Question Need some advice on a new build

[sean1986]

Hey guys,

Planning on putting together a new system , and need some advice. Its been awhile since i've had a gaming PC, but want to get back into it.

I was thinking of going with a budget system like a ryzen 2600 with RX580 and 16GB. I could probably enjoy titles like modern warfare at decent frame-rates @1080P

Then I started to think maybe I should be stepping up my game a little bit if I really want to enjoy it, and be competitive against the masses.

with that said, what would you suggest? I plan to stay at 1080P, but dont want any hangs or slowdowns in my game play. is there even any point to have a 144hz monitor with less then 144 fps?

So with that said to achieve 144fps in modern warefare @ 1080P should I be looking at more of a ryzen 2600 / 3600 with rx5700 type system? any suggestions?

I could go either way with intel or AMD - whatever is more cost effective, and at this point i think its AMD forsure.

Thanks for any help.

For CPU if you are on a budget the Ryzen 2600 are on sale for like 120 USD which is a great deal.

For your GPU I would look at a GTX 1650 Super instead of a RX 580. Or in my opinion spend alittle more and get the GTX 1660 Super

If you want to step up a tier the RX 5700 or RXT 2060 Super both are good choices however the cards tend to beat one and another depending on the game.

1650 beats 580? dont think so...
