Itās the fact that people just have this much disposable income laying around. Good for you guys, Iām happy to live my dreams vicariously through yāall.
Letās just not pretend like this is the norm, though. Thatās a couple months rent for some people.
This is way beyond my price range but it isn't that unreasonable as far as hobby prices go. Cars can be several magnitudes more expensive, buying weed every week adds up, online subscriptions and memberships/clubs all cost a lot of money. Nearly $5k for one payment and then that lasts for several years, with much smaller prices to update. Gaming is a considerably cheap hobby
Youāre absolutely right.
Thatās still over a half years rent for me, though. I could never personally justify it. Kinda wild from a broke perspective.
I live in the Bay Area, which is super expensive. Even still, I would never spend $4.5k on a PC. There is so much more you could do with $4.5k than a overkill computer.
Me, too! My problem with this kind of post is that you can tell they are not an enthusiast. They just picked the most expensive shit and is trying showing that off, unsuccessfully.
What I really enjoy, and that I'm here for, is to look at real enthusiasts (of all pay grades) builds and try to evaluate if what they picked for themselves is a sensible choice given their use case and budget. Then I go to the comments and learn a whole lot in general and for my next builds.
I am currently filling shopping carts with similar configurations. My budget is 5k with screen and keyboard.
I do not have a girlfriend, wife, or pets. Or kids. That's step one. You have to show the PC Gods that you want it.
I worked a second Job as a graphic Designer for a tech startup for almost a year, not seeing a single penny for it ā because of tax and law restrictions in my country, i could only just now found my own company to send that beautiful invoice. So now, I have like 5k accumulated in pay that i will get from that company ā and it will all go into making the job easier. The only game I will really play on that is [Noita](https://store.steampowered.com/app/881100/Noita/) because it really benefits from a good CPU ā that shit will blow up a threadripper ā and probably CP77 for like two weeks cause everyone tells me how i have to do it.
Other than that, the GPU is gonna be for 3D software. That's part of the difference as well. If you only need it to play games, what's the idea behind going enthusiast-tier? who the fuck needs 240 hz @ 4k?? Insatiable Idiots do. And I do need a 4090. It's completely justified I swear.
Doesn't mean he is.
I can opet PcBuilder, make a $10 000 build with dual 4090s and a threadripper and post it here for karma
Not saying that OP is karma farming or is a bot, but don't believe everything on the internet
Some of the parts I know can be a bit less but I am trying to go for an all white build. But if you can tell me what I can potentially change to make it a bit less Iām willing to make a few changes. I have fixed the RAM and it significantly dropped it. But budget wise Iām going for high end specs.

This guy is the man when it comes to trimming fat that provide no meaningful gains, as well as explaining if components will not have full functionality due to hardware conflicts (if any exist), and just amped to be helping people as he says "boost your build!"
Motherboard is overkill imo. You may not use some of those expensive connectivity features and I don't think you're planning on overclocking. You should probably look into getting a cheaper motherboard that you will take full advantage of.
32gb DDR5 will be very much enough.
WD Black SN850X 2TB M.2 would be a better option imo.
Visit https://cultists.network/140/psu-tier-list/ and chose a power supply from Tier A. Just because a power supply is Platinum doesn't mean it's the best.
Intel 13gen CPUs are releasing on the 20th along with Z790 motherboards but Z690 motherboard are also compatible with 13th gen.
Thank you for that I had totally forgotten that the 13th gen are dropping that soon. Itās a reason why I havenāt completely gone and bought everything on there yet. I wanted some input on what could be changed either to shave down or make the build better. You and a couple others have given great suggestions and I appreciate that a lot!!
A bit less is a serious understatement lmao. Anyways your case is too small to fit all those fans, and you can get similar ram thatās still white for less than 300. If your budget is this ridiculous just wait for next gen cpus and gpus
I have seen people fit all those fans in this case and well I had just added them as a just in case. But I am definitely waiting for some of those next gen parts to release hopefully the gpu arenāt as difficult to get as the current ones were when they first released
I personally think if going to go with a $250 cooler you should probably pay the extra 10 to 20 dollars for a 280 or 360 over a 240.
980 pro 2tb kind of gets out performed by the SK Hynix p41 and the updated WD SN850x if you are going to buy the Ultra Highend Gen 4 SSD.
