PSU. if you plan to carry forward this build, go 750 watt and a better quality PSU. I recommend the Corsair RM 750 watt. I have it and its pretty nice

Is the price jump from a 650 to the 750 your recommending big or ? Because I do plan on building off this in the future if possible.

Ah no I don't think I will except maybe a new monitor if its recommended. Thanks :) 

I was just wondering if you were going to give all those things to your brother as well, therefore; necessitating you need new ones.

As long as the MB has 4 slots, you can always add. 

It's why I got 32GB 3600Mhz in my recent build, that way I can add the same again in the future.

This is my thought. 

 

I didn't go with as much storage. 

But I also picked things you can actually get your hands on now. 

 

And there are plenty of videos for you to build your own computer. 

It just takes time and a Philips head screwdriver.

Ya I should have explained better, I plan on keeping my current keyboard and mouse than my brother already bought a new monitor since I told him I would give him this one that he uses with his XBOX for now.

Now im confused when I go on the site it says Compatibility: Warning!  should I just ignore that? Also if I were to change the storage up to where I would only get maybe 2 or 3TB what would you recommend? Sorry if anything I ask sounds dumb I really got no clue

You cant go wrong with both suggestion, the latter has an older cpu, probably you can get your hands on one since the newer one i posted is not widely available. Since you have the budget i highly suggest you get a RX6800xt or RTX3080 for the GPU (if you can get one). You can skip the 4TB IHD / HDD since you already had one, but i still suggest you get 32gb, even if you don't need it now.

The warning is tipical for that system since the CPU is newer than the motherboard. All you need to do is ask the sellers to update the BIOS.

If you still have the empty 2TB HDD you can skip that 4TB and just get the 1TB solid state.

Ok imma trust your 1st recommended pc build and if I go based off that

Gigabyte Radeon RX 6800 XT 16 GB Video Card

AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 3.8 GHz 8-Core Processor

 

For these 2 they don't have a straight buy option does that mean its out of stock, not out yet, maybe not available where I am?

Also for this pc build would the monitor im using be recommended or should I look to buy a new one because I was thinking of getting a second monitor anyways.

ASUS VG248QE is the monitor im using right now and plan on using if you think it would be ok

Yeah your monitor is good.

Your next monitor should be better.

I recommend you look up these specs: IPS, 1440p, 144hz

Pretty much, you can ask for your local store when will it be available.

The Gigabyte Radeon can be swapped with the same RX6800 from another brand it will work the same.

Alternatively you can search for RTX3070 or RTX3080, get any brands available.

What would you recommend if I wanted to buy the pc now, and do you think the wait wouldn't be to long?
