Hey everyone! My current PC has been struggling; I'm getting low FPS in games and it crashes after about 10-20 minutes of play. While playing Call of Duty, my CPU usage hit 90% and my GPU was at 88%, which seems pretty extreme. I'm thinking it might be time for a new setup. My brother usually helps me build my PCs, but he's not available this time and thinks I should stick with my current one. I'm looking to build a new PC and I budgeted between €700 to €1000 for just the tower, as I already have an SSD and RAM. Any recommendations on parts or tips for building it myself?

It might help to create a PCPartPicker list of your current specs. This way, you can see potential upgrades or if you need to change platforms completely. Plus, it can help with budgeting if you’re trying to save some cash!
First off, have you checked if your PC is overheating? Cleaning it out might help, but if that's not the issue, try reapplying thermal paste on your CPU. That’s a common fix for overheating problems!
Honestly, I need a bit more info to give you the best advice. What are your current specs? What temperatures are you seeing? And what games are you hoping to play with your new build? If you're sticking to your budget, consider looking at second-hand parts; they can save you a lot!