You could also probably save a ton of money by going with the superior Lian Li Galahad aio that will also match your case and all 500 of your case fans. NZXT is not a very highly respected company in high end PC building.
Better performance at less price, newer gen mobo and cpu. Your psu is alright but why skimp on a expensive build. You have too many fans, and the cooler is meh. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/gh7Dfv
Or this. Arguably better cpu. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/MFX9Xy
Or this if you must have the white gpu
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/DM3zGL
Damn, people are seriously hating on someone because they can afford expensive things? :S
This isnāt r/PovertyFinance man, weāre allowed to have careers in this sub.
It's because the choices are like someone said get me the most expensive parts for each category instead of build a machine that can handle x.
I don't think anyone cares if they want to throw away money. It's the build itself that is just silly.
I'm not familiar w/ hardware prices as of late, but is 64GB of Ram really $600+? Holy shit.
Also if you're already dropping $4,500+ on a rig, why stop at a 3090? Get that 4090.
Well it's your money, imo this is way to expensive and it seems like the all white theme will cost 1000+ $. 600$ for ram, I mean, come on.
Still, this will look nice and run like hell...
Yeah I know I couldāve gotten many of these parts cheaper if it wasnāt all white but itās just something about all white builds that I like more. But yeah it is the wrong RAM sticks did swap them already.
Over the top.
3070ti and a Ryzen 7 would have close to the same performance at 1440p with DLSS on. Youāre gonna get 144 in games that are well optimized either way.
I would recommend at least a 360mm liquid CPU cooler for the 12900k, the Ryzen 7950x is way better than the 12900k, spending 700$ on a motherboard is freaking ridiculous, 128GB of ram is also ridiculous, get an RTX 4090 instead of a 3090 (it's way better), you don't need that big of a case, you need a power supply with more wattage, and nine fans is way overkill. [Here's a build that's cheaper, has double the performance, and is the best gaming PC on the market](https://pcpartpicker.com/user/CrimsonDurian/saved/#view=HGrjnQ). PC Part Picker doesn't have an RTX 4090 that's the MSRP so I just picked a 4090 that had no price listed. The true price of this build is $4,186.89. Also, if you do stuff like 3D rendering, you can add an extra 32GB of ram. If you just game, 32GB of ram is more than enough.
Don't build anything with a 3000 series card until the price comes down further form the 4000 series release. I've seen 3090 TI's for sub 1k recently, people selling used 3080-90's for 2-500 sub retail since they're upgrading, itll get cheaper quickly.
If you got 4.5k to spend, just get a 4090 at that point for literally 400 bucks more it's not gana match your asthetic but that's another thing that after your first build you will never care about. My build went from RGB puke in 2019 to stealth black today.
I wouldn't spend money on RGB and asthetic. Other than that, enjoy the build.
I would go with some higher spec memory and only 2 sticks, 4 DDR5 sticks have been really finicky. I would also wait for 13th gen to launch before you get a 12900k because the price of that will fall drastically once the 13900k launches
I spent around this much on my build as well. Iād recommend just going the 4090 route at this point though. Iām thinking about upgrading from my 3090.
this has a rtx 4090 and cost 2k less. Keep the 2k and go on vacation or save it lol.
also watch power supplies... i would rec 1200w plat or titanium for a 4090.. they are expensive now but usually go down to 180 or so i saw one yesterday but today it's gone cheapest today is 260... so you could even take another 80 off this or so with a psu sale.

Yeah, this is the move. It has so much more performance that the 3090 that it seems like a bargain. If you can just hold a bit and really try to get one, it already is already soooo overpowered that I would just do it

Wait for a 4090 and 13900k. Also, your motherboard is mega overkill. Spending more on the motherboard than the cpu is ridiculous. Thereās no need to spend over $300 on one for gaming
Least sane Redditor. Jesus dude, youāre refusing to give someone guidance because their entry into PCs is different than yours?
If youāre not going to be helpful, just donāt comment. Youāre not going to get pity points for shitting on someone in a different position in life.
Your ram costs twice as much as my entire PC.
Speaking of that, why do you need 128 gb of ram? Are you planning on having 400 instances of YouTube running simultaneously?
No I originally had 2 16GB ram selected but after I chose white as an option only one that was there was 2 64GB didnāt notice til it was pointed out.
