Posted May 13, 2021 A Friend and I are both wanting to get a mid range PC but we are both new to anything PC. All I would like to know if this is a good build for the price, and for 120/144hz refresh rate (I plan to get a used version of the GPU) Budget (including currency): $1500 or less Country: USA Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Battle Royale and Sandbox Games mostly and some Indie Titles Other details: This is the link to the list. https://newegg.io/11b67ad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First of all, get 16 gb of ram, no question about it. I'm not too fond of the case since it won't have great air flow, shouldn't be the end of the world though. And just so you know, the cpu has a cooler included that will handle it just fine, (wraith cooler), so no need for the cpu cooler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
