Hey all,
My wife would love some help getting a good spec gaming rig for a mid range budget. She mainly plays FPS and would love to run the new ray traced Minecraft. Will be looking at a 1440p and 144hz monitor shortly after too. Or poss just stick to 1080p 144hz if that blows the budget.
I created the below as a starting point, but would love some expert help as I don’t really know what I’m doing. This is to not include the card, but would need to have a good enough PSU for the RTX 3070
thanks so much in advance
