Recommend a desktop PC?

[Thaco]

Juts buy a prebuilt like a dell, PC tech is going so damn slow, you could buy the lowest spec new pc and it'll still last you 5+years with what you're doing..., cheaper than your cellphone.

The first rule of PC build is more LEDs.



My windows snipper is acting weird on my new monitors.

ah yes, good point. I'm not a hardcore gamer, but it's nice to have the option to occasionally. Overwatch, GTA, that new Microsoft Flight sim looks cool.

Speaking of Flight sim, Microsoft released computer specs.

https://www.pcgamer.com/amp/microsof...-requirements/

CPU: Ryzen 7 Pro 2700X / Intel i7-9800X
GPU: Radeon VII / Nvidia RTX 2080
VRAM: 8GB
RAM: 32GB
HDD: 150GB (SSD recommended)
Bandwidth: 50 Mbps

Is this doable for around $1k?

[The_Rural_Juror]

The GPU is more than 1k sir.

[killramos]

Lol those GPU choices. Classic.

Thats going to be what, $4K by the time you add the main board, 1-2TB SSD and 1000watt PSU?

I think you could do it for just over 2k and 1tb ssd is kinda silly. 500 is lots or get a media drive. And 1k PSU is definitely not needed for a single 2080, a good 6-700W PSU is plenty

1k 2080 GPU, 420 for 3700x CPU, 250 for 32gb ram, 200 MOBO, 80 case, 150 psu, 100 for 500gb ssd.

2200$ plus tax, OS, and peripherals

Edit: I guess probably a cpu cooler, I think the 3700x doesn't come with one.

[The_Rural_Juror]

All of the Ryzens should come with a decent cooler.

Ahh. I think I was thinking of the thread rippers that don't ship with a cooler because your are expected to use your own

Guess I'll wait for the PS5/Xbox X version then.
