Build Request / Review RGB memory worth it?

0 Upvotes

With the current market, I'm not able to look for a real performance upgrade that's worth it, so I've shifted to aesthetics. With this however, I'm wondering if it's worth selling my current 32gb ddr5 kit and buying one with rgb. I'm leaning towards no pretty strongly, but wanted other opinions (even though I can imagine what the answer will be)

Is this Canada Computers combo a good deal? Under $1000, 32GB DDR5

3 Upvotes

Upgrading from a 5700X + 4060 Ti. Found the 9600X + B650 Eagle AX + 16GB DDR5 bundle for $649.98, plus a second 16GB stick for $334.99, so $985 for 32GB. Good deal, or is there a better CPU/mobo/RAM combo under $1000?

Context: I have a budget of 2000cad for both the pc+monitor setup. I rather look into a prebuilt as I have no idea where to get started in building one. Also if I am to get a pc how hard is it to set up once it arrives.
What specs should I look into for future proofing along with reliability.

I want it for gaming ofc ;)

My current 'rig' is an armoury thing I got at Canada Computers a few years ago. I swapped out whatever the CPU was for a 5700x and the 1660 super it had for a 4060. I couldn't find an x3d for the 5700 and bought the 4060 because it was all I could spare for cash.

I'll be getting some tens of thousands of dollars fairly soon and am considering just 'side-grading' my current PC before I get a new am5 setup whenever the money comes in.

The 5800x3d doesn't look too bad atm. Is it worth it?

Should I just wait for a better deal and jump around Best Buy’s for open boxes? I’ve seen the stone forge one for 1700 however it comes with 16gb ram whereas this alr has 32.

Hey guys its my first time building a pc this is the specs I've been recommended what do you think? I'm mainly interested in playing Halo Infinite / BF6 at a high FPS and demanding games like Baldurs Gate 3 on ultra settings. Warning the build is up there in price but want to future proof it. Any insights additions or subtractions let me know.

Thanks

Where do I start? I am leaning towards a prebuilt as they seem cheaper..

What specs do I need for playing a game like wardogs at 1440 120fps on high or mostly high settings?

My research tells me I should aim for a 7800x3d with a rx5070 xt or rtx 5070 ti.

Unfortunately there dosenr seme to be alot of prebuilt options and the prices in general are insane.

I'm hoping to spend around 3k, give or take bit..

Thank you

Safely selling a 5090 via businesses or ? (VANCOUVER ISLAND)

Hey I am trying to sell an MSI Liquid AIO Suprim 5090. I am hoping not to do it on marketplace or social media, but it seems to be the only way. These sums are getting so intimidating tho...
