I’m half-way through buying all of my parts.
Pretend that my selected graphics card is the Lisuan G100. Because fuck AMD and NVIDIA.
My usecases are playing around with DaVinci Resolve and GIMP, small-time Godot game dev’ing, playing indie games, self-hosting (e.g. a Jellyfin instance for my movie/tv show for my LAN streaming needs) and just general browsing lol. I don’t intend to overclock, so 600-650W seems fairly plenty.
I had previously struggled with H.265 video formats, my previous setup with the i5 4670k and NVIDIA 750ti were barely keeping up with anything new, never mind newer standards (somehow runs Ghostrunner 2 @ 1080p 40fps in most terrains!). They held their weight pretty nicely over the years though.
Ryzen 8700F (6-core, auto-overclocks to 4.76 Ghz, 65W), Radeon 6400 (the weakest gpu I found, 55W), 64GB ram, 1TB m.2 SSD, 500W power supply (I think I just needed 200W but this one was cheaper), some gigabyte wlan mainboard (my room’s lan connection doesn’t work), ATX housing (I accidentally bought the wrong size at first), a cheap cpu cooler (65W doesn’t need much cooling)
My usecases are modded minecraft, dolphin-emu, IntelliJ, Qwen-Image (had to stock up on ram for this), BTD6, modded Balatro, VLC.
