Budget (including currency): $700(PC Only)

Country: USA

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Fortnite gaming

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): Aiming for 144hz and up, and 1080p

I am going to get a new gaming pc soon, and I am trying to go for a budget PC. Could anyone help me by telling me if this cheap gaming PC is good for gaming (games such as Fortnite, Roblox)

 

Here is the gaming PC I am trying to get: https://www.amazon.com/SkyTech-Blaze-Gaming-Computer-Desktop/dp/B07RG8KM2C/ref=sr_1_13?dchild=1&keywords=gaming+pc&qid=1603504037&s=electronics&sr=1-13 

Is the power supply and motherboard good?

Thanks!

2600, 1650 and 8 gb ram for $699? Doesn't seem like a good deal at all. Could probably fit at least a 1650S and 16 gb ram for that place if you go custom.

The specs seem a bit lack luster for that price, where custom will make your dollars go farther.

It's only one since Ryzen 5000 hasn't released, and with ryzen 5000 it would be 2 not 3 since ryzen 5000 is the 4th generation of AMD cpu's not the 5th.

I would recommend building your own computer to be quite honest, plus this build I put together has 3rd gen ryzen and a better case, power supply, and more ram.

It's $50 more than that prebuilt and you can learn new skills while building this. Linus also has a ton of build guides so it should be relatively straight forward.

I'd be more concerned with the dust, the airflow seems half decent since the front, there's a gap between the fans and the front panel so the airflow is actually decent.  And I doubt he's going to be ashamed of anything, it's just a PC.

Just because you can't buy one, doesn't mean that they didn't exists.

And a new generation being announced does mean that the previous Gens are older, and as such a worse value than when there were available new, which is the point I'm trying to hammer in.

They are made on the exact same Zen 2 architecture with Renoir cores, therefore they are not a different generation.

motherboard bad, PSU looks bad but can't confirm much based on the listing

 

what a rip off for $700

this PC is better than it in basically every way for over $100 cheaper. Newer motherboard, dual channel ram, better graphics card, faster CPU, decent PSU, good airflow, 500GB M.2 SSD so that you don't have to worry about wires.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad
