Hi, I need a PC for online college courses (construction management major) and home office work. Zero interest in gaming as I’m a console gamer. Also I’d like to be able to watch 4k Netflix and 4k YouTube content on it. I plan on using a 27” 4k monitor. Looking to get at least 3-4 years of use out of it. Budget is $750 not including monitor. I’m thinking this deal from Costco but I’m open to other recommendations.
Hey guys,
My gaming laptop has gone kaput recently and I'm thinking of replacing it with a handheld of some flavour (instead of dropping $1500+ for a gaming machine), however I'm not well versed in handheld specs and opinions on various forums and other sources swing wildly in favour of one handheld or the other. I was hoping y'all could help!
Here are the games I play regularly, or would like to play on my console:
I've been considering the following consoles (however if you have recommendations I would love to hear them!)
Steam Deck OLED 512GB
Pros:
Cons:
Rog Ally X
Pros:
Cons:
Legion Go
Pros:
Cons:
Based on what I'm looking to play is there one of the three you'd recommend over the others, or is there a handheld I've not seen that might serve me better? For either of the Windows consoles, I'll probably end up flashing Bazzite, Steam Fork, or just straight up installing Steam OS once it becomes available.
Many thanks!
Hi All - I just purchased this custom gaming PC from CyberpowerPC b/c the 5080/5090 GPU shortage is insane. Can you guys please comment on if this setup looks appropriate? I am a hardware novice (but not a total newbie). There were SO many options on their website - I'm afraid I may have messed something up. Too many fans? Is the cooling sufficient? MANY THANKS!!!
* It won't ship out until 2/20 it appears.
(FYI I have a prebuilt RTX 3080 with an i71200k that I bought EBAY refurbished 2 years ago. It would be cheaper to just buy a 5080 for $999 if they were available...So please feel free to comment on whether doing it this way makes sense versus waiting for a $999 5080 - seems like you have to be an assassin to get one at MSRP. At this price I could just buy a 5090 at MSRP and a new PSU :((((( sad times.).

Hello! I'd like some help from people way more knowledgeable than me on this issue. I'm on a budget, and actually I'm gonna buy a CPU, not build it from scratch, but I don't know which offer is the best. These are the options. I normally use the computer for programming and gaming. Also, I'd like something good that allows me to adapt to the times. You know, something that I can upgrade if required. Thank you for your help.

Hi, I'm spooked by the coming tarriffs and I want to get a new PC before the prices go way up. My current system works fine currently, so this is more future-proofing, something that I hope will last me 5+ years. I got my current desktop in 2020.

Hello guys,
I am considering purchasing the HP OMEN 25L GT15-0632nf PC, equipped with an AMD Ryzen 7 5700G, 32 GB of RAM, 1 TB SSD and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 8 GB.
I plan to use it mainly for games like Inzol, Until Dawn, TXM, GTA 5 & 6, Red Dead Redemption 2, etc.
My main question is: will this setup run these games on high settings without issue? I also wonder if this PC will last several years without requiring major upgrades. Thank you in advance for your advice!
I’m in the Netherlands. Buying a pre-built is much less of a hassle and isn’t that much more expensive AFAIK. My budget is €1000-1300, and I’m looking for something that is going to last me a while, and possibly even allows me to do some small upgrades here and there.
I found a pre-built that looks good, and I was wondering what you guys’ opinion on it is. I’ll provide the link and the specs at the bottom (in Dutch, but the specs remain the same):
Moederbord: B760 Chipset (1700 Socket, mATX) Processor: Intel i7 12700KF 12-cores - 3.6GHz (Turbo 5.0GHz) - 12th gen SSD (M2.0, NVMe): 1TB RAM: 32GB DDR4-3200 Mhz (2x 16GB) Videokaart: Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 12GB Behuizing: Gamdias Aura GC5 - (Breedte: 21cm x Hoogte: 45cm x Diepte: 37cm) Voeding: 650 Watt - 80+ BRONZE (hoge energie efficiëncy, energiebesparend)

