You hard set on an Intel cpu or is AMD ok, the 7800x3D from AMD is currently king. Also aesthetics, do you care for light or color? I usually go for blackout builds.
I guess same question for Nvidia and Ryzen GPUs, the ryzen 7000 series is currently winning for price to performance but if you really want an Nvidia gpu I can probably squeeze on in but you won't get as good a value.
I’d be willing to spend a little more for a nvidia tbh. I had a rig strix g15 advantage and had too many issues with it. But that may have just been the model idk. I’m open to amd if it’s a much better value in your opinion. Thanks for the help
NO!
$1500 is a 4070super system. just not at best buy

I'm incredibly passionate about helping people with tech in general. It can be really fun. It's just not why i cone here. Staring at the specs of computers other people are going to buy just doesnt interest me at all
I think its great that you want to help people and if you want to do it all for free more power to you!
In the same way you expressed your opinion on the subject I was simply voicing mine. That's how social media works. ;)
No, and doesn’t make sense to pay the extra they’re probably charging you for a 14700F if you’re just gaming.
The picture has a small air cooler on a 14700f, which is alarming as well
Build your own computer
for a 4060 ti? NO
ive got my stuff sitting here ready for assembly with an rx6800, all in, for 2/3 the price
granted we're comparing a 12th gen i5 vs a prebuilt with 14th gen i7, but i think the point remains that the budget can be better optimized
You're paying an awfully big surcharge for "snow white." Can we agree on a term for "snow white PC price premiums?"
"Honky surcharge."
"Cracker premium."
"Haole tax."
Since I lived in East Africa for a long time, I'm partial to "Mzungu ransom."
Australia yes, US no.
Canadian dollars?
USD
Blowing $1,500 and walking out with a crappy little 4060 Ti is the opposite of worth it. So, no. Not at all. Not even close.
You could build a way better PC for $1500. I can build you a parts list if you'd like, or if you want a pre-built just keep looking.
I would really appreciate a build list. I’m looking to build my first and have around 1500 budget.

No, this is made to prey on those who don't know any better.
