Building a PC Now? Here’s What You Need to Know About DDR5 Shortages

So I made the classic rookie mistake and tried building a PC right now. I’ve got everything except the RAM. Yeah, DDR5 is basically impossible to find these days. I spent hours hunting online and everywhere is either sold out or ridiculously priced. At first, I was super frustrated. I even considered returning all my parts and just waiting it out. But after thinking it through, I realized that ...

First PC : light gaming and art, looking into getting into editing and 3D in the future but it's not a priority

* New build or upgrade? New build * Existing parts/monitors to reuse? (List with models/links) None, but I have already chosen a monitor (cheap, image quality is not the most important thing to me : I already mostly do art on the ipad, and don't see a reason to switch for now). * PC purpose? (Gaming, editing, etc. List apps/games) A bit of gaming (Minecraft, maybe eventually some "friend...

Running 3 GTA 5 instances.

I was wondering how powerful a pc would need to be to run 3 separate copies of GTA5 (E&E) at the same time using 2 virtual machines. The memory requirement is easy: from what I could find, I would need at least 12 GB per vm (4 GB for os) and at least 315 GB memory total (105 GB per GTA). But what about the other specs ? How does a CPU or a GPU scale when running multiple instances ? The...

Told my gf I won't spend so much on tech next year and focus on my health so I went out and visited MicroCenter for the first time today.

Already spent waayyy too much building Plex server earlier in the year, hard drives are expensive, but I needed a refresh from the 3700x 2070 super from five years ago. New one is the 9800x3d b650-e 32gb combo deal with they're last in stock zotac 5080. I think this is my 5th personal build in my life, excluding friends and work builds. I wonder what my last will be like.

Help me build a micro atx or a mini atx build. First time building a pc and need something on the smaller side.

Im doing a new build or upgrade? and first one. I could kind of make something happen, but I get lost in the MB or power supply. Another big thing is sizes of the video card and such. I use it 75 percent for gaming 20 for internet and rest some cad and 3d printing, Oh also, if I could get a Zotac GPU that'd be great. My wife works there and get a small discount. * New build or upgrade? New * Ex...

Do they let you try pre builds in the store to see if they work?

It’ll be a 2 hour back and fourth trip to my micro center in order to pick up this pre build. I know they have help desks but i’m wondering if you can ask them to boot it up and see it works right out the bat? Yesterday I bought a ibuypower pre built from best buy and right out of the box it didn’t work. Nonstop windows crashes involving a black screen and the computer was corrupted I could...

New CPU/GPU and now I lag when I shoot in Tarkov Arena

So I upgraded from a 7 9700X to a 7 9800X3D and from a 3080ti to a 9070XT. Ive tried updating my drivers, resetting my bios and playing with my graphics settings. I now lag in tarkov arena dropping from like 150+fps to 10-20fps the moment I decide to shoot. Im currently master resetting my PC with a fresh install of windows.

Is it worth buying a new computer now before the prices continue to go up?

I don’t really know a ton about computers but I have seen that recently, the prices for RAM have skyrocketed. On top of that there is also the fact that NVIDIA will likely be cutting GPU production by 40% which will also increase the prices of that. For some background. My PC is an Alienware Aurora R9. It has an Intel I7-9700K 3.60Ghz. The GPU is a RTX 2060 Super. It has 16GB RAM, 256GB storag...
