I'm thinking of upgrading, which components should be up for replacement?

8 Upvotes

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/PCLgFG

Here's the current build, even if prices for the older components dont match what I paid for them.

Currently I really only play Rocket League and Minecraft very often. Otherwise it's a Twitch/Netflix/reddit machine.

I've been thinking of upgrading to a 4K monitor or 1400p ultrawide.(so I can sneak the current ultrawide into work and use it there)

With my basic knowledge of PC building I'm betting drastic upgrades to monitor resolution might warrant a GPU upgrade, but overall I don't know enough to spot what might bottleneck my system.

In the future I'd like to get into 3D modeling/rendering with Blender and maybe get some heavy-duty shader packs running in minecraft.

TL;DR: Well-used PC build seeks optimal component upgrades for higher performance.

Is this Gaming Laptop Good Value

4 Upvotes

I've been wanting to upgrade my laptop for a while for both gaming and work purposes. I'm in China and have found a laptop with the following specs, and want to know what you guys think of the specs in terms of value and futureproofing. I want to play total war: warhammer 3, the batman games, elden ring, and rdr2 if it can run it.

[disclaimer] I know gaming PC's are better in every way except portability, but for me this is non-negotiable. My resident status might change and I will not be able to take a PC with me.

i7-13650HX
RTX4070
2.5k/240hz
16inch screen

32GB RAM

1TB storage

The price is just under 850 USD.

What do you guys think?

Just built my first ever PC and I need opinions on whether or not this thing is gonna last me a while

4 Upvotes

So I just finished this PC back in the middle of May and it works fine. It includes an Asus TUF Gaming Z790 Pro Wifi Motherboard, Intel I9 13900K CPU, NZXT Kraken 360 Elite water CPU cooler, 64GB Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6400 Memory, 4TB Western Digital PCIe SSD storage, MSI 3080 12gb vram GPU, 1000w power supply, NZXT H9 flow case, and some other miscellaneous add-ons like mouse, keyboard, monitor, headphones, etc.

CPU temperatures stay pretty low usually around 27 degrees celsius ambient. The highest I’ve seen the CPU get to was 32 degrees celsius after playing Baldurs Gate 3 on a mix of high and ultra graphics settings for about 2-ish hours.

I spent a good chunk of money on this thing and I’m saving for a newer GPU, but I want to know if this thing will last me a good while, and If I should put my money towards other things instead.

Apologies in advance if this is difficult to read I’m mediocre at best with spelling and grammar, and I almost never post on forums or social media in general.

Custom Zalman Z11 Plus build.

4 Upvotes

Yo! I finished my first custom case which is Zalman Z11, in my opinion one of the best looking cases, even it's pretty old and some problems occurs like not fitting MoBo (I/O shield, too thick radiator from AiO cooling etc) I did manage to build it! Main goal was doing the side panel window for which I used non-scratch 3mm plexiglass, glued with Plexus MA300 and finished with high-temp silicone (actually my first idea was to use some sort of gasket but we're too impatient to wait for delivery), that was my first time putting silicone so I think it isn't looking that bad, there are some imperfections but only with really close look. Second goal was to use high-end "addons"? I mean... all fan have dust filter on it and are mounted with Noctua rubber pegs. For AiO radiator I was forced to use slim fans because the 2,5cm were too thick to fit in case or inside the top panel so I choose Noctua NF-A12x15 PWM chromax 2x which are placed above the radiator between the case and top panel. Then we got 3x Be Quiet! Pure Wings 2 120mm PWM fans, one on back, one on bottom and third on front. 2 Akasa Slimline PWM 80mmX10mm on the side panels also with dust filter. All fans are connected to Arctic PWM fan hub, the hub is connected to CPU_FAN on MoBo so whenever temps on CPU goes up all fans are running at faster speed. I wanted to have the build as clean as possible so first idea was to zero RGB but then I decided to use only white light which gives more "futuristic" look. There are 2 RGB stripes, one on the top and one on the left side of the case panel. I also bought some cheap 3.5' display from aliexpress, mostly to fill the design, even created custom theme for it. I'm still looking for some ideas how I could improve the case in any direction - airflow, new gadgets, for sure I plan to change all fans to Noctua (ah yes, the third goal was to have the case as quiet as possible), also thinking about some soundproof panel without raising the temperature inside.

Hey, so just about to build my first pc, I started with a budget of 1500$ but decided to double it! Please let me know what you think / any improvements!

Gpu: AMD rx 7900xtx (xfx speedster) CPU: i7-14700k Cooler: Deepcool LS720 se MoB: Msi pro Z790-a wifi SSD: Seagate cudafire 1tb (x2) Ram: Corsair vengeance 32gb (2x16) Power: Corsair RM850e Case: musetex atx midtower

Note: I was initially going to choose the 4070ti super but opted to for a 7900 xtx on sale! So about the same 1200cad price point! I chose and for the VRAM.

I also heard the 15th gen intels processors are coming out roughly feb but honestly the i7 should be over kill / didn’t want the i5 personally

Any comments appreciated! Thanks
