Seeking Tips for My First PC Build
Asked by
TechWiz42
Hey everyone! I'm putting together my first PC build and could really use some advice on how to make it either cheaper or more powerful. I'm planning on using it primarily for modded Terraria, Geometry Dash, streaming, and recording. In case I decide to dive into more demanding games later, I want to ensure I have enough power. If you have any suggestions or alternatives, I'm all ears! Here's my build link for reference: [my first PC build](https://pcpartpicker.com/list/jCFnn2).

I recommend switching to a newer CPU. You can find better deals on GPUs in the used market too. Also, consider bumping up your RAM for better multitasking!

Going with a 9060XT 16GB GPU is a smart choice if you're thinking about higher resolutions or more intense games down the line. It fits your budget and should serve you well!
TechWiz42: Thanks a lot! This looks much better and cheaper than what I had before!

Check out this build instead: [alternative build](https://pcpartpicker.com/list/9mmhqd). It might meet your needs better, but remember to grab an operating system!
TechWiz42: Good call! I totally forgot about the OS. Thanks for the reminder!

TechWiz42: Do you think 32GB will be enough? What's the next step up if I need more? Can I mix different sticks like another 16GB? I'm kinda new to RAM sizes.