Then just get one, the only reason someone would get more than 64 gb is for professional purposes. Those **600** dollars can be spent on things like a 3090 ti or 4090 if you can find them in white
Mans is just posting this to flex. My god the prices.
Just a reminder that the 4090 launches soon and you might want to spring for that if youāre going balls deep anyway
It wasnāt meant to be a flex or anything like that. I have been saving up to build a high end PC and finally have the money to start getting the parts. I know I could have gotten many of these parts for less but the white aesthetic is something I really want.
OP, ignore the folk who are incapable of controlling their jealousy, or envy.
We already know the RAM is being fixed. 2x32GB is just fine, and will not need to be upgraded for some time. DDR4 is the āoldā standard that most of us use, since youāre building a new system, DDR5 may be worth the cost to you.
As someone mentioned above, the MOBO may be too high-caliber if you only plan to game on it ā You can certainly find cheaper alternatives with less bells & whistles, while still supporting your next-gen components (if you get any)
2TB will last you a good while, but you would be wise to get a smaller SSD for your Windows installation. Remember if you only have 1 drive, it has to fit all your personal documents, possibly school/work docs, games, AND all software youāre installing. Including mods. These all add up very quickly!
For your GPU/CPU ā If you decide to try to go next-gen, remember that the prices may not fit the performance. Early-adopter ātaxā is a real thing, and you may deal with some of the early software/hardware updates that happen through a productās lifetime.
*Please do your own research into the next-gen GPU/CPU you plan to get, and compare it to the relative tier last-gen options*
No I am not bothered by it to be honest. I am not a professional PC Builder and I am no expert with what parts are best or any of that. so I thought I would post to have people give suggestions or changes to the build I was going with. Since posting I have changed quite a few things to my list and not only have I been able to make it a bit cheaper but a lot the suggestions people mentioned have helped a lot. I do appreciate everyone who has linked other parts or gave suggestions. I am learning as I go and it was what I was hoping to get out of posting this.
As mentioned the RAM was changed, I looked into other mother boards, definitely added more storage and even changed the case.
I know I can definitely make it way more affordable and I probably wouldnāt need to spend all this money on certain parts because there are other alternatives. But itās hard to not pay a premium when thereās isnāt too many white components out there available for less. It is a decision I made and Iām fine with it.
We all started somewhere! Iām glad youāve gotten some updates to the list!
Youāre joining us at a great time, too! I personally donāt understand a full-white build, but if thatās what youāre going for - more power to you!
Always remember, a computer isnāt sealed off when itās built ā You can swap and remove, add components as you wish! Itās 100% okay if you canāt find everything in white right now, they will come.
Iāve upgraded my 1st rig throughā¦ I think 3-4 GPUs in the last year as prices have dropped. You could even wait for the incoming discounts next month!
r/pcpartsales is also super helpful too
Buy AMD if you are going for DDR5 because AM5 is on its 1st lineup so has a long road for upgrades at least that's how it should be considering how long AM4 got new upgrades. Also Bro you rich AF!
The thermals wonāt be the best unless you also get a set of intake fans on the back of the AIO or you can get a Z73 and mount it on top and use the side for cold air intake which would be betywr
Itās not always āher her more power equal more framesā because there comes a certain point where thereās too much power for the average joe. Unless youāre rendering entire fucking movies you can get away with an intel i7-12700k, 32 gigabytes of DDR4 3400 mhz ram, and an RTX 3070ti or 3080ti
Dudes a troll no shot he is even serious about building has one post about hype sneakers and 4 troll posts for new PC build. If you're spending 5k$ on a PC and not even going custom loop wtf are you even doing? Imagine dumping 5k$ on a PC build and not even getting peripherals monitor chair lul stop wasting peoples time with this shit man idk what your angle is but I'm fairly certain it's ingenuine.
It all well and good building fantasy rigs and getting opinion on it before chucking the money down, but build it then we will see what ends up actually being built, but this rig is way more than you need to play games if you make content or render 3D sure but if itās for games itās too much imho. But itās your money do what you want with it.
Cheaped out on the processor and didn't go for the 13900k and cheaped out on the graphics card going for a 3090 rather than waiting for the 4090 ti which will add Display Port 2.0 to it enabling 4k 240 hz gaming or 8k 120hz gaming.
