[BigChonker]

Budget (including currency): 3000AUD, can stretch a bit for Aesthetics and stuff

Country: Australia

On a side note, I don't have the time or experience to build the PC, so if you could use Dream PC or some other company that builds the PC for you, that would be preferable.

Is that the build you have right now or the one you are planning to get? If you are planning to get that build, I'd recommend you to change the gpu to the gaming trio plus version, add a 2tb hard drive (seagate barracuda which is like 67 aud), change the psu to a 650 80+ GOLD psu, change to a deepcool assassin III cpu cooler, and you have one heck of a pc. This price change will add like 200-250 aud but it's definitely worth it as it will significantly increase gaming performance and everything performance.

[BigChonker]

That's the build I'm planning, thanks. I might get a prebuilt tbh, any suggestions?

[BigChonker]

Unfortunately, there isn't a seagate barracuda

This price change will add like 200-250 aud but it's definitely worth it as it will significantly increase gaming performance and everything performance.

Double edited PC build, changed cases and instead of RGB fans I just got regular fans, as my new case has 2 preinstalled RGB fans, and I won't be looking at my PC that much anyway.

You forgot to add the 1tb hard drive option and I would advise you to get a better thermal paste solution, as it is 15 aud more than standard and it cools your cpu like 5 degrees celsius more than the standard paste. One needed change that will lower the price significantly is the choice of ram. No one needs 32 gb of ram unless you edit 4k videos, have 40 windows, not tabs open (I'm not kidding) and are a hardcore streamer. I repeat, you do not need 32 gbs of ram for playing valorant, minecraft, or pretty much any game that you play, as valorant and minecraft can run on only 4 gb of ram and an i3, which is like a potato pc. I play cyberpunk 2077 ray tracing and it does not even close to max my 16 gigs of ram. Make sure it is 3200 mhz 16gb of ram because if you get 3600 mhz, intel cpus don't benefit from anything above 3200 mhz so save your money and go for the 3200 mhz. Changes: Change thermal paste to noctua thermal paste, change ram from 32 gb to 16 gb 3200 mhz, and also add the seagate barracuda 1tb 7200 RPM hard drive. It's around 500 aud more than your budget, but In my humble opinion I think that it is the most important investment as it will increase your computer lifespan by at least a year and will add many frames per seconds versus your original computer build. Once you purchase this pc, you will have a beast of pc and a good looking one at that too.

I also want this PC to mine in my spare time, forgot to mention before.

You cannot mine on new gpus nowadays because nvidia has a built in software that lowers gpu performance when it detects mining, making miners less willing to purchase nvidia or AMD gpus to combat the shortage. let's just say that mining when nvidia restricts you is a real pain and won't get you far and you'll end up spending more on electricity bills than actually earning it by mining.

Still don't need 32 gb of ram. If you really want it, purchase the 32 gb option since the more ram the better! Honestly In my humble opinion I think that 32 gb is a waste  of money for the things you described, as you will never reach 90 percent ram on 16 gigs.

Thank YOU for patiently reading my long posts and listening to my advice for a good gaming pc. When you purchase it, let me know how it performed by quoting me on this exact same post!

I suggest you to get a custom pc parts and drive it to the local pc repair shop and pay a hundred usd fee because literally the whole custom pc with better specs than your current dreampc builder costs 2460 australian dollar versus paying 3500 australian dollar. The cpu is the same, the cooling is WAY better because it uses the most reliable and highest performing cpu cooler on the market (The noctua nh-d15), has better thermal paste (the thermal paste lasts for 8 years without needing to apply it again because you have to re apply every once in a while for normal thermal paste), has a trusted reliable msi motherboard with wifi, a better pre-overclocked insane asus TUF gaming oc with military grade parts, a 750 Watt 80+ gold power supply unit from corsair, the corsair 4000D airflow pc case, a 10,000 review noctua fan, 32 gb of G.skill trident z rgb ram, has crucial and seagate storage with a total of 2500 gigabytes compared to the 2000 gb on your current build, and the cooling will be monstrous because of the 6 fans in your pc. Every part is chosen because of value, performance, and reliability. I'll send you the parts list. Don't pay attention to the price there because the pc builder I used sometimes has weird prices that are nowhere near the price on a retail store. I calculated the price of the computer using best buy and adding the price in the cart.
