I fucking hate this.

thats the shittiest build ive seen today

>Implying scalpers aren't doing the same with Ps5 and Xbox One X One X 360

no mirrors in your apartment eh?

I didn't imply shit about console gaming and I wouldn't buy the first sku of any console to begin with.

Yeah, okay. its always a console shitter that can't afford a decent $500 gaming PC that makes these kind of threads. Are you Snoyfag? Maybe a Nintendie?

>3 1440p monitors
>Ryzen7 5800X
>2 strangely niche 4TB hard drives for 8TB of storage
>2TB NVME
What kind of retarded shilling is this and why are a few parts not retarded overkill/exaggeration?

No.

The spinny drives would be in raid 1. I do actually have non-gaming shit that I need to have protected from drive failure.
Why would you not want a high capacity nvme drive for gaming? I don't want to constantly delete shit like console gamers will have to with their 1tb ssds.

>HDDs
autism

High capacity SSD in raid is a terrible and expensive idea.

PC is pointless atm. Just wait for PS5 since the price is better. You're going to be playing console ports either way

I can't play console ports if the console has no games to begin with.

Why do you need raid

>3500
spent 1250 for a 2060 super, 16 gigs, i-7 9700, can run most games at 115+fps at 1080p, 80-100 at 1440p. The fuck are you on?

It has all the PS4 games as I understand it and by the time you can get a PS5, it'll probably have Bloodborne 2 and 3

>2060 super
it's not 2016 anymore

>no poptarts
come on son

>nvidia
>goyskill
>3 1440p165Hz monitors

>B550 and not X570

games have not evolved past 2016 yet, my zoomer friend

>2 4tb hdd
what the fuck do you need all that storage for
>2tb ssd
same as above. is it your boot drive?
>3080
go for a 2070 super
>the case
thats like 200$? are you retarded
>3 fucking monitors
this is bait

Holy shit this is good bait

>B550 and not X570
because the X and being +20 numbers is better right?
spoilers: the only difference is i/o

>1080p
>didn't include the cost of a 1440p/144hz monitor in his "1250" pc from two years ago
Sure, I can build an "ok" pc for ~$1000 and use shitty 1080p/60hz monitors I already own. But I'm talking about an optimal experience.

obvious bait but i kekd

You can't do PBO on B550 which is a huge performance win for your CPU on X570. Plus an el cheapo X570 board is only like $20 more than a B550 one and just as capable

That is one hell of a retarded build

imagine spending that much money and not even getting RGB RAM, what a fucking idiot

Just grab a PS5, XSS and a Switch (or wait to see of there's a pro version soon) and you'll still be under cost for whatever garbage build you'll be able to cobble together
PS5 for Sony games and best multiplats
S for emulation and occasional Xbox first party
Switch for Nintendo games
PC gaming is obsolete

This build is comedy gold

>minimum of $3500 for an optimal experience in 2020
nigger, you could get a $350 Ryzen 4 APU laptop and get the optimal experience for 2020 considering how shit games have become beyond 2008.

I currently have 1tb free of my current 5tb of space. I have shit on my pc. Doesn't matter what it is; I actually use the space.
Why would I want to downgrade from a 3080 to last gen's mid-range gpu?
The case costs ~$120. When it's actually in stock from a legit retailer.
I do actually use 3 monitors. How can you not?

here's your (you) faggot now hit the road

Atleast make the build funny you faggot

lets see your build then

>$5 shipping
not worth it

>16GB RAM
It's a common misconception that most gamers don't find this suitable

everything in this PC besides the 3080 has cost me under 1500. you are just an idiot OP

Case Define R6: 75 on sale
cpu: 375 xeon 14 core
memory: ddr4 256gb only 400 (back when ddr4 you had to sell a kid for)
2tb ssd: 100
1tb nvme: 100
psu evga 1000w 76 bucks
cooler 50 dollars black friday 2019
cable extensions 34
980ti (original gpu in pc) 150

1285 usd at the time, could be cheaper but this was overkill at the time. Now that it has a 3080 it still doesnt need an upgrade. learn to shop used and cheap

the PC before this also had a 980ti for under 400

HP Xeon workstation 8 core with 16gb ram, 1tb hdd, and the 980ti with a corsair tx 750w

150 for the 980ti, 50 for the corsair tx 750, the xeon workstation 200
