First pc build
First pc build
I’ve always planned to upgrade my gaming PC every couple of years, but I recently decided to build one myself. Now that it’s assembled—though still waiting on a single component – I'm wondering if I might have overspent on some parts and whether I could have been more careful with the motherboard.
looks good.
Butf you could wait for the next NVIDIA series of GPUs and the next RYZEN 4th generation cpus,which will all be coming in this year.
RYZEN 4 is expected to come around september 2020,but the next nvidia 30xx series is expected to come in August.
So if you really need this rig right now,go for it its amazing.
But i recommend you wait 3-4 months for the new stuff

I generally agree with that, and if you’re looking at a 3000-series graphics card or something similar with a Gen 4 Ryzen processor that costs more, upgrading to a high-quality Gold power supply would be a good idea. Honestly, you probably don’t need an 850-watt PSU with a 2080 Ti either.
Thanks, yeah was searching partpicker trying to find parts and not sure if it’s been the COVID-19 thing for people to use the market for buying and re selling. But have been unlucky with some items and also with trying to get it asap because my computer went down. Ended up even buying a 1200 w platinum power supply just because I can get it quicker than the 850 lol it’s honestly a mess at the moment with returns but thank god for amazons return policy. The gpu I have a 2070 super ordered and a 2080 ti, also have a old 1660 ti. Should I just plan on returning the 2080 because of the new gpu is right around the corner might as well wait for 1300$ lol.
As for the Ryzen 4th gen, I don’t even really need the 3900 I don’t think all I do is gaming and was 400$ really good deal seemed like.
I’m really considering the type of display I'll use, as that can make a big difference. Right now, I’m stuck with an older IPS Panasonic TV – it's served me well—but it lacks 5.1 audio pass-through, and my receiver doesn’t either. That means I'm limited to Dolby Pro Logic II in games, and the panel’s dimmer IPS technology often results in a lot of black crush, forcing me to boost brightness within the game settings.
I’m hoping to upgrade eventually and am looking at some of the newer 48-inch OLEDs that are coming out. LG announced they’ll be available this month, and initially the price was around $1500, though it could drop to under $1200 by the holidays. Ideally, I’d like to snag one for under $1000 – many brands will be carrying them now. I might hold off until next year, though; it seems like a lot of the more affordable models won’t have UHD ATSC 3 tuners this year. Previously, I had a Sony XBR49X900E 49” with a VA panel, which was incredibly bright but often looked washed out in brighter scenes. I ended up returning it for a full refund.
The LG OLED48CXPUB 48” OLED supports HDMI 2.1 (though only up to 10 bits, due to the panel’s limitations), Freesync and G-Sync compatibility, a refresh rate between 40 and 120Hz, Dolby Atmos, HDR10, Dolby Vision, HGiG, and more.
