Hi, I’m new to PCs and I’m looking for a PC but no idea where to begin 😂

I’m looking for it to

  • Stream my Ps5 gameplay 1080p minimum.
    -edit videos
    -render videos
    -Occasionally do work stuff
    -run small games such as football manager

Looks wise, I like the white box type but don’t mind other cases either.

I have also no idea what else I would require such as ports etc🤣

Any help will go along way.

Budget is up to £1200 but more savings the better. It doesn’t have to be top of the range straight away as I’m new to it all.

Thanks in advance.

But I think he can get away with a 7800x3d considering it's more casual

Ehhhhh it's not terrible

quartz pollen
#

asthetics + performance is not the beat

#

best

heavy torrent
#

There's probably £100 for build fees and £100 for a genuine windows license so it's fine

#

Well spending £2000 on aesthetics would be absurd right?

quartz pollen

#

2 different opinions 😂

Eh just ask around obviously there is some bias here

my pc is good in peformance in general & looks good

It’s like I don’t want to commit it a really good Pc just sort want one to do the job to start if you get me 😂

Literally anything you can get away with, 1.2k is a lot of money to play with

slim flare
#

Also pickle with your build if I change to a case that hasn’t got fans on case already will that affect it ?

quartz pollen

pickle lmfao

The moderators changed my name because I said a jalapeno was a pickle

Ok

quartz pollen
slim flare
#

Just I like these cases

#

But if they don’t help with cooking I will look at others

heavy torrent
#

I won't be the one telling you how to spend your blood sweat n tears but £60 could get you somewhere in terms of performance

personally i love the h60 and h70 cases

#

Okay got you. Yeah them cases are nice as well

heavy torrent
#

If you need more gaming performance later you can drop a 5800x3d in the build and you should be set

#

You can always upgrade the GPU later down the line an 850w can even support a 4090

#

The case is genuinely brilliant for cooling options if you wanted an AIO in the future and yeah that's my advice for today

I didn't say that did I

Eh you can always upgrade the PSU in the Argos one and get a 5800x3d with a phantom spirit air cooler and that will do the job

Yeah if I do that case I won’t add any. Is it worth overclocking ? And might upgrade warranty as well

And overclocking isn't worth the hassle and voids warranty
