I used to build PC's way back with the 486 machines and 256K max. video cards so I am like a newbie now. The last machine I built was with Asus SABERTOOTH 990FX
AMD 8150 CPU
16GB RAM
AMD RX580 GPU upgrade
Samsung 860 Evo 1TB upgrade
And I have been using it since and playing many different games including Warzone, WarCraft, Diablo lll, Witcher all the Halo games except the latest, Call of Duty and Tomb Raider for ones I have played in the past. All play really quite well.
I do work on photos as I am adding all our family pictures and documents to digital and enhancing them with with PaintShop Pro 2022.
I have been forced retired due to health and built my machine back in 2009-2011, but I am finding it is really way behind no and using it for a lot of graphics work, I need to get a new machine. But I'm not sure I want to build it myself or not?
Games, Internet (emails, MeWe and general knowledge searches) and Photos is a full day for me, since I can't get out on my own.
