Hey, 

 

I've been planning for a new pc build. I'll mainly be using it for programming, i.e. in unreal or unity and in vs code, and also a bit of gaming (probably minecraft, rocket league and maybe cyberpunk). Any recommendations on what parts I should use

 

budget of 2500$

virginia usa

 

(NVIDIA gpu preferably)

Atleast a six core like a ryzen 5 3600 or ryzen 5 5600/x. For the GPU, atleast a rtx 2060. If you are able to get your hands on a 3060, it would be the best choice but it's difficult to find but you can try. If none of ampere cards are available, 2060 to 2080 super depending on your budget. You would probably know yourself better for storage and ram but 16 gigs 3200/3600 mhz ram. For motherboard, go for any 500 series board at a good deal. Any case which is high rated on newegg or amazon.

I should mention I have a budget of 2500$. Thanks for the suggestion, can a 3060 do 4k for 2 monitors? If so I'm interested, also I'm not an rgb fan, I like a clean setup so what do you think? also what monitors do you suggest?

 

edit: I read downkey's post after posting mine, live in Virginia, USA.

If you think I'm wrong, correct me. If I've offended you in some way tell me what it is and how I can correct it. I want to learn, and along the way one can make mistakes; Being wrong helps you learn what's right.
