overall looks good except corsair PSUs and razer .. everything is kinda not worth the price. Logitech is also not the best peripherals brand in price/quality category but not the worst (like razer and kingston hyperx). But if you don't care about the spent money the rig looks ok and will ... run.

river copper Mar 12, 2021, 2:56 AM

#

also, for gaming i would suggest a m.2 instead of a hard drive because it'll have faster speeds, and that means your games will open up faster, etc

#

and the cooler master case you are looking at, only comes with 2 fans, which isn't a huge deal, but that will not be enough airflow to cool your components, and you are also still missing a graphics card

swift galleon Mar 12, 2021, 2:58 AM

static pecan Mar 12, 2021, 11:48 PM

No. A GT 1030 is only good for giving a display output, not for gaming, and especially not for over $100. The GPU market is horrible right now so that's why the prices are sky high on every single card out there. Unless you want to overpay for lackluster performance, it's best just to wait awhile until the market stabilizes again

honestly, I don't want to do too much. I really just want to be entry level. I don't need the best graphics or the best looks. As long as it doesn't look pixelated or run slow really, I'll be fine

You'll need more than $160 if you want at least a semi-modern PC that can game, which is what I'm assuming you would mainly use the PC for

my friend has the same cpu and a 1050 ti and it's a bad gpu

they would be infinitely better

1050 TI is not bad it's just bottleneck from the CPU

Using 250gb 850 evo ssd and regular 500gb sata3 hdd.

They're similar but I'd definitely say the 3070, a bit more horsepower plus RTX which I take advantage of

There's also things like shadowplay and nvenc encoders on the 3070

You would go with the Ryzen 7 5800x to pair with the 3070 instead of the Ryzen 9 3900x? I’m mainly going to be using this to stream and game at the same time so trying to find what’s good to keep the quality and frames high

hey guys! i wanted to build a pc a long ago but i couldn´t because of the prices of gpus and cpus, so i bought an asus tuf gaming laptop that has a Ryzen 7 and an RTX 2060, 16 gigs of ram, 512 gigs ssd and a 120hz ips display for 1000 bucks, what do you think about it?
