Fairly minor changes that increase the price, but also increase the value and open the door a little more for future potential. Case CORSAIR 4000D AIRFLOW TEMPERED GLASS GAMING CASE Processor (CPU) AMD Ryzen 5 5600G Six Core CPU with Radeon™ Graphics (3.9GHz-4.4GHz/19MB CACHE/AM4) Motherboard...

This is where you would want to start with a system that could be upgraded. Note, there are a couple of corners cut so I will follow up with what I would tend to recommend if the budget could be expanded upon again. I genuinely wouldn't recommend anything lower than this and would be more...

Sorry for the OT, just wanted to chime in with a little further insight into this and rather than keep it personal thought it may be of interest to the op and possibly others. With the FE cards Jayz 2 Cents did a bit on the heat of the memory on the cards as stock. They found that using better...

Not a lot I can say really. I'll take a stab at it, not that it'll be worth much to you. There was nothing tangible in it between the 2 of them. They pretty much traded blows within margin of error. They were both OC.... which isn't what we would recommend on AMD as AMD tends to run better in...

If you are referring to the AMD vs Intel thread, that was the previous generation of AMD. The current generation of AMD (Which is the 5000 series) beats Intel in every metric. The release date that you are quoting came and went last October with the release of the 5000 series chips, more...

Which 4th gen? Zen 4 is a while away yet. Zen 3 is getting ready for TR but has been available in AM4 for a while now.

I would definitely re-think the entire build to be honest. It's not very well thought out for your uses and is using older technology.

There's a number of changes to be made, but also a number of queries that would need clarified before knowing how to guide you best. There's a good collaboration of info linked below to help out. Pay special attention to the criteria regarding what we need to know from you to give the most...

I could be wrong but I'm fairly certain that's a soldered in chip. With that in mind the only sensible upgrade would be a replacement board with the chip/gpu in place. That's only sensible from a practicality stand point though as financially it's a non-starter IMO. Best way to upgrade is to...

@Hubert2005 I appreciate this is new for you but can you please be a bit more patient and concise with your responses please. You are asking for help on a very helpful forum where people will always rally round and get you the absolute best system for your money. This takes time and effort from...

FYI, as much as we will happily discuss the core of the build you have listed, we won't be offering advice on competitors systems or self builds. No rules broken, just a reminder that this forum is owned by PCS and is here for supporting PCS customers and potential customers.

Some of you may know that I've had an inkling to get myself a Vinyl setup for a little while. I've been nipping @SpyderTracks ear on more than one occasion and on Monday I finally got the ball rolling properly. I wanted to keep within the realms of sanity budget wise, I had planned a couple of...
