Budget (including currency): 50,000PHP Country: Philippines Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Mainly media consumption, and low profile games such as Dota 2 or Crossfire Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): The parts I've picked and the total are in the images, I'm upgrading from a Dell Optiplex I don't know which one it is. And also can the ryzen 5700g handle 144hz? I will probably buy the parts at the end of July or at October. This is my first time building please help me.

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/W7NVgL Is this a good mITX build? Should I change or add anything? (Not the case that's the whole idea of it)

My parents are alright with me buying a prebuilt with the money ive been saving for three years for the sole purpose to build a computer. I will try to order the packages spread out by around 3 days to a week. Do you think I can do it? Any tips? Has anyone attempted something similar?

Hello, everyone, I posted this once but didn't got any specific reply so i'm posting this again with an updated cpu list.--- I want to start streaming games like Fortnite, PUBG, Final fantasy 15, Tom Clancy's etc on twitch and YT. So i want to build a dedicated streaming PC specifically for the streaming purpose. I'll be using a capture card to record the gameplay from the primary PC to the secondary PC. At this moment I'm very confused about which processor to use.. I have mentioned the models of the processors I'm considering to use in my dedicated streaming PC. Please help me to choose the right one. Ryzen 3 2200G INTEL I-3 (8100) AMD FX 8300 AMD FX8320E I'm purchasing these parts in India. . This PC will only be used for streaming and it'll only run the necessary streaming software like the obs and all i might have to open a few browser windows tho, rather than that nothing else will be running there. And one more thing is it okay to use 4 gigs of ram or the 8gb is required in the dedicated streaming pc? Thank you.!!

Maybe another scrapyard wars but you have to build a full set up with a few thousand dollars or whatever currency you're using in Canada with the money build an overpowered computer with a cool case and added bonus a water cooling loop you also need to source monitors, try and find some really nice 21:9 monitors if you're using your overpowered pc for productivity - You're choice! or if you're going to make an overpowered gaming rig with 3 16:9 monitors or 2 16:9 monitors with a 21:9 monitor in the middle, this may be the hardest however but i feel like many gamers would like this setup if they tried it. Good luck

Hi i am going to build my first PC at some point (when i get some money) who ever when it comes to the CPU cooler i don't know which one to get or do i need one. I am doing a air cool only (water cool to advance for me). if anyone know which CPU cooler might fit in the case or is it worth having please tell also if anyone has a extra idea to add for my pc build tell me http://www.antec.com/product.php?id=706306&pid=89 my new case (Linus review) http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/parts/partlist/ the start of the parts https://www.scan.co.uk/products/nzxt-hueplus-advanced-pc-illumination-rgb-led-controller-in-matte-black-525-bay-1x-sata-power-with-n RGB lights I also got a EVGA 980ti and a corsair 1000w ps and 6TB sata harddrives

Hey Guys! I have a personal project about making a budget computer, do you guys have any suggestions on parts and such? Suggestion would be very helpful. Going to use the computer for mid-range gaming such as CS:GO (I'm Supreme if you would like to know) Also i would like to use this for work as well. Here are the current specs i suggest Product Name Intel Core i5-4460 3.2Ghz - Cache 6MB [box] Socket LGA 1150 ASRock Z87 Pro4 (LGA1150, Z87, DDR3) WDC 1TB SATA 64MB - Caviar Black RE4 Corsair DDR3 Vengeance Pro Red PC12800 8GB (2X4GB) Asus Geforce GT 730 DDR3 2GB 128 bit Cooler Master VS 750W - 80PLUS GOLD LG DVDRW 24X SATA - GH24NS50 [bOX] This cost around $600 (a little overbudget) I'm trying to go under the budget. Thanks in advance Mika.

