Good question, I just did that this summer for the first time in ~8 years. I knew I wanted something mid-range that would basically play the AA games OK, didn’t need AAA quality. I hit up a couple people like TAM & one of my DQ friends that are big into the PC scene and asked for recommendations for something 1/4 the price they’d spend (chuckle chuckle). Got a good $800 machine & spent another $200 increasing the storage and RAM myself to make it the PC I’d needed.
I like to go to PC part picker and start looking at various combinations to see which one best matches my needs. I recently built a computer by getting a combo sale at Newegg. It would of been great except the gigabyte Motherboard did not work. I ended up getting an Asus board instead that has worked great.
Haven’t bought a new PC in so long. Are you calling me out? How did you know I needed to upgrade? Did I leave my camera on after my award winning RNG Wheel Stream (which you can find right here on our twitch channel).
Anyways, I do need to upgrade, and actually have no idea where I should even start. I am going to try and buy some parts off of friends that upgrade their PCs and don’t need the old parts. So I guess my answer is, I do it by hand me downs?
