First Build!

Weeb65 · September 7, 2024

Budget (including currency): 2500$ USD (3000$ USD)

Country: Norway

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

1440p gaming, ocassional streaming

Other details:

Im gonna be playing on 180hz+ at 1440p, if were able to make the system also handle VR within the budget that would be a huge + but not a requirement

Hey!

Im looking to build my first computer from scratch! I have all the peripherals already but im sick of the prebuilt im currently using.

I have no idea what components would work well togheter, but i have been wanting to use a HYTE Y60 or similar case and i want to go for a kinda weeby aestetic, where i plan on adding an lcd on the corner of the case. I do value how the case turns out a lot and can glady expand my budget by an additional 500 USD to have a decent looking system wich will be sitting on the desk.

Any particular "weeby" aesthetic? Like is there a particular character you would want to focus on or?

I dont have an exact character in mind but i would prefer a white/blue ish theme where we could make an example using Rimuru (Reincarnated as a slime)

Well at least you have the budget to support the theme, though unfortunately there's not really any blue components, just white. Alot of the money being sunk into keeping that white color scheme. I'd look into getting some like prints or decals of the slime that you can add on afterwards at your leisure

As an aside, those numbers, 180+hz 1440p, are probably going to be next to impossible to push on alot of games unless they're like easier esports titles like LoL. Just keep that in mind.

Thank you so much! Currently i have 2 1440p monitors, and as long as the games run smoothly i really dont mind! Do you think this system is capable of running vr? Or would i have to upgrade some more if i want vr?

You could spend half as much for a VR capable system. This'll be fine