When to Buy, and When to Build The most common option is to buy a pre-built system, but as many of you (On the LinusTechTips forum) already know, PC building is a walk in the park. Most people think of PC building as soldering things and designing circuits while in reality (Laptops aside) it is a very basic concept. What I mean to say is that building a PC is practical if you want a custom experience with the bumps of the road, or you can buy a pre-build system with peace of mind and a warranty in most cases. When to Buy The most practical time to buy a pre-built system is when you are not on a budget and you want things to work, and if they don't you still have tech support. This route is most common when you don't want to deal this the mess of learning how to build a computer and how to repair it if it needs fixing. This route also comes with downsides with the lack of understanding the way computers work and it makes you more easy to scam when finding help for your PC. All in all, PC building is hard and sometimes you need a computer to work, but if you don't have a budget this is the way to go. Things to avoid when buying: -Alienware -Computers that don't come with a dedicated gpu (If gaming) -Impulse Buying -Those real cheap PC builds on EBAY -RAM isn’t everything (8GB is good for most, including gamers) -This article is exactly what you should NOT do: http://bit.ly/1ilZLXK (You can tell it is legit because they call a PC a CPU) When To Build One of the most rewarding things to do is to build a PC, but like all rewarding things you need to earn it. To build a PC you need to understand how a PC works and in some cases you will need to chose parts for the computer. If you don't want to pick out parts, I will give you a few useful links to build guides I really like. You will be pleased to learn that building a PC costs LESS then buying a pre-buit system, but it does not come with a warranty and you don't have anyone to cry to if you screw up. When done right it gives a good bang for the buck and it leaves you feeling smart. So, if you are not faint of heart, I would strongly recommend building vs buying.

PC building is for masters, while buying is for people who don't have time or the knowledge.

Hello all, So I built my first PC early October, and had been meaning to post a build log. Kinda disappointed that i didn't take more photos but hey. My specs are: Case: Coolermaster K280 Gaming Mid-tower Mobo: Gigabyte GA-78LMT-S2P PSU: Cooler Master silent pro gold 550W 120mm fan RAM: 2x 4GB 1333MHz DDR3 dual channel HDD: WD Black Edition 1TB Monitor: Samsung LS24C300HL/XY 24" CPU: AMD FX-6300 six core Black Edition 3.5GHz, turbos to 4.1GHz GPU: EVGA GTX 660 SuperClocked 2GB Mouse: Logitech G500S w/variable weights (4.5g and 1.5g) Keyboard: Cooler Master Storm Quickfire Pro (Cherry MX red switches) Mechanical KB Headset: Steelseries Siberia V2 Wireless: TP-Link TL-WN751ND Wireless PCI adapter Overall, Im pretty happy with my first build considering I put it all together myself which did seem a little daunting at the time. I'll post some pictures to show you how it all ended up. Thanks

https://pcpartpicker.com/user/BodiXDDD/saved/ZpG6hM Should I change or add anything?

Hey guys I am building another computer and this one is going to be for myself. I have built 2 computers, a computer for myself, and one for my grandma. The build I am thinking about building is only going to be used once every 2 weeks or so, so I dont need a high end Pc so thats why my plan is the new Amd Apu's (Richland). My budget is $450 (American) without a monitor and such. Preffered Retailer- Ncix because I can price match newegg and amazon. Newegg is an option also because I have used newgg and had no problems, but I just want to try Ncix. (Ncix US by the way) Monitors and Such- Ill add it to a seperate cost Overclocking- I overclock on my main computer and on this one i dont need to Custom Water Cooling- No Operating System- Dont include it, I can find one I do not Plan on Bitcoin Mining Settings- I dont care it an apu and im using this computer rarely Resolution- 1920x1080 Games- All kind of games really but on this computer, Maybe Indie Games and some onlinne games such as Counter Strike or Tf2, in the future Cod Ghosts (I hate Cod But im willing to give the new engine a try). Rendering- I will not be rendering anything on this machine Peripherals- I'll find them myself Other Notes: I dont need richland, any build will be fine considering this build will be used rarely, but I want preserve this build for as long as possible. Also, I dont need an SSD, I love them, but to keep budget down, a 500gb HDD will be more than great. I wouldnt mind micro atx because its cheaper as well as smaller and can stay out of the way, but one case i prefer is a Fractel Design Core 1000 because it's cheap and I have experience building on this case for my Grandma's Pc. No Need to add extra fans a have a bunch of 120mm's and 80mm's lying around and this case supports both. And I want the motherboard ready out of the box so I dont need to do a bios update. Thank you guys for checking this out and possibly helping me, it will be a big help if you can. And sorry for such a big post I just wanted to go in detail for you guys and sorry for not having a pcpartpicker link, again thanks and have a good day.
