Budget (including currency): $1000 US

Country: USA

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

Other details 

So from my PC  I'm going to be taking 64gb of DDR4 3600 and an Rx Vega 64,

 

I will be upgrading our Storage to the 4tb Solidigm NVME. A ddr4 1700 motherboard is required to fit my budget.

 

I'm going to be getting a better power supply as my current one killed my mobo and my ryzen 4750g,

which was a terrible eBay purchase in 2020  bad as the IGPU crashed under any form of load.

 

I'm hoping to set up a build similar to the one Linus made for the couples PC But with a i5 13500, hoping to divide the 6p cores evenly, but maintaining all 8e cores for my end, my wife does light gaming and YouTube mostly, and I do a lot of work in blender and the unity engine.

 

i was planning on my wife using the IGPU on the 13500, with pashrrough on an Rx 6500xt, 3pcores and 32gb of ram, for her general PC use, youtube, and her games like valorant, and genshin impact.

 

I would be using 3pcores 8e cores the Vega 64 and 32gb of ram, for blender and unity.

 

I have set up a VM before, but do not quite know how to achieve the couples PC dual VM that I have in mind and was wondering if anyone had any pro tips.

Have you tried turning it off and on again? Maybe Restart it?

Take everything I say with a grain of salt. I could be just about wrong as I am right.