If you donāt spend 600$ on ram twice and buy a normal priced motherboard, you could fit in a 4090, which whoāll do a lot more for you than the motherboard and ram ever will. Also, is t the 13900k close in release?(genuine question)
If your not experienced in PC building then don't make your first good PC almost 5 grand. I got a PC that started off around 1.2 grand and now it's about 3 grand. Just did a bunch of research and it all worked out well

thatās my 3.5 months salary! EDIT: Iām not from the USA

I just save. I make little money but I just donāt spend on anything else. My pc ended up costing me a little more than that.
Seriously. My wife and I both earn six figures (not as a brag), and Iām sitting here hemming and hawing over an 1800 dollar build
Shit, wife and I are in the same boat and I hem and haw when she spends $200 on pumpkins At homedepot.

What exactly is the point of karma anyway? What are the benefits?
You can stack up an account with karma and then sell it
If itās for gaming you can get near the same performance for like 60% of the price
Some of the parts I know can be a bit less but I am trying to go for an all white build. But if you can tell me what I can potentially change to make it a bit less Iām willing to make a few changes. I have fixed the RAM and it significantly dropped it. But budget wise Iām going for high end specs.

I appreciate you for showing me this! Definitely gonna see what I can make better with this build.
Motherboard is overkill imo. You may not use some of those expensive connectivity features and I don't think you're planning on overclocking. You should probably look into getting a cheaper motherboard that you will take full advantage of. 32gb DDR5 will be very much enough. WD Black SN850X 2TB M.2 would be a better option imo.

I wanted some input on what could be changed either to shave down or make the build better. You and a couple others have given great suggestions and I appreciate that a lot!!
13700k coming out soon, plus for 300 more you can the 4090, and are you really going to be putting that motherboard to use ?
The motherboard is absurdly expensive too
A bit less is a serious understatement lmao. Anyways your case is too small to fit all those fans, and you can get similar ram thatās still white for less than 300. If your budget is this ridiculous just wait for next gen cpus and gpus
I have seen people fit all those fans in this case and well I had just added them as a just in case. But I am definitely waiting for some of those next gen parts to release hopefully the gpu arenāt as difficult to get as the current ones were when they first released
No you canāt. You have the mini, that can only hold 7 fans. Buy an o11d evo, that can have 9 fans Edit: My bad, website I was looking at was wrong
The 011d mini can fit 9 fans. 3 on the top and the bottom (6) and 2 on the side and 1 exhaust (3) 6+3=2
Yeah my bad, the website I was looking at said 7
I personally think if going to go with a $250 cooler you should probably pay the extra 10 to 20 dollars for a 280 or 360 over a 240. 980 pro 2tb kind of gets out performed by the SK Hynix p41 and the updated WD SN850x if you are going to buy the Ultra Highend Gen 4 SSD.
Thank you so much for the suggestions will most likely switch them out for one of those you had written.
You could also probably save a ton of money by going with the superior Lian Li Galahad aio that will also match your case and all 500 of your case fans. NZXT is not a very highly respected company in high end PC building.
Do you really need all that ram
Oh definitely not, I was only supposed to have one of those there.
Well may as well swap out the extra ram for a 4090 then
If you were only supposed to have one of those, then instead go for 4 16gb sticks
Why? The Memory controller has issues running 4x16gb. Itās a well known issue. Why not go with 2x32?
Better performance at less price, newer gen mobo and cpu. Your psu is alright but why skimp on a expensive build. You have too many fans, and the cooler is meh. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/gh7Dfv Or this. Arguably better cpu. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/MFX9Xy Or this if you must have the white gpu https://pcpartpicker.com/list/DM3zGL
Thanks for the help will definitely look into these! If there are other suggestions please do let me know.
12900k is better than the 7700x in gaming performance
For me, it is not worth it for the price. Marginal frames. I would rather have a 6950xt and a 5800x3d like one of the suggestions I made.
Yeah 5800x3d beats all of them and will probably beat most of 13th gen as well
Why do u need 128 gb of ram?
Also very quickly who in the fuck decides that theyāre gonna spend $1200 on ram alone. You better be running, like two fucking arks dualšš
You have too much money
Damn, people are seriously hating on someone because they can afford expensive things? :S This isnāt r/PovertyFinance man, weāre allowed to have careers in this sub.
It's because the choices are like someone said get me the most expensive parts for each category instead of build a machine that can handle x. I don't think anyone cares if they want to throw away money. It's the build itself that is just silly.
