PC Build Advice

Yosenky

Hey guys, I am currently in the process of saving up to build a gaming pc (duh), and I want it to be the best of the best, or the best I can get for around $3000, this is my build so far, any tips/advice? I want to game in ALL games at 144 Hz 1080p, and more than likely record too.

you can save some money here with still getting the best but if your looking to record thats tough because ryzen 7 does better when it comes to video production.

I'm not the best when it comes to choosing hardware. i think that's more of a personal thing. What I can say is when you build it double check all the wires and that they are connected correctly. From there CHECK TO SEE IF THE POWER SUPPLY IS PLUGGED IN! I scared the crap out of myself because I thought I killed my computer before it even turned on. Nothing happened when I clicked the power button. I was done about to look into returning stuff then my dad walked over, plugged it in, and told me to check EVERY wire next time.

A smile goes much farther than the person it's meant for.

First impressions are important, it sets the stage for respect.