We are planning to get a workstation for our lab to do some AI stuff. Need suggestions for pre built PCs with RTX 6000 Ada and a cpu that doesn't let it down. Preferably something that can be delivered in next couple of weeks. I tried searching around but couldn't find anything concrete. Any help is appreciated.
So I had an old dell AIO that died on me. Its time to new build but I am not sure how far to go. I do not play any games at all and just want this as a home computer. I do however have a Insta360X4 camera that takes 4k/8k video and want to make sure that I get something that can support the editing of that video. I should say that the editing is just family videos, nothing crazy, and leaving it overnight or something is not a problem. I am not looking for the highest end computer, but something that in 4-5 years I am not regretting that i didn't commit to better parts.
Can you please let me know what the minimum setup I should be looking at? Also, I would like to build something small because of space constraints (hence the old AIO)
Also, a laptop and monitor setup would be something that I am open to as well.
New build or upgrade? - New Build
i'm in the market for my first pc and i am way too confused by all the parts to build one myself. i've done some digging on this sub and in general, but a lot of the prebuilts people recommend are no longer in stock, and i would really love a link i can just click buy on lol. the absolute top of my budget is $2500, but from what i'm reading it sounds like ~1500 will probably be fine for what i need. my two main games are the sims 4 and fortnite, so i need something that will give me good graphics but also good fps speed. performance for the games is the most important thing for me since other than that i'll just be using it for basic stuff like netflix and emails. monitor recs while i'm here would also be appreciated, there is so much info out there that researching has just made me more confused. please help lol :)
Hi this is my first post here so I appreciate any help :) I am UK based [short version: I need help looking for a pre-built PC, full system requirements for game I want to play at the bottom of the post]
I bought Detroit: Become Human a few years ago but I’ve never been able to play it because my Dell laptop (that I still use) couldn’t handle it, and now my laptop is too old/slow/full of storage for me to see if I can get the game to work. I’m looking to replace my laptop anyway, and I do play a few other games on steam so I’m looking for my first gaming pc. Though I do want to point out that most of my games are on my switch, so I don’t necessarily need the fastest/best, just what will get the job done. Also, I know absolutely nothing about specs for PCs so I definitely want a pre-built one to make my choice a bit easier. I don’t have a very big desk so while the massive, curved monitors might be appealing to some it would just be in the way for me.
I’m trying to use the recommended specs for the game as a guide on what to look for but I’m still struggling to get my head around it all. Especially because the game is a few years old (I think nearly 5?) so the tech probably has been improved since then. Some of them are more obviously newer or better editions than others (for me at least). For example going off the logic that a higher number = better, then Intel Core i7-whatever will be better than the i5-2300 (minimum for the game), likewise for a higher number after the i5. But for Nividia GeForce GTX, is it safe to assume that RTX is the “newer” or “updated” version? When it comes to comparing the same brand with different numbers on the end, how different are they really? Basically this is just a long way of saying I have no clue and I really appreciate any comments.
Sorry for the long post, like I said it’s my first one here and I’m very confused haha. I just want a PC (possibly laptop) that meets the specifications for Detroit so I can play it and my other games. I know it won’t be cheap but any recommendations to help save even a little bit of money would be great!
P.S. These are full recommended system requirements for the game so no one has to look them up (if anyone is willing to translate this from tech expert to tech idiot I will be very happy): Windows 10 (64 bit) Processor: Intel Core i5-6600 @ 3.3GHz or AMD Ryzen 3 1300 X @ 3.4GHz Memory: 12GB of RAM Graphics: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 or AMD Radeon RX 580 with 4GB VRAM minimum (Support of Vulkan 1.1 required)
In the US, price range $1600. Preferably looking for a build with the 4070 super. Not sure on cpus so difficult to decide the worth of pcs I’ve seen, some examples of what I looked at:

I've been loving Marvel Rivals recently. My current pc can only run it at about 90 fps consistently. I got a 144Hz monitor for Christmas from my gf so I would love to play the game at higher fps. I'm thinking of giving away my current pc and buying a pre-built one off of Evetech. Which one would give me better performance?
Build 1:
AMD RYZEN 7 9700X (3.8GHz, 40MB Cache, 8x Cores, PCIe 5.0 Ready Turbo 5.5GHz+) CPU
MSI B650 AM5 DDR5 USB3.2 HDMI, AMD RYZEN Motherboard
GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER 12GB GDDR6X DX12 Graphics Card
32GB RGB DDR5 6000MHz High Performance RAM
1TB NVME SSD Ultra-Fast Solid State Drive
Windows 11 Pro (64-bit)
Gamdias AURA GL240 V2 Liquid Cooler
Gamdias KRATOS P1A-750G 750W Power Supply
EVETECH Reeve RGB Tempered Glass GAMING CASE
Integrated 8 CH High Definition Sound Card
Build 2:
AMD RYZEN 7 9700X (3.8GHz, 40MB Cache, 8x Cores, PCIe 5.0 Ready Turbo 5.5GHz+) CPU
MSI PRO B650-S WiFi AM5 DDR5 USB3.2 HDMI, AMD RYZEN Motherboard
AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT 20GB GDDR6X DX12 Graphics Card
32GB RGB DDR5 6000MHz High Performance RAM
1TB NVME SSD Ultra-Fast Solid State Drive
Windows 11 Pro (64-bit)
Gamdias CHIONE M4-420 Liquid Cooler
1000W 80 PLUS Power Supply
Gamdias Neso P1 RGB Tempered Glass GAMING CASE
Integrated 8 CH High Definition Sound Card
So first off, they cost about the same. Only a R3000 difference (160 dollar or 150 Euro)
The biggest difference in my eyes is the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER 12GB vs the AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT 20GB. I would obviously also want to know if these are even good PC's to buy, if the cooling systems are good enough, and the power supply is right for the job etc..
This doesn't have to be marvel rivals specific, I'm sure a ton of games will release in the next few years that I'd want to play. I just wanna know which build is best.
PowerSpec G718 Gaming PC AMD Ryzen 7 7700 3.8GHz Processor; NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB GDDR6; 32GB DDR5-6000 RAM; 1TB Solid State Drive
I purchased this PC from micro center for $1300.
Hi all and thanks in advance. In general just looking for a higher / very high end PC that can support both new AAA games at optimal settings + be able to run Stable Diffusion / AI chatbots locally. I haven't had a good PC in a great many years so perhaps don't quite know what I'm really looking for, but will try to provide the needed information below.
Before anyone goes asking me random questions, know that I’m completely new to all of this. Never owned a PC before, no idea what anything is, but I wanna get into gaming so I decided to come here for advice. Literally anything will help: PC suggestions, information, literally anything. Budget range is 1.5k-3kAUD (1-2kUSD) Thanks in advance!
I need to purchase a Dell Precision, Optiplex or possibly an XPS line because I can get a significant discount/pro support through a business I work with. With that purchasing help I can likely go up to $3,200
Because of my budget constraints I am hoping I can add more hardware as my budget permits.
32 gigs of ram minimum, but the ability to upgrade to 128 or more when funds allow.
A dedicated Nvidia GPU with 16 GB of VRAM
enough space for a second GPU like the nvidia 4090 when funds allow. (I do not know much about this beyond the fact that the motherboard would need a pci slot and space, the power supply will need to be able to power it.)
Thunderbolt 4 or the ability to install a thunderbolt card down the line.
Wired Ethernet. Do not need wifi adapter.,
Operating System: Windows 10 and 11 pro (be great if it could run linux dual boot)
Peripherals: I have 3 monitors, a keyboard etc. I will hold off upgrading those until later.
Location: USA. Yes I am near microcenter, but dell is important
I know nearly nothing about computers, I own a used HP potato of desktop and that's bout it. But I've saved up a good bit for a decent PC.

Is the I5 too dated? Are there better bangs for bucks out there? I know there are different options as to what’s best for everyone, but I am just looking for a solid build around $1,000 that I can play with my friends, prioritizing performance over graphics.
Thanks in advance guys.