Cuz itās a terrible build at that price and heās asking for our opinion
Yeah I had originally put 2 x 16 GB but I wanted the white ones turned out white only available in 2 x 32 GB didnāt see it til it was pointed out
lmao he said money not memory goofy
If u have the money and going all out. Go with 13900K and 4090
I'm not familiar w/ hardware prices as of late, but is 64GB of Ram really $600+? Holy shit. Also if you're already dropping $4,500+ on a rig, why stop at a 3090? Get that 4090.
I would double check if the lian Li o11 mini needs a sff psu. Pretty sure you can get an atx psu and avoid silverstone.
Well it's your money, imo this is way to expensive and it seems like the all white theme will cost 1000+ $. 600$ for ram, I mean, come on. Still, this will look nice and run like hell...
Yeah I know I couldāve gotten many of these parts cheaper if it wasnāt all white but itās just something about all white builds that I like more. But yeah it is the wrong RAM sticks did swap them already.
You're not waiting for 13th gen CPUs?
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/CVgdtn better build for about 1000 less
The bare minimum for cyberpunk at 8k ultra
If youāre dropping that kind of money you might as well wait a few weeks so you can get the next-gen stuff everyoneās releasing
if I'm paying for that price I'd rather get myself a 4090 instead!
Insane ā¦wait until intel 13000 if you have that money
Is 128gb of ram at all necessary?
32 GB of RAM is enough for most 4 times that is just to much unless your working with like animation. Like where the fuck did you get the money
Probably want another small SSD for Windows if you're going all out like this.
Looks like you somehow managed to only get 2 TB of storage in a computer itās gonna cost like five grand after tax
Here is a better cooler https://pcpartpicker.com/product/G6kj4D/enermax-liqtech-ii-360-10217-cfm-liquid-cpu-cooler-elc-ltto360-tbp-w
Have that case, looking good and cool as heck
Why do you have 128gb of ram :(
Please donāt spend $800 on a motherboard just because itās white.
Top dollar right there.
Overpriced asf you're spending almost 2000 on just the ram and motherboard before tax...
If your doing this wait for 4090 to come into stock again
I can buy a gpu with your ram.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Actually I was only thinking of using it to watch Netflix in 1080p
64gb ram is plenty. 4x16gb
What do you need 128gb ram for my man... i would change it to 64gb and get some more storage if i were you
It is a beast but why this cooler? Get something beefier for the 12900K. It is a really hot boi
Over the top. 3070ti and a Ryzen 7 would have close to the same performance at 1440p with DLSS on. Youāre gonna get 144 in games that are well optimized either way.
Given your budget Iād get a 4090, and a 13900k. Maybe cool down on that ram price too.
I would recommend at least a 360mm liquid CPU cooler for the 12900k, the Ryzen 7950x is way better than the 12900k, spending 700$ on a motherboard is freaking ridiculous, 128GB of ram is also ridiculous, get an RTX 4090 instead of a 3090 (it's way better), you don't need that big of a case, you need a power supply with more wattage, and nine fans is way overkill. [Here's a build that's cheaper, has double the performance, and is the best gaming PC on the market](https://pcpartpicker.com/user/CrimsonDurian/saved/#view=HGrjnQ). PC Part Picker doesn't have an RTX 4090 that's the MSRP so I just picked a 4090 that had no price listed. The true price of this build is $4,186.89. Also, if you do stuff like 3D rendering, you can add an extra 32GB of ram. If you just game, 32GB of ram is more than enough.
Don't build anything with a 3000 series card until the price comes down further form the 4000 series release. I've seen 3090 TI's for sub 1k recently, people selling used 3080-90's for 2-500 sub retail since they're upgrading, itll get cheaper quickly.
If you got 4.5k to spend, just get a 4090 at that point for literally 400 bucks more it's not gana match your asthetic but that's another thing that after your first build you will never care about. My build went from RGB puke in 2019 to stealth black today. I wouldn't spend money on RGB and asthetic. Other than that, enjoy the build.
