I've look at the computer part market, and it's very confusing, I know a thing or 2 about computers, but i haven't been up to date with the market recently, seeing a 350$ 3060 was eye opening, I'm just staring out, all I have is a release date Nintendo, and my phone, seeking for help, I'm lost and confused!! ❤️

1 usa Texas

3. gaming and music production (FL studio)
4. for the games like physics games, first person shooter games
5. don't know if 1440p is too much for the budget, but 1080 is good too
6. 1440p like 60 or 90 fps or even 120, 1080p like anything above 120 is good for me

Are you comfortable with a used GPU or new only?
300$ for a 7600 is wild
🖐️ 🤨 🖐️
Get the 5600 from AliExpress for 90$
And a used 2080 or something
Or just wait till the pricing gets better

pfft I don't mine doing all used if it means more performance

DEFINITELY LOOK AT USED GPUS
facebook marketplace has some legendary finds. i found a tuf 3060 for 175 and i bought my 3070 for 250 bucks
if you're willing to meet up with people its definitely the way to go
and it definitely doesn't have to be limited to gpu either, everything is fair game. you can find some insane deals out there

You could probably grab one of their bundle deals.
Though given your budget…
Jawa.gg is also worth checking out

Could get this with Microcenter's bundle deal and like a 2060 used from Jawa for around 700.
I said 319 for the bundle cause the base mobo is trash
Alternately could do the Intel 12700k bundle also for 319
But I agree with @stone copper and check FB marketplace for GPUs etc

But I agree with <@1200177528116097189> and check FB marketplace for GPUs etc
ive done it alot lately lmao
charred tide
That just seems like the best option for the budget. But Jawa.gg also a good option
Could get a 1080 or 2060 or 3050 on there comfortably with your budget, given the list I provided above.

Facebook market place is subjective, so it’s either you get good deals or not
stone copper
you definitely have to know your stuff around what you're buying, but i've never been led astray as long as i do my homework
charred tide
Yeah, though I’m not sure if that new is within budget
still robin
is AMD good or is it out of the question
Uhhhhh I think amd cpus are doing better and I like nvidia but honestly u should probably go with amd because like they are real frames unlike nvidia whose focused on like ai and ai frame generation etc etc I think amd is better price to performance wise but I don’t really check all that often u can do ur own research if u haven’t decided on anything
