PC Building Recommendations?

[Apache]

Hi all, so I've been contemplating whether or not I should upgrade my pc components. I decided that I am but when it comes to the savy part of pc building, I have no clue where to start. The specs I'm looking for is to run games "smoothly" like microsoft flight simulator, call of duty, battlefield, and a few other MMOs. At this moment, I don't have a budget so any recommendations please shoot them my way.

Respectfully,
Champ

- AMD Ryzen 7 3700X
- RTX 3070 or 80 (When it comes out)
- 16 Gigs of 3200 mhz speed.
- Motherboard doesn't really matter
- Power Supply 550 watt +

I dont think he means a top tier setup, you dont need that to play those games, probably could run good with ryzen 7/i7 & 1070 with 16gb of ram

You just said the same as me only changed the gpu. xD, I would however buy a ''newer'' gpu to play games high end games of the future.

3070 is overkill for that. I run gta at 30 fps with only a ryzen 5 2600 and a 1050 ti 4gb with 8gb of ram

Microsoft Flight Sim running on a 3700x and 1070?

besides that, I dont know about that but I do know a guy who plays it on a 5 year old GPU

If you have 30fps, you're fine on MSFS.

If you have 30fps, you're fine on MSFS.

yeah I cant handle anything under 30 fps average

 

[ajl]

You do release the 3070 is about the same price as the 1070 ti? If its better it doesn't mean its more expensive..

fr? dude isnt the 2080 like $2k or is that only the deluxe

 

[ajl]

3070 starts at $499

1070 Buy used:$463.22

TIL

Why would he get a 1070 over a 3070, the 3070 is literally gonna outperform the 2080ti for like 150$ more than a 1070

yeah i didnt know the price.

Kinda a pricey build but worth it:

I9-9900KF (Cheaper than the K, only difference is no onboard video which isn't needed tbh)
32gb RAM (honestly 32gb is becoming the minimum for a lot, for streaming, gta v and other games i highly suggest no lower than 32gb)
1660 TI - not the best GPU, but honestly I play many games with no issues

I also have 11TB of storage but thats optional lol i spent around $1500 on this all

Thank you for all the suggestions so far, I'll be taking note to do further research.[DOUBLEPOST=1599786330][/DOUBLEPOST]

Promotional link, not a gift link. This doesn't stack, so if you're thinking about buying keep that in mind. Also, in order to redeem the code, you need have a payment method on file with discord.

Why, 11TB?!

To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if someone had 11TB of hard drive space. I have a plex media server with tons of movies, shows, podcasts, etc. which at the moment takes up around 4TB. I'm nowhere even close to having a satisfied collection.

Why, 11TB?!

YouTuber, video editor and I play lots of games xD I have old youtube videos from 5 years ago, love going back and watching my old videos and comparing how much i've improved.

bruh why tf would you spend 700$ on a gpu and not be able to afford 3600mhz ram which makes infiinity fabric run faster...[DOUBLEPOST=1599797933][/DOUBLEPOST]

1.) Your cpu is being bottlenecked by the gpu
2.) 16gb is more than enough nowadays
3.) 11 TB is way too much, you can barely even get close to 3-4TB unless you hardcore record and save all your videos over a span of 2-3 years[DOUBLEPOST=1599797956][/DOUBLEPOST]

Never take NVIDIA's word for granted[DOUBLEPOST=1599798017][/DOUBLEPOST]

yes because 30 fps is so good. With 360hz monitors coming out and people that play 1440p at 240hz I don't see a reason why not to get the 3000 series.
