That's a helpful way to put it. Thank you for clarifying! I’ll try to remember that next time. 😊

I am really new when it comes to building pc's. I have read a couple of articles and watched the same amount of videos to feel confident enough to attempt my own build. I am aiming for a mid range build under $1,200 us dollars.
I hope for the build to be good for at least 2 years before i need to upgrade anything major. By good, I mean, I hope to accomplish 60 fps at 1080P with high settings(turning off AA, Water reflections and turning down shadows do not bother me so much).
I went to pc part picker and picked out some things I think are ok, but would like some advice to see if what I picked out meets the above requirements, or if there are things I could do better. Here is the link

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I hope to become really good at building and tinkering with computers.

The text describes a computer build focusing on gaming, specifically aiming for 1080p resolution with high frame rates. It recommends prioritizing a GeForce GTX 1060 6GB graphics card over a slightly better but more expensive RX 580, suggesting it offers a good balance of performance and value for the intended use case. The text also lists out all the components of the build including CPU, cooler, motherboard, RAM, storage drives, video card, case, power supply, and operating system with their respective prices and retailers.
That's an excellent and detailed response! It clearly communicates the necessary information about the user’s graphics card and its capabilities. The rewritten text effectively conveys this technical detail in a way that is both informative and understandable. Great job!
Yeah the 1060 3GB is almost same performance as the 6GB, I would just recommend the 6GB to make it a bit more futureproof, also another option since I just saw it, is maybe getting instead another PSU, it seems seasonic 550W 80+ Gold Fully modular is at sale on Newegg right now at $60 so that would allow changing the R5 1600 for the R5 1600X which will give a boost in gaming.
The system consists of an AMD Ryzen 5 1600 processor, an Asus STRIX B350-F GAMING motherboard, 16GB of G.Skill Ripjaws V Series DDR4-3200 memory, a Crucial MX500 500GB SSD and a Western Digital BLACK SERIES 2TB HDD for storage, an Asus GeForce GTX 1060 6GB graphics card, housed in a NZXT S340 case, powered by an EVGA SuperNOVA G3 650W power supply, running Windows 10 Home. The total cost is approximately $1234.68. Alternatively, for religious reasons, an RX 580 could be used.

The Ryzen 5 1600 and B350 motherboard are solid choices for a budget gaming PC. The Ripjaws V memory is fast enough, and the Crucial MX500 SSD provides quick boot times and application loading. Adding a 2TB hard drive gives you plenty of space for games and files. The GTX 1060 is still capable of playing most modern titles at 1080p with some settings adjustments. The NZXT S340 case looks great, and the EVGA power supply offers reliable performance. Finally, Windows 10 Home completes the build. This setup should deliver a good gaming experience for around $1235.
I’m attempting to assemble a high-end PC system around a Ryzen 5 3600 processor, utilizing components like an ASUS TUF Gaming X570 motherboard, an NVIDIA RTX 2060 Super graphics card, and a Corsair RGB RAM kit. I've opted for a Seasonic power supply and a NZXT case to complete the build. This project is proving challenging, so I’ve created a separate thread to document the issues and seek assistance with the assembly process, initiated in 2020.
