is pretty decent).
     
    That said, what kind of monitor are you using. An upgrade to a 1440p 144hz monitor may be a much better investment then any other kind right now. If your monitor is 1080p 60hz then it's definetely your biggest weakpoint.

    I don't get why people don't do youtube red/google music more often. Its cheaper than most of these services and also offers youtube red not just music

If you replace the 1070 for 1660ti in this build then it is now in his budget range so thats good

    21rkosta got a reaction from halblah in LIAN LI PC-O11 Dynamic Razer Edition?   
    Well im pretty sure its actually being produced by lian li thereby it probably actually has pretty good build quality. Personally im not to big of a fan of razer and would prefer a different case (you can get tempered glass cases with rgb for cheaper) but if thats what you like than go for it man

    If the choice is between making a maybe slightly embarrassingly simple question, compared to continued ignorance or potentially doing something incorrectly? I'd always choose the ego hit and ask.

    Although i definitely like luke as a host, i think what hes doing for floatplane is important and i understand that it takes up most of his time so he does not have that much time to host videos.

    21rkosta reacted to themctipers in Buy more RAM or replace?   
    Just buy another pair of 2x8GB of 2800MHz ram, or even faster if it is close enough to that price (+/- $5 or so possibly)
     
    Save $ , it works.
