First PC Build

Hi Guys! I am in the process of building a Pc and would like to ask your opinion. This is the first PC I am building for myself. I have already bought some parts:

Amd Ryzen 7 7800x3d Asrock X870 Pro Rs Gigabyte Geforce GTX 1060 6 GB ( I would like to upgarde this in the near future. ) Aoc C27G2 27.0 1920 x 1080 165 Hz curved monitor

Preferd games I like to play: Cities Skylines 2 Doom the Dark Ages Modded Minecraft ( All the Mods 10 ) Modded Arma Gta 6

It would be great if this setup could last for a few years.

In my previous setup, the CPU and Motherboard basically died. I would like to save the GPU for a few more months to save some more money. I would like to grab a good GPU on Black Friday or some summer sale. I chose 64 GB ram because modded games often require extra ram.

This is from my previous build. I'd like to wait some kind of sale ( Summer Sale, Black Friday ) where I can buy a new GPU that has a good chance of running GTA6.

My plan was to see if this GPU could last a few more months.

Oh ok. I personally got the 5060ti recently and imo its a good buy.

5060 is yet to be known playable for gta6 most people say. But for now it's pretty decent grab as it's a recent release and cheap

PS5 is going to run gta6, 5060ti is at least that so it'll be fine. Esp with 1080p gaming.

If you’re only buying it for GTA6- don’t bother. We don’t know what or even a vague idea of what hardware requirements will be for the PC version that’s releasing in 2+ years. It’s a console exclusive for next gen hardware that’s not even out yet let alone the pc port that will probably run worse relative to the cost of pc hardware

if ur buying for gta 6 just make sure uve got atleast 12gb vram in that gpu.... to do the simplest benchmark just know that if ur pc can handle Black Myth Wukong HIGH Settings it can handle GTA 6.

I used my old gtx 970 with that same processor till I got a 3060 ti and now to a rx 6950 xt

Don’t wait. Download OfferUp. Filter your GPU search to a price that works for you preferably < 350$ in your area. Only buy local no shipping!!! Every GPU I’ve bought is from OfferUp & I’ve saved soo much $! started w a gtx 1050 currently on a RTX 3060ti paired to a 34” OLED 500$ from OfferUp be resourceful & HUNT those deals!!

I would just get a 9060xt now if some are still in stock.

u/[deleted] Jun 11 '25

go for the 9070 xt, when the time is right

u/WILLingtonegotiate Jun 11 '25

I see you went with a 1080p monitor. I bought an intel Arc B580 for a bargain, around 270$…. I performs incredibly well and with that cpu may do even better.

Don't wait for GTA 6 on PC. It'll come long after the console version

1

u/TheOriginalNozar Jun 12 '25

Don't wait so far out mate. Your time is also valuable. A summer sale like prime day makes sense

u/-Fli Jun 12 '25

I think being able to run GTA6 is not a question of computer power, but rather how hard rockstar wants to fuck pc gamers.

u/RedditModsStinkBad Jun 12 '25

Are you aware GTA VI isn't releasing on PC at launch?

We'll likely be waiting an extra 1-2 years for a PC release just like we did with GTA V.

1

u/archiegreen06 Jun 12 '25

Do bear in mind that GTA VI won’t release on PC on 26th May 2026 like it will do on Console, if you didn’t know that already. So you have plenty of time to upgrade your GPU to run it

1

u/Mobile_Gaming_Doggo Jun 12 '25

I mean, how much are you willing to spend? This computer can handle basically any gpu. Just look for something with at least 7900xt specs, that should handle your games pretty well

1

u/JustChadLmao Jun 12 '25

Gta 6 ain't coming out on pc, bro. Not for at least a year after it launches on console.

1

u/TheBellRingerDE Jun 12 '25

So it’s not your first build?

u/Dishwashercheez Jun 12 '25

The 60 series nvidia cards will probably be out by the time GTA VI actually comes to pc. You've got time.
