I am doing a new build and have been purchasing items as I have seen them on sale. Please help me to make sure everything is compatible and this will be a good/reliable plug and play build that will (hopefully) last for years to come. I do know that I will need to update the BIOS on my motherboard to be compatible with the CPU (both have already been purchased). I have read up on it and it looks easy enough to do (the motherboard has a button to make it easy). I have tried to follow the format posted in the forum sticky and have posted a pcpartpicker.com link and a link to one item that did not show up on their website that I have already purchased. Thank you in advance for your help!
Approximate Purchase Date: Some items have already been purchased, remainder will be purchased when I get paid this coming week.
Budget Range: $2,500 total. Under 1k for the Items that I have left to purchase.
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming
Are you buying a monitor: No
Parts to Upgrade: New build, I have purchased some of thie items over the last couple of months as I found them on sale, so I will be limited on the build by the already purchased items.
Do you need to buy OS: Yes, I need to buy an OS
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: New Egg/Amazon, but will purchase from any reputable US-based business.
Location: Parkersburg, WV USA
Parts Preferences: Already purchased AMD CPU
Overclocking: Maybe if it is simple with software that is point and click, otherwise, no.
SLI or Crossfire: No
Your Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080
Additional Comments: Games that I have been playing recently have been New World, Outriders and I still play Diablo 3 from time to time...don't judge me I would like this pc to last another 7+ years if possible.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: My computer that I build 7 years ago is having trouble keeping up with the newer games.
Below is a link to the PC Part Picker List. The power supply that I already purchased did not come up on the list, so I hope it is compatible with the rest of the hardware that I purchased.
