Hi guys, a friend of fine asked if i could make him a build for his new pc, something small so he can move it around easily and not expensive, so he could have a work pc on which he could play some games (he usually play not demanding games like cs2, but he may play some heavier games from time to time) Im super out of the loop for pc’s since i build mine 6 years ago some im asking some advice. I’d tend to to go with AMD both for CPU and GPU, but im open to any advice. Thank you very much!
800€ and integrated gpu? Wow, do gpu’s price went that up? I had the same budget for my pc and i managed to get an RX 580, not the very best but it does the job and at least its not integrated.
Well on one hand yes, GPUs are expensive because of the AI hype. But also, iGPUs are way more powerful than they used to be. AMD supplies APUs for the PS5 and Xbox. So basically the only GPU that is a worthwhile upgrade from an iGPU is the RX 9060 XT 16GB, at around 380 euros.
Oh, i get it. Thanks
The 8700G’s iGPU is roughly equivalent to an RX 6500XT dedicated GPU
