PC Builder Sites

[Amraam]

Other than PC building simulator, are there any websites where I can pick a bunch of components and see a visual of the configured PC? I'm not talking exactly Unreal Engine 5 level realism, just 'AIO X, Mobo Y, in case Z'.

Cheers!

If you search for the main parts you can find a lot of builds on YouTube already.

Yeah that's what I've been doing. There's just too much choice and I'm struggling to isolate what I need or want vs what I don't. I might resurrect my recent build advice thread and see what's what

Ask for themed builds, that could be fun

That has crossed my mind too. I'm sitting here thinking there's no way I can afford a new build right now, and the other half is screaming sod it, go full custom loop in a NV7 case and use "it's educational because I've not done it before" to justify it.

I was pretty set on getting a 4080 Super so I can fully employ the DLSS 3.5 features, but I think the logic has finally landed that that is a bit silly. I don't think my 8700k at 4.8ghz would be a huge problem but it's far from ideal.

You could just change the case and get a nice set of cables, then upgrade the rest when the price/performance makes more sense? Though, not sure what block compatibility is like, since while the CPU might be possible, pretty sure you can't get one for the graphics card that would fit something newer.
