Not a bad setup, should run most games. I think the video card is a bit on the low end, but it should run COD4 like a champ. lets see some benchmarks when ya get er running!

Not sure if this link will work? AMD BUILD LIST

Regardless of the processor Intel or AMD, if you want a high-end video card, I'd bump the 3060 up to something better. If you go with AMD, I like the 6800. If you choose Nvidia, I'd aim for 3080. Another thing to mention on top of all of this...is possibly consider a new monitor too. Although I don't have one a 144 mhz seems like the way to go. Also, you don't need a sound card unless you are doing music production or something like it. Most motherboards have them built in, and it's really not even needed if you use a usb headset.

I think this is a very good list. I would personally go with an AMD GPU in this case too.. The 3060ti is a good card but for the price I think AMD wins this one. ASRock Radeon RX 6800 Phantom Gaming D Gaming Graphics Card with 16GB GDDR6, AMD RDNA 2 (RX6800 PGD 16GO) - Newegg.com

I just went to windows 11. Everything seems to work right, I like it.

i7 can be misleading, generation is really important. if you're talking a new 12th or 13th gen then yes i7 is prob better. Myold cpu was an i7 seventh gen. New one is an i5 thirteenth gen and much much faster. The more cores, the better generally. The way it's setup it shouldn't let you pick parts that are incompatible. Start with a higher end CPU, then select the next part on the list.

Just got it together, the difference is amazing!

Newegg has a pretty awesome pc builder too, not sure if they do Canadian tho.. Putting them together is pretty simple process. You'd be able to build a better PC for the $ this way, rather than buying a prebuilt tower. For me, I enjoy trying to get the most bang for my buck while checking out the new products. AMD and Nvdia use different ways to identify what you are getting. Nvidia 3060 = 30 generation / 60 series 3070 same generation but slightly better card. 40 gen is the newest card. 4090 being the best. anything with ti after it is like another 1/2 step up. Both #'s are important. An older generation card that is higher in series can outperform a newer generation lower series card. sooo, a 4060 could be outperformed by 3070ti or many other older cards. AMD stuff is rated nearly the same although I am less familiar with it. Comparing the 2 can be difficult. AMD in the past has been a bit of an underdog, and slightly cheaper to piece together. These days, they are so close in price and performance that it's really just a preference. Here is nearly an identical machine to mine for around 2100 CAD https://newegg.io/aa8b8ac

yeah, I've been watching prices for a while. Now is a good time to buy if you can.

Thanks, Ii'll definitely check it out!

I've been looking at a better monitor too. I'm currently using a ASUS VP28U. it's 4k but only 60HZ. I'm really not sure what I'm after. I liked those curved ones, but need to do more research.

well, my PC has been struggling with newer games. I feel like this CPU has underperformed since i've purchased it, wanted to upgrade for some time but have finally done it. Thought I'd share the specs This is my current setup. and benchmark: . My newegg order:

5'11" she is 5'4" i think

2012 AWD Rt Charger is my daily. 250x and lt80 quads for my son and I. 66 Fury, stilllllll needs tranny work... 20 Caravan...

Hmm, mine doesn't use battlenet, just steam. do you know your activision id? it's listed in game.

I tried adding you dLUX but it said player not found. mine is Shadow#3170230

welcome buddy!

It's a pretty good game so far in my opinion. I still dislike the movements. Seems all these newer ones have clunky player movement.

It has crossed my mind to tackle another...one of these days maybe. Looks good so far!

I am installing it now.

After digging around online. I found a common problem with these is the ignition relay. There is a small soldier that is known to break. It is located right behind the ignition key.

Well, the way it shut off you can rule out anything with the starter for now. The new alternator was for certain putting out a charge of around 14v? I'm thinking since this was an issue it could still be an issue that was not corrected. With a new battery it would run and drive for a while but once the battery drained. it would die and not restart. To start, verify the battery has a full charge. does it start or turn over or do anything? yes? test the alternator again Still nothing? Is there a check engine light on? do you have access to a scan tool? You can buy them cheap, google the codes, they are likely related to the problem.
