White PC build

Eliquin · January 19, 2024

Budget (including currency): $1200-1500 USD

Country: US

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Arknights, Genshin Impact, Honkai Star rails, Azur lane and will also planning to play valorant, league, tekken 8, persona 3 reload.

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc):

She have a M32U 4k 144hz. She have a PS5 and a switch. Planning to order parts this weekend or next week.

Hi my friend here is asking for a PC and I do not know what parts would be best for her. I can build the PC and setup everything for her but I am not entirely sure what would be the best parts for her budget. Not sure if the budget would be enough for 4k but I am guessing it will because the games she plays doesn't require that much not sure about tekken or persona reload because those are new games. She wanted to have a white PC and so that it matches her switch. Thanks for anyone who can help me!

Something like this would work for the games she wants to play and at 4k. White themed builds can be a little tricky, usually the parts are more expensive and some stuff is less available. So keep that in mind. Also, you could go for a slightly cheaper CPU and bump it up to a 7800XT of the same model and still come in below $1500.

Okay thank you. I probably convince her to just bump it up to $50 if she really wants the white, and get https://pcpartpicker.com/product/nh26Mp/sapphire-pure-radeon-rx-7800-xt-16-gb-video-card-11330-03-20g.

7800XT in white compared to a white 7700XT is a $100 difference minimum. But yeah, whatever she wants to do. Also keep in mind that PCpartpicker pricing is prior to tax and shipping. So it will be more when you actually go to place the order.
