What’s the best PC I can build for $1500?

You might want to check out PCPartPicker! It’s a great resource for building your PC because it shows you tons of options based on your budget. You can compare parts and see what fits together.

For $1500, you can build a really good mid-range setup! Think about going for an i5 or Ryzen 7 7800x3d with something like a 5070 GPU. You should be able to run games smoothly at decent settings.

Here’s a link to a build that’s just over $1500: pcpartpicker.com/list/v3knVF. You could save some cash by downgrading to a standard RX 9070 or RTX 5070 instead of the higher-end options. Just keep in mind you might need to tweak a couple of things to fit your budget!

Your regional prices will vary, but a 9070 XT is a solid choice. You don’t necessarily need to go for an X3D CPU; my 9600X has been working great for me without bottlenecking.

Here’s another build link: pcpartpicker.com/list/qBDDv4. This setup is slightly above $1500 but can easily handle 1440p gaming on max settings, even with ray tracing!