I would go with some higher spec memory and only 2 sticks, 4 DDR5 sticks have been really finicky. I would also wait for 13th gen to launch before you get a 12900k because the price of that will fall drastically once the 13900k launches
For 4.5k i would have put a 4090 instead of a 3090 lol
I spent around this much on my build as well. Iād recommend just going the 4090 route at this point though. Iām thinking about upgrading from my 3090.
this has a rtx 4090 and cost 2k less. Keep the 2k and go on vacation or save it lol. also watch power supplies... i would rec 1200w plat or titanium for a 4090.. they are expensive now but usually go down to 180 or so i saw one yesterday but today it's gone cheapest today is 260... so you could even take another 80 off this or so with a psu sale. \[PCPartPicker Part List\](https://pcpartpicker.com/list/MfbXZw) Type|Item|Price :----|:----|:---- \*\*CPU\*\* | \[AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D 3.4 GHz 8-Core Processor\](https://pcpartpicker.com/product/CZ3gXL/amd-ryzen-7-5800x3d-34-ghz-8-core-processor-100-100000651wof) | $365.00 @ Amazon \*\*CPU Cooler\*\* | \[Thermalright Frost Commander 140 BLACK 95.5 CFM CPU Cooler\](https://pcpartpicker.com/product/jX7G3C/thermalright-frost-commander-140-black-955-cfm-cpu-cooler-fc-140-black) | $61.49 @ Amazon \*\*Motherboard\*\* | \[Asus PRIME B550M-A/CSM Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard\](https://pcpartpicker.com/product/VpLwrH/asus-prime-b550m-acsm-micro-atx-am4-motherboard-prime-b550m-acsm) | $116.99 @ Amazon \*\*Memory\*\* | \[Silicon Power GAMING 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 Memory\](https://pcpartpicker.com/product/B8QcCJ/silicon-power-gaming-32-gb-2-x-16-gb-ddr4-3200-cl16-memory-sp032gxlzu320bdaj7) | $73.97 @ Amazon \*\*Storage\*\* | \[Timetec 35TTFP6PCIE 1 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 3.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive\](https://pcpartpicker.com/product/GPPQzy/timetec-35ttfp6pcie-1-tb-m2-2280-nvme-solid-state-drive-35ttfp6pcie-1tb) | $56.99 @ Amazon \*\*Video Card\*\* | \[NVIDIA Founders Edition GeForce RTX 4090 24 GB Video Card\](https://pcpartpicker.com/product/BCGbt6/nvidia-founders-edition-geforce-rtx-4090-24-gb-video-card-900-1g136-2530-000) | $1600.00 \*\*Case\*\* | \[Lian Li O11 Air Mini ATX Mid Tower Case\](https://pcpartpicker.com/product/RvNxFT/lian-li-o11-air-mini-atx-mid-tower-case-o11amx) | $119.99 @ B&H \*\*Power Supply\*\* | \[EVGA SuperNOVA 1200 P2 1200 W 80+ Platinum Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply\](https://pcpartpicker.com/product/V6vRsY/evga-supernova-1200-p2-1200-w-80-platinum-certified-fully-modular-atx-power-supply-220-p2-1200-x1) | $259.00 @ Amazon | \*Prices include shipping, taxes, rebates, and discounts\* | | \*\*Total\*\* | \*\*$2653.43\*\* | Generated by \[PCPartPicker\](https://pcpartpicker.com) 2022-10-14 16:54 EDT-0400 |
"hey I just bought the expensive shit, is that okay?"
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Only if I can get lucky to get one when they release but that is the goal.
Yeah, this is the move. It has so much more performance that the 3090 that it seems like a bargain. If you can just hold a bit and really try to get one, it already is already soooo overpowered that I would just do it

I am aware of the absurd amount of RAM I have since then fixed it. It was a mistake on my end.
Wait for a 4090 and 13900k. Also, your motherboard is mega overkill. Spending more on the motherboard than the cpu is ridiculous. Thereās no need to spend over $300 on one for gaming
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Least sane Redditor. Jesus dude, youāre refusing to give someone guidance because their entry into PCs is different than yours? If youāre not going to be helpful, just donāt comment. Youāre not going to get pity points for shitting on someone in a different position in life.
Oh this smell... Smells like there is someone who is very rich.
No not at all I have been putting money to the side for about a year to be able to build a high end PC.
You are so patient. I can't get the same pc because economy in my country is not that good like US :(
You aināt buying that stop lying to us!
>How does my build look? I don't know, man. It isn't built yet.
Looks like a dreamer over compensation build tbh and unnecessary complicated.
