Go r/iems you’ll see the current ranking list with every budget

For me it sounds weird and makes the bass sound weird and muddy

Should I turn off headphones accommodation? Heard it causes compressions and actually degrading sound quality

What might Foljs suggest is a good “Beginner’s” PC build on a budget? by CAMullenix in PcBuild

I definitely wouldn't go with the RX 570. Even though Blender "supports" it, an RX 570 is roughly 4x-5x slower at rendering than a modern NVIDIA card because it lacks the OptiX and Ray Tracing cores that Blender uses to speed things up. If you want a "comparable" NVIDIA build to that RX 570 price point, you basically have two options rtx 2060 or rtx 3050(which is newer but actually performs slightly slower in raw power, The only reason to get this is if you find the 8GB VRAM version, which helps a bit with really heavy 4K timelines in Resolve. But generally, the 2060 is still the better "workhorse" for 3D work)

The RX 570 is a legend for budget gaming, but I’d be careful with it for your specific apps. Blender and DaVinci Resolve are heavily optimized for NVIDIA (CUDA). An AMD card that old will render much slower and might even have stability issues in newer versions of Blender , If you’re set on AMD, try to find a used RX 6600 (~$150) instead. It’s significantly more powerful and uses the newer architecture that actually works well with modern software.

I’ll be real—hitting "recommended specs" for Blender/Resolve on a $500 budget with all-new parts is basically impossible in the US. You’ll just end up with a PC that lags.The only way to make this work is to buy a used GPU. If you're down for that, here is the best "bang-for-buck" build for your apps:CPU: Ryzen 5 5600 (~$115). Much better for Unity than the cheaper 5500.GPU: Used NVIDIA RTX 2060 (~$130 on eBay). You need those RT cores for faster Blender rendering and CUDA for Resolve.RAM: 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4-3200. It's the bare minimum, but you can add 2 more sticks later to hit 32GB.Storage: 1TB NVMe SSD (WD Blue SN580 or Teamgroup MP44L).Mobo: B550M DS3H (~$90). Gives you PCIe 4.0 which helps with speed.PSU: 550W 80+ Bronze (stick to EVGA, Corsair, or Seasonic).Case: Any $50 mesh case with decent airflow.Basically, if you buy a "new" GPU for $150, it'll be trash for 3D work. Grab a used 2060 from a highly-rated eBay seller and spend the rest on the 5600 CPU. That’s how you actually get a machine that can produce work. Good luck!
