my first gaming pc

[mr. not_boby_duke]

Budget (including currency):  1000$ USD

Country: united states of America

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

mainly gaming like Minecraft and cod (Call of Duty)

Monitors

I plan to have one monitor for now and upgrade to two later down the line

Peripherals

I do need a monitor and a keyboard I would prefer to get a new mouse but I have one that can work

Why are you upgrading

I am coming  from an old Cardboard school laptop is really slow

Other details

I prefer a black case I'm willing to go over by my budget and I am planning to buy other parts a month or two from now. I am also fine with just a hard drive at the beginning and upgrading later. I do want m.2 support so I can put that in later as well. I'm fine with AMD or Intel whichever one is cheaper. I did try to already make the PC on my own so I'm gonna link that so you can kind of see what I want. if you wont to you can critique my build but I am traying to ask you to build me one thank you.

This isnt very well balanced. Downgrade the processor to a 11400 or a 3600 and go for a better gpu.

Don't forget the motherboard. That deserves an upgrade too. Try going for intel to use integrated graphics if you don't have a graphics card and if you want a graphics card now, just get a prebuilt.

I have made couple changes and increased your budget for a bit. You get better monitor way better graphics card better PSU M2SSd for system and second SSD for saving files. Did not change your PC  case that you should change, you should go for better airflow PC case

think you forgot to paste

Agreed. Quite honestly, I can't really recommend custom pcs right now. Prebuilts have gpus. Lol

Thanks Dave.

 

Anyway yeah, that build is massively unbalanced, just like average big box store custom build.

If you dont wanna wait for market to go sane again, and atleast able to use your PC for the basic, i highly recommend switching to Intel Core i5 10400 with the cheapest B460M available.

CPU and motherboard are compatible, pcpartpicker just gives you the warning because some boards are sold with very old bioses

Where did you find 3060 for 329$ when its out of stock and price is https://www.newegg.com/asus-geforce-rtx-3060-tuf-rtx3060-o12g-gaming/p/N82E16814126491

I just put the MSRP for sanity sake, i know a lot of RTX AIBs have around 5-10% markup from the FE MSRP. Hence why i say a lot of shit about "when stock is normal"
