Question 1

[JerrywB]

I've replaced pretty much every component at one time or another, but I've never completely built one from scratch. I'm not needed a beast, but want it to be better than what I have now. also I don't want to spend a fortune, plus I couldn't care less about RGB, since where my computer sits, you can't really see it anyways.

Currently I have i9 (11900 i think) and a 4060 ti with 1tb m2 nvme and another ssd and hdd totaling about 2.5 additional space, but 2gb total would probably be ok. I don't do above 1080p since I have several monitors of that design of varied response times, already here to use. What would be the best route and choice of components for ease of putting together, with at least a little room for upgrading ? psu and everything. I do have a plain jane generic case that was given to me, but if needed I can buy one also.

I've been mostly buying cheap old optiplexes and the like and upgrading them as much as I can, but' I'm tired of their proprietary and space limitations. thinking of maybe starting with 16gb and having a route to 32, or just start with 32 for memory if the cost isn't that much different. thatnks in advance for any and all suggestions. I do already have a 750 gold modular psu sitting around . if that would be powerful enough?

Please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:

SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment of time.

How to Ask for New Build or Upgrade Advice First off, respect where respect is due - this is an adaptation of the Animal's *How To Ask For New Build Advice* Sticky. I created this because there's a lot of posts nowadays asking for upgrade advice both on here and on the CPU forums, and I feel...

so the community can chime in with worth while suggestions. You state you have monitors laying around, perhaps a list of what you have access to would help us two fold.

32GB of ram is practically the norm for 2025+

750W is the advertised wattage of the unit while Gold is the advertised 80+ efficiency rating of the unit. What is the make and model of the unit and it's age? What sort of hardware did it power prior?
