They’re fluctuating like crazy 😭 there was 32gb 6000mhz CL30 kit that went down to £118 and that sold out within 2 hours and now the same kit went back up to £265 cause the previous store ran out
The 64GB Corsair Vengeance kit I bought for $285 is now over $1100. I thought the price I paid was too much compared to before, but a quadruple price hike in weeks is pure insanity.
@Jazzmaster1992 I got 32 gb kingston fury for 250, it was start of price increase, I could get 64gb for the same price a month earlier, now now, the same 32 gb i got is 600°°
spending 800-900$ on a dead socket and with only 16gb of ram ... for a bit more you can easily do a 7500f + b650 + 32gb ram + 9060xt 16gb and have a MUCH better pc for the future.
i agree. I built an AM4 socket PC 2 years ago and it was only $400. But that's because I reused my 1080ti as 30 series were hard to get. But now with GPUs available. I would rather go a full build around a 9700x chip in AM5. The GPU is really the bulk of the cost.
Thank you so much for the video! Can you make a video for a gaming build particularly for sim racing, especially for Assetto Corsa Competizione as it is very heavy on graphics?
Thanx, TMT. About three days after this vid I ordered the exact mid-tier build with a Gigabyte 5070 ti ($750) from Amazon. Today I completed it. I can vouch for all the prices and it seems to run very well.
I just ordered everything for my PC using the Ryzen 9800 X3D & RTX 5080. Ended up spending $6400 after getting everything (desk, chair, mouse, keyboard, etc). It’s insanity, but I won’t have to upgrade anything for a very long time.
@jacobbeam1202In my country I got 9800X3D build just under 2500€. Some compromises needed to be made though. I wanted Nvidia card but had to settle to 9070xt. Also memory prices are insane so I had to settle for 32gigs with lower tier stick.
Great video and some insights on why to get such parts. I'm working to do a full new build for gaming and production. Having more storage will be the idea. Just like you said in gaming and images. Data can be used up fast. Any recommendations for using extra storage on the builds?
Best video that’s what we need and only thing now we is a best productivity pc build in same category in all three budgets which can play most of non competitive game ❤
I just subscribed to your channel great stuff now I have a question should o go with micro center bundle or go with that high tier motherboard it’s for my son he plays games and does content creation on RUclips I purchased a 5070
That mid-tier build is almost identical to what I have including the case, the only major difference is the GPU (4070 super in my build instead of 5070ti). Overall from my experience, I'd say it's a good build. suggestion.
Thank you TMT for your great video always. Could you please do a video for the best build for a Trading PC with at least 6 monitors, a lot of back testing and use of AI for strategy development as well as automation using APIs, Chat forums like Telegram, X and a bit of coding . Not sure what type of GPUs are good for this since you always focus on Gaming(would quad-core GPUs be bettersince trading uses 2D charts and have more ports for the extra monitors?). Not keen on price but best performance. Is there any advantage of using the E-ATX Motherboard in building a PC for trading? Thank you once again for the great work.
this is a big help thank you for sharing:) what about Photographers and video editing ? can you build PC or share. ideas how to build pc that can be use for photo editing and video editing? please.
I can personally say that even with a stable overclock of +400 mhz and +250 vram clock, the msi gaming trio 5080 runs at max 76 degrees celcius in cp2077. Truth be told, I have it inside a Lightbase 900FX with 6 140mm intake, 1 140mm exhaust and a 360 aio, but stil for such a high stable oc, these temps are phenomenal
Im planning to build a pc this holiday season as a gift to myself. I've watched around 7 of your videos and they are all helpful. Thank you. PS: Anywhere I can post my build to be scrutinized? Thanks!
Hi, Mr.TMT, I have been enjoying and benefiting from your videos. Thank you for making these videos in your particular style and explaining concepts to your audience with succinctness and clarity. I myself work as a video editor. So, I am wondering if it's possible at all for you to make a similar video on video-editing PC builds. I personally would appreciate it if the builds in the video focus on how to make render caches in Davinci Resolve generate faster, while the timelines primarily involve 2D editing, instead of 3D. If you'd like to expand the target software beyond Davinci Resolve, I think that's great. But given how popular Davinci Resolve has been among youtubers and internet content-creators, I would expect a PC build guide specifically tailored for it to be well-received. Thank you very much and please stay mysterious.
Those are awesome Builds. I usually use ai to to tell me compatibility and more info on the parts. But i would like to know if there is a better place to buy parts than amazon like a cheaper one if possible
This video aged well, minus the ram and GPU pricing and availability. At this point your only options remain as the 9060, 9070, 5080 and the intel variants as budget options. Sorry folks, until the bubble pops you won't be getting ram and GPUs anywhere near MSRP, most other electronics using ram chips as well.
This is kinda "for the algorithm," but I do find value in these videos. Right on with the right on. I'm not an expert. I'm here to learn, so I don't really have opinions yet. You keep posting and I'll keep watching.
Thank you for this. It is helpful and easy to understand. Could you do one that is something on "Best 3 Creator/Production PC Builds for Your Budget! (2025/2026)"? That would definitely be something worth doing, especially since there really isn't a lot of information/builds in that department compared to gaming. P.S. Creators still like RGB's too, not 100% black.
