Need a Gaming PC

[andrewthegreatx]

I've been trying to make a gaming pc build that looks amazing (to top all of my friends gaming computers), has rgb, pretty sick case, and nice components inside. My budget is about $3000-$5000. I'm having trouble on making everything match inside or have good rgb. Please help!

This is not what you call an appropriate or wise use of money. That's enough for a car.

Yes, I am well aware of that.

Hello!

If you are a bit lost about how to set up RGB lighting in your case, then check out my guide on the different solutions by the different brands for Fan & RGB control!

 

And here's the PC you asked for

Ofcourse you are not restricted to the Corsair 360mm AIO and Corsair fans. If you prefer the NZXT or Thermaltake products, then go for that

Will you be doing any streaming or recording?

Get a cool RGB case with a GTX 1080 ti and the Best 8 core Ryzen you can buy.

If he's only playing games, a 8 core Ryzen would be worse than a 8700K.

Yea I know but if he'll be streaming an 8 core would be great.

If you aren't streaming get a 6 core because you can use it for other stuff and game that make use of multiple cores.

You can't exactly assume he's streaming as not that many people do that...

Ok, so an 8 core is a bit much if he's not streaming but it'll be good if you suddenly want to stream or do things that make use of spare cores.

If you're going that deep, wouldn't searching out a boutique builder make the most sense?

If he's going that far for a system, he can probably afford a small budget system + capture card to handle the stream.

But with a budget of around $3000 he could just build a really good single system with a really powerful CPU and GPU.