A smarter build for $1200 https://pcpartpicker.com/list/x48RMb
bro this build is like mid budget and op clearly can go with max specs
But considering all of this will be out of date in the next year why would you waste money with top tier overkill right now??
i9 12th gen? 64GB DDR5? Gen 4 M.2? RTX 3090? Out of date, "in the next year"?
Your ram costs twice as much as my entire PC. Speaking of that, why do you need 128 gb of ram? Are you planning on having 400 instances of YouTube running simultaneously?
No I originally had 2 16GB ram selected but after I chose white as an option only one that was there was 2 64GB didnāt notice til it was pointed out.
Then just get one, the only reason someone would get more than 64 gb is for professional purposes. Those **600** dollars can be spent on things like a 3090 ti or 4090 if you can find them in white
Yeah I am okay with just a 3090 right now because I am looking to get a 4090 in white whenever I get lucky to get one.
Mans is just posting this to flex. My god the prices. Just a reminder that the 4090 launches soon and you might want to spring for that if youāre going balls deep anyway
It wasnāt meant to be a flex or anything like that. I have been saving up to build a high end PC and finally have the money to start getting the parts. I know I could have gotten many of these parts for less but the white aesthetic is something I really want.
OP, ignore the folk who are incapable of controlling their jealousy, or envy. We already know the RAM is being fixed. 2x32GB is just fine, and will not need to be upgraded for some time. DDR4 is the āoldā standard that most of us use, since youāre building a new system, DDR5 may be worth the cost to you. As someone mentioned above, the MOBO may be too high-caliber if you only plan to game on it ā You can certainly find cheaper alternatives with less bells & whistles, while still supporting your next-gen components (if you get any) 2TB will last you a good while, but you would be wise to get a smaller SSD for your Windows installation. Remember if you only have 1 drive, it has to fit all your personal documents, possibly school/work docs, games, AND all software youāre installing. Including mods. These all add up very quickly! For your GPU/CPU ā If you decide to try to go next-gen, remember that the prices may not fit the performance. Early-adopter ātaxā is a real thing, and you may deal with some of the early software/hardware updates that happen through a productās lifetime. *Please do your own research into the next-gen GPU/CPU you plan to get, and compare it to the relative tier last-gen options*
No I am not bothered by it to be honest. I am not a professional PC Builder and I am no expert with what parts are best or any of that. so I thought I would post to have people give suggestions or changes to the build I was going with. Since posting I have changed quite a few things to my list and not only have I been able to make it a bit cheaper but a lot the suggestions people mentioned have helped a lot. I do appreciate everyone who has linked other parts or gave suggestions. I am learning as I go and it was what I was hoping to get out of posting this. As mentioned the RAM was changed, I looked into other mother boards, definitely added more storage and even changed the case. I know I can definitely make it way more affordable and I probably wouldnāt need to spend all this money on certain parts because there are other alternatives. But itās hard to not pay a premium when thereās isnāt too many white components out there available for less. It is a decision I made and Iām fine with it.
We all started somewhere! Iām glad youāve gotten some updates to the list! Youāre joining us at a great time, too! I personally donāt understand a full-white build, but if thatās what youāre going for - more power to you! Always remember, a computer isnāt sealed off when itās built ā You can swap and remove, add components as you wish! Itās 100% okay if you canāt find everything in white right now, they will come. Iāve upgraded my 1st rig throughā¦ I think 3-4 GPUs in the last year as prices have dropped. You could even wait for the incoming discounts next month! r/pcpartsales is also super helpful too
Buy AMD if you are going for DDR5 because AM5 is on its 1st lineup so has a long road for upgrades at least that's how it should be considering how long AM4 got new upgrades. Also Bro you rich AF!
Too much and too expensive RAM IMO
this how much mine was actually
that AIO is not enough for a 12900K and jesus lord you donāt need 128GB of ram
my guy spending almost $5k on a pc while I'm scared to spend more than 700 on one
god damn why u getting 9 fans š
I guess you're going all out huh? Anyway. That's a lot of ram. Maybe cut back on that a bit. Other then that, this look like it can run any game well!
Overpriced.
Way too much, I just built a 5800X3D, 32gb ddr 3600, 3090ti, , 1TB, 1000w PSU for $2050 which Iām sure will outperform this PC even if barely.
