Current Events > I want to build a PC but I know nothing about PC building.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Ive thought about building a PC for a few years, and now that Im in a solid place financially, Im gonna use my tax return to do it.

I got no idea what Im doing from a technology stand point though. Im going to be doing more research of course, but any guidance you guys can give is super appreciated.

Budget Id say is $1,000-$1,200. Im not looking for a top of the line PC or anything. My main benchmark is that I want to be able to play through the Blackpits fight in Divinity Original Sin II without my frames coming to a standstill.

You can skimp a bit on the case but pretty much anything that has a dedicated GPU will run that

The only hard part is applying pea sized thermal gel. You'll be fine just youtube it.

theres a ton of guides out there, even a spefic build with a part list you can follow completely along with. for your first build thats what id do, find a guide. follow it to a t. that way you have no surprises.

other than that get a good monitor.
