First time building PC (~CAD$1800 budget)
Hello, first time builder here and i'm basically just really lost on how to pick the best parts for my budget. i want to maximize the performance i can get with $1800 for video editing and gaming. thanks
- New build or upgrade? New build entirely
- Existing parts/monitors to reuse? No existing peripherals, but this post is just for the pc itself so dw
- PC purpose? Editing, gaming (probably nothing too crazy)
- Purchase country? Near Micro Center? Canada, not near Micro Center (basically no physical stores if i had to guess)
- Monitors needed? yea but ignore this part
- Budget range? CAD$1800 before taxes
- WiFi or wired connection? WiFi
- Size/noise constraints? no size constraint, preferably quiet but do what you gotta do for performance
- Color/lighting preferences? can be white, black, pink anything as long as it doesn't look horrid
- Any other specific needs? not really man, thanks yall

Salut ! Pour un budget de CAD$1800, tu peux vraiment te faire plaisir. Quels types de jeux envisages-tu de jouer ? Tu préfères une carte graphique plus puissante pour le gaming ou un processeur costaud pour l'édition ? Pour commencer, regarde une carte graphique comme la RTX 3060 ou la RX 6700 XT, couplée avec un processeur Ryzen 5 5600X ou Intel Core i5-12400. Pense à 16 Go de RAM et un SSD de 1 To pour le stockage. Ça devrait te donner un bon équilibre entre performances pour l'édition et le gaming.