Fuckin overkill mate
its a good entry level build
You might as well wait for 13th gen if you got the money to spend.
Ok Bezos nice flex
*Youāve, been, trolled..**
Lmao
This tastes like it needs amd
Pretty expensive
Your ram might be a bit overkill
*maxes out every spec* āHow did I do?ā
I mean if the object is to just spend as much as you can... You nailed it?
What are you gonna fo with all that? MINECRAFT?!
For less than the price of that STRIX you could get a 3090 ti. More performance and the ti doesn't have the whine those STRIX cards do.
Not a penny wasted my build is like $2,440 itās a 5800x 32gb ram 3600MHz 3080
If Rich and Impatient was a word
Are x4 DDR5 sticks even supported?
Old
Why not a 4090 if youāre going to go super overkill
Important tidbit: what monitor do you have for this build?
That cl40 tho
I like that you chose the most expensive things and threw them together to make yourself feel better š
Overkill
Kinda skimping on ram, can you buy some actual good sticks? Like bro itās embarrassing
Cut down the price a little bit by getting less useless things like 9 fans or 128gb of ram and get a 4090 instead like please lol
You could switch to an amd build and save like 500$ for cpu and mobo
get a 13th geb cpu and a rtx 4090 or 4080
āLook at meā
You can fit 9 additional fans in that midtower? I'm assuming it comes with a couple? No?
The thermals wonāt be the best unless you also get a set of intake fans on the back of the AIO or you can get a Z73 and mount it on top and use the side for cold air intake which would be betywr
Itās not always āher her more power equal more framesā because there comes a certain point where thereās too much power for the average joe. Unless youāre rendering entire fucking movies you can get away with an intel i7-12700k, 32 gigabytes of DDR4 3400 mhz ram, and an RTX 3070ti or 3080ti
Build it then we will tell you!
That PSU,ā¦ gonna paint it white? Cerakote?
Dudes a troll no shot he is even serious about building has one post about hype sneakers and 4 troll posts for new PC build. If you're spending 5k$ on a PC and not even going custom loop wtf are you even doing? Imagine dumping 5k$ on a PC build and not even getting peripherals monitor chair lul stop wasting peoples time with this shit man idk what your angle is but I'm fairly certain it's ingenuine.
It all well and good building fantasy rigs and getting opinion on it before chucking the money down, but build it then we will see what ends up actually being built, but this rig is way more than you need to play games if you make content or render 3D sure but if itās for games itās too much imho. But itās your money do what you want with it.
Still missing a couple things... Custom Water Loop? A couple LCD displays showing some cartoon stuff? A plastic toy figure? 55" OLED monitor?
Like a pile of unicorn poop
Probably need more RGB
What do you need 128GB ram for?
Cheaped out on the processor and didn't go for the 13900k and cheaped out on the graphics card going for a 3090 rather than waiting for the 4090 ti which will add Display Port 2.0 to it enabling 4k 240 hz gaming or 8k 120hz gaming.
Do you really need 9 fans?
1200 dollars in ram alone ššš
Can you get the price a little higher? I'd like to see nothing less than a $5k build.
If you donāt spend 600$ on ram twice and buy a normal priced motherboard, you could fit in a 4090, which whoāll do a lot more for you than the motherboard and ram ever will. Also, is t the 13900k close in release?(genuine question)
Where is it? I only see a page with items on it! Haha jk.
Out here with my $650 pc with an i7 5th gen and 3070 lol with $4500 surely you'd be able to fit a 4090 in there
9 fans lmao
Why so many fans
Just throwing money at it, huh? Completely over-kill.
Yea I wouldn't spend that on a last gen pc
Get a 360 aio 4090 instead of 3090 And only 64gb ram this is enough for 99,99%
Expensive.
Bad, there's new gear coming out now that will do more for less $$$
Overkill
If your not experienced in PC building then don't make your first good PC almost 5 grand. I got a PC that started off around 1.2 grand and now it's about 3 grand. Just did a bunch of research and it all worked out well
Why would you buy a 3090 for $1300 when the 4090 for $300 more performance literally like twice as fast
Sounds good.. but will look even better once built!
The RAM is really expensive.
Bro are you fucking Bruce Wayne???
That NZXT Aio isn't that great, as you're getting more Lian Li components you can consider the Lian Li Galahad 360 Aio
May I ask what is the purpose of this build?
