in the future you would want more ram and storage but thats a cheaper upgrade than replacing that 8gb gpu

#

also if you wanted to upgrade the gpu you would also need a psu upgrade but thats later down the line

swift pasture Nov 15, 2025, 11:59 PM

#

For your budget the above from Luna is going to be the best bang for your buck you can get. If you are able to stretch the budget at all you can get a more solid base for subsequent upgrades.

austere pulsar Nov 16, 2025, 12:00 AM

#

but right now i have 8gb vram and its working fine

swift pasture Nov 16, 2025, 12:02 AM

#

Most games will manage with 8gb VRAM, but more and more modern titles will require more than 8gb. Therefore when people spec for a new system here they will very rarely spec an 8gb VRAM card.

austere pulsar Nov 16, 2025, 12:05 AM

#

no this is what i have, forgot it was at my fathers place.

#

4gb vram 💀

swift pasture Nov 16, 2025, 12:06 AM

#

With your current budget then it might be worth spending the money on upgrading your current system rather than purchasing a new one. You will probably get a lot more bang for your buck.
This does not appear to be a PCS system though so I would recommend discussing this on an open forum such as Reddit or Tom's Hardware if you want to go down that route.

austere pulsar Nov 16, 2025, 12:07 AM

#

But the case i have is so small bro, nothing can fit in it

#

its prebuilt

#

and btw i only play cs2 so is 8gb vram not enough or what

hushed fulcrum Nov 16, 2025, 12:16 AM

#

So...you are saying that...
You are only playing CSGO2
Your current PC is playing it just fine

Why spend money on upgrades or a new PC then?

#

IF you wanted to venture into new games then I would highly suggest the build from luna above as your upgrade path for your current PC is limited and you would have to throw a considerable amount of cash at it to get it to a good level where you could just have gone for a new PC

austere pulsar Nov 16, 2025, 12:17 AM

And it overheats so much

#

This is the specs and it only has 4gb vram

Honestly, I'd go for luna's build

#

hmm, i dont know.

swift pasture Nov 16, 2025, 12:28 AM

#

With the budget you have, go for lunas build. If you can stretch the budget we can spec a more well rounded spec, but we’re not on commission to make you spend money with PCS, so it’s ultimately your decision.

austere pulsar Nov 16, 2025, 12:29 AM

#

i can stretch it a bit

hushed fulcrum Nov 16, 2025, 12:29 AM

Haha...if I was on comission then I would have killed it with this comment 🤣

if you’re just playing CSGO this will be fine, but the PSU gives you potential for upgrades down the line if you want to try more demanding titles.

austere pulsar Nov 18, 2025, 7:24 PM

#

#

what about the psu

haughty peak Nov 18, 2025, 7:25 PM

#

650w is fine for the 5060 ti if you wanted to upgrade the gpu in the future you would probably need to also upgrade the psu

austere pulsar Nov 18, 2025, 7:25 PM

#

Do u think that gpu can fit in the cabinet because its the 3 fan asus prime

haughty peak Nov 18, 2025, 7:26 PM

seems good to me you are paying a higher price for the 3 fan card compared to the 2 fan ones. the card will just be quieter vs the 2 fan ones. there wont be any performance gain

swift pasture Nov 18, 2025, 9:38 PM

Build looks solid, upping the budget gives you a more well rounded spec, have fun with it 🙂

Cut back on things if you want want to spend that much

haughty peak Nov 24, 2025, 7:02 PM

#

going from a 3 fan asus gpu to any of the others would save you almost 1000 kr

#

the oc really wont give you that much bonus performance

Is 5600mhz ram speed fine for a 1700k build with ryzen 7 7700X
