Looking for PC Build Recommendations Under $2500

-

Hey everyone! I’m wanting to build my dream PC and I have a budget of $2500. This setup will be for both gaming and productivity tasks, and I already have a monitor so that budget is just for the components. Any suggestions on the best parts I should get? I’m open to going a bit higher for a monitor separately, but I’d love your advice on the PC build itself!

I’ll throw a couple of ideas your way! For graphics, consider the RX 9070 XT for great price-to-performance, or if you’re into ray tracing and AI features, the RTX 5070 Ti is a solid pick, although it’s a bit pricier. Pair that with a Ryzen 7 9800X3D, and you’ll have a fantastic setup. Plus, you’ll likely have some cash left for a nice case and maybe some RGB lighting if that’s your thing!
