PC Build

[DweJiBah]

Can someone make a build for me that can be used on the ultra wide gaming computer monitors? I'm not sure what minimum specs are needed to be able to run an ultra-wide monitor. I'm planning on using this computer for gaming, and light video/photo editing. Also, can someone recommend me an ultra-wide curved gaming monitor? I don't know which one is good. Trying to keep the cost as low as possible, but I'm not too strict on the budget. I will spend money on where I have to.

What's your budget, exactly? Can you wait a couple more months for the new GPU and CPU releases?

I live in the USA. I think 3500 is overkill because I don't need an insane build for my use. I was thinking $2500 with the big curved monitor included. I just really like the curved monitor after I saw my friend have it for his build.

Around $2500 with monitor. I would like it soon. I don't really need the newest parts and I don't think the new products will make the price much different as well.

You need to give a lot more information like:

• Is the video editing every now and then, as a hobby, or for work?
• What games?
• What ultrawide monitor? They come in sizes from 29" to 49".
• Do you need peripherals?

Ummm. Parts rn will be much cheeper when new gpus and cpus launch

You could go for something like this. Personally I would wait for the new CPUs and GPUs coming out here in September and October, right now is a terrible time to buy/build a computer with the pandemic and shortages of components.

I would get something similar when the new gpus and cpus drop in price in next couple months. a 4700x and a 6700xt, if that is what they are called, and amd doesn't kill the nVidia gpus.

video editing is for a hobby and for the monitor i want a 49 inch one, but i don't know which one is good. besides the monitor I don't need any peripherals. I don't play a lot of graphically intensive games. I play a lot of valorant, and party games with my friends.

Samsung C49HG90 49" DFHD 144Hz HDMI DP FreeSync HDR Curved LED Gaming Monitor 

I don't know if this is a good one. Would this one be worth it? Or no. Not very knowledgeable about monitors.

No. There's one that's a step up from that, that wouldn't be bad, but you don't want a 1080p monitor of that size.

For a 49", Rtings' best pick is the Samsung C49RG9, though it comes in at a cool $1300 MSRP.

This Alienware monitor has G-Sync btw, but since you're playing less intensive games you could just go for a FreeSync only panel, you could go for something like an LG 34GN850-B instead.
