So, I have a not so unique problem. I want to build a PC with decent power and good Linux support but local parts are hard to get and importing is a mess.
Local shops don’t have much
https://www.scanmalta.com/shop/ this is the only local shop with parts in stock, and even they only have 1 amd GPU.
I’m looking for both amd CPU and GPU. At least 16 GB of ram and ideally as cheap as I can. Anyone have any advice to give me?
Also wtf is the motherboard thing. What works wi the what?
I’m aiming for something midrange-ish
So I have a couple of starter questions:
- What’s your region?
- What do you want your computer to do for you?
- What’s your current budget?
Ex: I want to play Elden Ring at max graphics settings, I need it able to run xyz program for work/school
I’ll ask some follow up questions afterwards👍
Also I’d recommend using PcPartPicker to find comp parts, it’s what I typically start with when finding parts for my customersI’m in Malta, As shown by the link I sent. My budget is flaxibke but ideally under 1000
I wanna get like maybe some ps3 emulation. Nothing too modern tho.
For Malta, the closest region for pricing looks like Italy so you’ll want to use the Itallian region for parts selection
PS3 emulation alright👍
Also, guessing graphics features like Raytracing isn’t a high priority but a bonus if possible?Raytracing and stuff is a bonus, might try move my mc server from the worlds worst provider to said PC tho
Thanks for the wait!
Just had an emergency to deal with unfortunatelyI’ve got a rough draft of your partslist: https://it.pcpartpicker.com/list/Lgxnsh
I’ll have to revise several parts and if you’re willing to donate to my Liberapay I’ll provide a PDF doc with my reasoning for each part🤗
Thank you for the draft. DW about the wait
A friend picked a similar price build from.Germany with similar specs, might get that
fair enough👍
best of luck and I hope it goes well for you!🤗
Thank you :3
