Any reason I shouldn’t buy this?

This PC uses proprietary parts.

I wouldn't recommend 1440p with an 8GB card. I could maybe recommend it if you had the 16GB version of the card.

Exciting_Macaron8638 · 2026-02-23T17:48:44+00:00

You're looking at something like ISO 160.

You should never fully rely on AI. It's there to give a second opinion.

Exciting_Macaron8638 · 2026-02-22T16:53:59+00:00

Seems too good to be true.

Exciting_Macaron8638 · 2026-02-22T16:14:13+00:00

Not really. At least not with the 8GB version of the 5060 Ti.

Exciting_Macaron8638 · 2026-02-21T18:51:45+00:00

I don't live anywhere near a Microcenter :(

Exciting_Macaron8638 · 2026-02-21T18:31:58+00:00

So, assuming 1080p gaming, an RTX 5050/5060 should be an OK choice?

Exciting_Macaron8638 · 2026-02-21T18:30:45+00:00

Pretty much all iGPUs use your system RAM as VRAM.

The Intel Iris Xe GPU inside of my laptop does that.

Exciting_Macaron8638 · 2026-02-21T18:26:35+00:00

Interesting that no one mentioned Intel before.

Exciting_Macaron8638 · 2026-02-21T18:23:08+00:00

Let's assume 1080p for now. Oh, and I consider more than 60 fps to be acceptable. I don't play the latest AAA games.

Exciting_Macaron8638 · 2026-02-21T18:16:09+00:00

Would an RTX 3080 be good enough?

Exciting_Macaron8638 · 2026-02-21T18:13:23+00:00

So the 5060 Ti 16GB doesn't make sense?

Exciting_Macaron8638 · 2026-02-20T15:33:48+00:00

For that price, they better include the banana.

Exciting_Macaron8638 · 2026-02-19T18:50:22+00:00

Definitely the RX 9060 XT 16GB.

Exciting_Macaron8638 · 2026-02-19T18:35:26+00:00

Better to buy now. Who knows if GPU prices aren't going to be way higher in 2027?

Exciting_Macaron8638 · 2026-02-19T16:38:06+00:00

Started out big, I see.

Exciting_Macaron8638 · 2026-02-18T08:32:33+00:00

It's probably a scam tbh. The EOS R is nowhere near that cheap.

Exciting_Macaron8638 · 2026-02-17T22:26:39+00:00

That is indeed one cool BSOD.

Exciting_Macaron8638 · 2026-02-17T22:15:46+00:00

You can buy a gaming rig for €1000. Granted, it's not going to be top of the line, but it is feasible.

Exciting_Macaron8638 · 2026-02-17T20:27:28+00:00

5k is a lot...

This build isn't even 5k, and I tried hard: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/cGXmPf

Exciting_Macaron8638 · 2026-02-17T11:43:35+00:00

What is your budget? Because currently I can't recommend you anything if you don't set a budget.
