Need assistance with selecting components?
When upgrading a gaming PC with new parts, focus around 30 to 40% of your overall budget on the graphics card. The 1650 model isn’t worth the price, so from that line I’d suggest aiming for at least 1660. There are good deals in the used market, but be mindful of the buyer-beholder rule. Are you targeting 1080p or 1440p resolution?
Sure, I'm okay with either option. My friend recommended a different setup, do you have any ideas about it?
Certainly, I understand keeping most items from Amazon. The version you referred to sounds suitable; I’d suggest it works well. If you need an upgrade, just let me know and I can recommend the graphics card you mentioned.
The PSU I mentioned above works much better. The 1660TI is overpriced compared to the 1660 Super since they do similar things. The A2000 is okay. Is this one stick? Then you're halving your bandwidth and it will lag significantly. The 3600X is a waste, but the board is decent.
the non x version is unnecessary unless it matches the price of the x model. the a2000 offers good value, while the 1660ti costs about fifty dollars more but performs similarly to a 1660 super. regarding the case, it seems to lack airflow entirely, though the focus g is acceptable.
