Budget (including currency): 

Country: 

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

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):

Hi I'm I'm new at PC's and i looking for a good build. The PC is going to be used only for Stock trading and no gaming. I just want a full atx board not a micro. The basics that i have selected is a Intel Core i7-10700K, 32GB of Ram with a write speed of 3200MHz and an 1TB SSD with a read of 3500MB/s and a wirte if 3000MB/s the graphics card is a gefroce 1650 4GB or should i get the MSI GeForce GTX 1660 Super Ventus OC 6GB these are my only options and i wil be running 2 Dell P2419H 24" FHD IPS Monitors and windows 10 pro. What motherboard, psu, case, fans or cooling or anything else is needed for the build and what recommendations do you have? 

 

Thanks

Why would you need a high-end CPU and a discrete GPU just for stock trading? 

Corps aren't your friends. "Bottleneck calculators" are BS. Only suckers buy based on brand. It's your PC, do what makes you happy.  If your build meets your needs, you don't need anyone else to "rate" it for you. And talking about being part of a "master race" is cringe. Watch this space for further truths people need to hear.

Unless there's something about online stock trading I don't know, he's just watching a website refresh all day. His internet connection may make a difference but his processor and graphics card won't really.

I agree with the CPU part, but if my Father-in-law is any indication when it comes to stock trading then the OP's modest dual screen setup is only a starting point. It's all about getting the most information in front of you at one time. Think Tank's setup in "The Matrix", only stock prices and news... kinda trippy to look at. While you don't necessarily need a discrete GPU for that, having 3+ ports to plug those monitors into is a plus.

He said he only has two monitors. Even the cheapest "display adapter" GPU's have at least two video outs. If you really wanted the "Tank" setup then they still sell cards like the 7750 with six video outs expressly for this type of use case, pretty overpriced for what it is but still better than paying gaming GPU prices right now.  I don't see the point of spending on a 1650/1660S that's could be marked up to 2x their normal price right now for this. OP says they're his "only options" and it would be helpful to know why? @Jaco0107

The reason the 1650/1660 are my only option because I'm in South Africa and at my budget for a graphics card and the stock at the retail stores these are the only viable option at R7000 thats approximately 500$ US. What is an entire build you would recommend for running 24/7 and running multiple apps and multitasking whiteout issues

i5-10400 with integrated graphics and any compatible ATX board with at least two video outs, which I think is just about every compatible ATX board. 16GB RAM, whatever storage you want. 

 

Spending 2x the value of a 1660S or 3x the value of a 1650 for this is nuts IMO.

Thanks is it possible to have like 2 GT710 2Gb running together which gives you 4GB just like the 1650? And what PSU do i need like will 650w be good enough?

Two GPU's running together do not pool their memory, even when SLI was a thing. 

 

For your use case, I don't see why you would bother to build your own PC when basically any cheap general-use prebuilt from Dell, HP, Lenovo, etc. would do the job.
