time for upgrade, need help

rjboule

I am currently running a ryzen 5 1600x processor, 16gb ram, and a geforce rtx 2070 super gpu. One of the games I am currently playing (Diablo 4) is killing my poor old PC

I Live 100 miles from the Overland Park location and am wanting to have them build a PC for me, I would build my own but don't really have the space to build or patience for cable management and trouble shooting...lol

this is my parts list, just want to get opinions and suggestions before putting the order in. my budget is between 2200-2700 dollars

tried to post a link to the build, but apparently I have not been a member long enough to post links

buy a cd key for windows instead and download install media on a flash drive and buy a bundle for a 7600x or 7700x

I would definitely buy a key online and save over 100 bucks, however.... having them build the computer and setup in store, not only do I not see the option to add my own key into the order, but when building the parts list it doesn't show any of the bundle deals on my end, so I have no idea what's available to get discounts....... I would call the store, but it is impossible to find a phone number to talk to anyone

i would go to support and talk to a person in chat, also you dont need an aio for a ryzen 5, get an aircooler and then you can opt for different custom build options

I tried going through chat and they just told me to go in store for a consultation and yes the aio is a bit of overkill, I just think it looks cleaner without the big cooling block mounted to the cpu

OK, did some more searching and came across this bundle deal saving a good amount while being able to upgrade the CPU

it is looking like I will have to build myself to get the discount
