Toromi posted:If you've already got a video card, you could put together something decent for far less than 2000$ (so long as you're comfortable building your own system). The 8-core 5800x paired with 32GB of 3600MT/s memory and a MSI B550-A PRO motherboard (reputable, quality board) would run you under 400$, although if you want to be able to upgrade the CPU within the next few years then I'd suggest paying out a bit more for AMD's AM5 platform instead (7000 series CPUs), as that platform is guaranteed support until minimum 2025. As far as CPU coolers go, the Arctic Liquid Freezer 280mm (110$) is one of the best solutions short of custom loop. In terms of storage, it's easy enough to transplant your old drives, but if you're looking to expand or upgrade to something faster then there are a myriad of quality NVMe SSDs at great prices, such as the SN770 (50$ for 1TB, very fast Gen 4.0 drive). For the power supply I'd suggest the Corsair RM750e, as it's a reputable brand, good efficiency rating and fully modular, meaning you only have to deal with the cables you need and there's no excess spaghetti to stuff away in some empty drive bay. Lastly, for the case you can really shop around by subjective preference (although they almost all look the same at this point), but my go-to performance case is the Lian Li Lancool 216, known for reasonable build quality and top tier airflow. Every part I've mentioned here would amount to ~740$ USD, lowest prices aggregated via PCPartPicker. thank you for the advice, I'll take a look at this.  Seems right about what I'm looking for
