As in your budget is $1000 and were might have purchased both?

Because the PC price isn't too bad, but there'd be no real reason to upgrade from a 2060

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
 

Spoiler

 

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

Buying used PC parts is the worst idea possible. They rarely work and you can't return them.

 

Watch Scrapyard wars for how much stuff they buy and end up having non functional or have random errors.

The only reason I was ever interested in them, was to flip them. However, I'm not interested anymore in buying either, but thank you both for your suggestions!

Not true at all. Used parts is an amazing thing. Dont talk out of your ass. The reason most of the Scrapyard wars dont work well is because they are using $300 bottom barrel parts usually.

 

You simply have to pay attention and know what to look for, and if you do that buying used parts saves you tons of money. PC Parts that are taken care of are VERY hard to kill.
