Uhhh so $700 USD budget, no more.
I would like this

-at least 1 TB NVMe
-at least 16 GB
-at least ddr4
-at least 6 cores (AMD only, at least Ryzen 5 and 3000 series)
-at least 8 GB vRAM (AMD only, no older than Radeon RX 5000)
-I don't want a huge bulky case ATX is max I'd say

I hope to play FFXV via Proton and CS2 at least 1080p low or med and 60+fps on this thing. Is that too much? Do I need to save and extend my budget? I know a lot about PC stuff, but I wanna hear from the people who know how to save 👍

and you probly can spend a bit more on cpu or gpu or get faster ram since Cezanne cpu can take advantage of faster ram as in higher then 3800

I will look into it. Thanks!

The EVGA W1 is a bomb btw

@mint hamlet @nocturne quarry do y'all think that these will go down for Black Friday? Just wondering how much I can save

mint hamlet
#

yes?

nocturne quarry
#

Probably, hard to tell though how much you’d save though

covert wasp
#

I ask because starting off, I may just connect the PC to the power strip beside the living room TV. Depending on how good Black Friday sales are, I may try saving for a monitor.

Oh okay. I changed to 6500xt to a 6600, and rn, it says rated at 296W

#

Is the estimate accurate?

nocturne quarry
#

Yes

#

But thats not accounting for transient spikes

Near microcenter?

covert wasp
#

The nearest Microcenter is like 700 miles away

#

I modified the list that @nocturne quarry sent

little adder
#

Send it

#

Let me see

covert wasp
#

But jjtb7's list had a bad PSU

#

oh okay

little adder

#

And I don't have to pay as much, but I get 32 GB RAM instead of 16

little adder
#

I dont really like that list lol

covert wasp
#

Did you read the PC budget?

#

$700

little adder
#

You can still do better

covert wasp
#

I'd rather have AMD only

little adder
#

You're getting the same performance for 30 less

covert wasp
#

Linux

#

Particularly HoloISO

little adder
#

Get a used 3600

#

Get 6650xt if you dont wanna spend that much

covert wasp
#

Is a stock cooler good enough for games like FFXV and CS2 on a Ryzen 5600 and a Radeon RX 6600?
(no bias pls, just curious)

#

I'll be at 1080p only
