Gaming PC Long-term build, First PC build
What you configured wouldn't even get 120fps in 1440p, and that Digital Storm build is very expensive for what it is.
What I configured below would be a strong 4K performer and a beast in 1440p.
I went with 13600K, but if you want to stay within $1800, 12600K is fine too, it's just 13600K is a beast of a gaming CPU. And go from 32GB to 16GB.
Last gen GPU prices now are still terrible, between 6900XT, 6950XT, 3080 12GB, and 7900 XT, the price differences are so small, so 7900XT beats all the rest. Or to stay within budget, go with 6900XT/6950 XT.
