I need help building a pc

[Kevinslm]

My budget rang is between 2,500-3,000 USD. I already have a monitor, case, and ram picked out. I need help with everything else. The pc will be used for gaming and streaming on twitch and a little bit of editing.

sorry if I’m bothering

How long can you wait before building? New nvidia gpus are launching in a matter of weeks and new amd cpus and gpus along with new intel cpus are launching sometime later this year.

Don't build a PC right now, the new gpus are about to be announced and the current gen ones suck for the money. Nvidia was hinting at something September 1st.

I’m not going to build it until around Christmas

2.5-3k for all the other parts, or including said parts? If the latter, we will need to know what they are to factor the cost in.

Nvm everyone is telling me to wait until all the new stuff comes out thanks tho

Then don’t bother with the effort of making a list now, by then there will be all new parts and prices. Make the list a week or two before you plan on buying.

It would be so bad to buy anything now. Nvidia is under a ton of pressure because the XBox Series X is coming out in a couple of months with a gpu whose rasterization power is somewhere in between 2080 and 2080 Super and PS5 with a gpu in between 2070 and 2070 Super. You're talking current $700 and $500 gpus in consoles that are likely to cost $500, maybe $600. So Nvidia is gong to have to really up the price to performance if they want people buying their shit instead of the new consoles. On top of that the new Nvidia gpus seem very very power hungry so you might end up needing a bigger power supply than you would budget for if building right now.

In that case you'll not only have new Nvidia gpus to choose from, but new AMD ones too. And new AMD processors most likely also.

If you are prioritising gaming then get whatever Intel’s current best CPU is (i9 109...), if you are prioritising editing and streaming then get AMD’s best CPU (go Ryzen 9, not thread ripper)

Wait for RTX 3000 and then get the best non Titan or quadro card (3090?) assuming the leaks aren’t true and it isn’t 2000$.

As said above just wait for zen 3 and ampere and big Navi and check what they have to offer and then decide.
