is this a good budget pc build for $1196 cad

[hard aspen]

No no no

This is probably more than twice the performance

wait a minute... is that AI generated?

[warm crag]

i would have gone with B650/B850 instead (many B850 and B650 boards are sub-200CAD)

[celest ridge]

That’s AI yup

Like Jensen Huang says. Use AI then change it all yourself.

[warm crag]

i mean i told him in tech-chat yesterday that prices were stupid in that list, that 5600 is like 100 CAD less even new

[celest ridge]

When you’re working in that tight a budget 620 makes sense. 650 if you can price it in but can make a big difference to say a gpu that benefits more

It’s shit but that’s what the 620 is for tbh. Proper scraping budget builds

[warm crag]

i mean you still had 60CAD in budget vs his initial budget 🙂

and that 60 CAD brings you right up to the lowend B650/B850 space

[celest ridge]

Well I didn’t do the build but if you can do it for him, do it.

[hard aspen]

His initial budget included tax

[narrow garden]

i switched it now

[narrow garden]

yeah we have 12% tax

[narrow garden]

uhhh

[narrow garden]

[narrow garden]

[narrow garden]

[narrow garden]

[hard aspen]

Please don’t get this 😢

[narrow garden]

[narrow garden]

why

[hard aspen]

That CPU is worth half that price

[hard aspen]

Just look at this

here's the part list if you don't want to click the link

[narrow garden]

i didnt use that cpu thought

i picked the amd ryzen 5 5600

[subtle heart]

The 7600x would put you onto am5 and is generally better

[narrow garden]

Ok ✅

Thx

[hard aspen]

Oh you mean you already bought it?

[narrow garden]

no no sorry for the confusion

[narrow garden]

alr ima make a build with the am5

[subtle heart]

What's your budget

Is it able to push to 1400?

[narrow garden]

Edit to your liking, I suggest keeping the cpu and GPU unless you can find a 9060xt for a lower price or a 7500f or 7600 for a lower price than that 7600x, I'd say keep the psu as well but again, if you find a good rated PSU for a lower price then feel free to change it

Going micro atx, wifi motherboard, cheap but good SSD

All those stuff u can change to fit your budget, jus showing u what you can make out of it, and that's limiting the build to pcpartpicker

I'm sure u can find cheaper and better in other marketplaces

Also don't settle for a 8gb GPU in 2025 unless your budget really makes you