Hi ! I apreciated your video and cool mask by the way. I have a question and it is: with your Mid-Tier build, can I play Battlefield 6 with 100 fps at 2560x1440 pixels resolution ? P.S. I will like to go with the: Prime Radeon RX 9070 OC Edition 16GB GDDR6.
I think for the budget builds Ryzen 5 7600 over i5-14400f makes more sense. AM5 mobos are cheaper on basically anywhere I see. DDR5 is getting cheaper and cheaper and the i5 also lacks iGPU for times you may need them. In fact, without the iGPU I do not believe there's much reaons to go with Intel nowadays since they won't have QuickSync, which is widely used on Adobe programs. Overall, I think Ryzen 5 just makes more sense.
THAT is the reason why I still have my trust old Intel Core i7-4790 with the GIGABYTE Z97X-Gaming 3 board where is my board half dead but my cpu and the rest of stuff still works perfectly ...ai.my old hd's etc.are still works,,,,need to get me a new board+cpu..been running since 2014.....lot of games,movies gone through since, it's been served me well.
I know you get a lot of comments, but it would be sick if you could recommend or do a video on the best PC build and best Laptop build not just for gaming, but for recording video gameplay through OBS software to upload to RUclips at high 4k resolution. I'd really love to hear your opinion on what makes not only a good gaming computer like you do in this video, but what would be the best specs for not only smooth high resolution gaming, but also recording it in 4k through OBS and uploading to RUclips, etc.
My build is almost exactly the high end build, except I opted for the Asus prime 5070 TI to save a lot of money. But at the end of the day the build still came to around 2.5k since I live in europe 🙃
PSU Seasonic ... or Carsair the same Seasonic with Corsair branding... The last is for the case of custom options or a very attractive price for the device.
I cried when I saw the RAM price from the video compared with the current one 😭
That shi tripled 😭
The prices not dropping till 2028😢
@underworld5118so expensive really.
i know right? the same ram is like £380 ($520) now, if only we could get it for $80 . . .
@underworld5118hopefully sooner if a certain bubble pops
this video aged quickly, that mid tier build is now $1845
The only thing I am Building right now is the Budget to Buy the Parts in 2026.
😅me too
😂
its gonna cost even more in 2026 lmaoo
LOL same and fck ram is getting worse with each day
who's gonna tell him...
This vid 1 month old, I wish ram prices was still the same lmao
They’re fluctuating like crazy 😭 there was 32gb 6000mhz CL30 kit that went down to £118 and that sold out within 2 hours and now the same kit went back up to £265 cause the previous store ran out
@ManMan55555 yeah, i dont buy now I'll play the wait game brother, I got the laptop hopefully will not fail me
The 64GB Corsair Vengeance kit I bought for $285 is now over $1100. I thought the price I paid was too much compared to before, but a quadruple price hike in weeks is pure insanity.
@Jazzmaster1992 I got 32 gb kingston fury for 250, it was start of price increase, I could get 64gb for the same price a month earlier, now now, the same 32 gb i got is 600°°
You are by far the best creator on the PC world. Hope when you reach the top your quality will be the same !!
The editing is next level.
Great list, very thoughtful I recently turned 60 and never built a PC before, hopefully very soon I'm an xbox player and looking for more everything 👍
its crazy how that ram used to go for 87 USD and now its over 300 USD. FML
spending 800-900$ on a dead socket and with only 16gb of ram ... for a bit more you can easily do a 7500f + b650 + 32gb ram + 9060xt 16gb and have a MUCH better pc for the future.
i agree. I built an AM4 socket PC 2 years ago and it was only $400. But that's because I reused my 1080ti as 30 series were hard to get. But now with GPUs available. I would rather go a full build around a 9700x chip in AM5. The GPU is really the bulk of the cost.
or 5070
Try to be more price Performance fanboy not amd
not a dead socket since they released new cpus for it lol
Muslim_ilmi_kitabi_786 Do the mid tier he suggested.
Excellent comparison. Thanks for the effort. Hugely logical. Very compelling.
Exactly what i needed - gonna go for a high end and since its my first gaming pc (switching from console) i dont want to make mistakes
You won't be making mistake with the mid tier. High end is a mistake of its own, too expensive for not much real world gain.
These are the most informative, ckear, & concise videos on OC building
very informative thanks for the tips , looking for more videos to come
Thank very much for the information
👍👍😊😊
Liked ,subscribed and commented. I appreciate the to the point and informative info.
appreciate the video.
Great job. looking forward to the next one.
Excellent content, thankyou
good work
Great job!
Great video
You are an absolute Beast thanks for the video.
Thanks for this guide, definitely helped with me planning my next pc.
🎩
4:11 He meant RX 9060 XT.
Good stuff
Great vid
Awesome Video, keep them coming!
Thank you so much for the video! Can you make a video for a gaming build particularly for sim racing, especially for Assetto Corsa Competizione as it is very heavy on graphics?
Amazing video
Thanks for the suggestions, it's very well explained and I've taken notes!
Great video as always
Very good content
awesome :)
Excellent content, presentation and editing. Thank you!
great information thank you and keep up the hard work
Thanx, TMT. About three days after this vid I ordered the exact mid-tier build with a Gigabyte 5070 ti ($750) from Amazon. Today I completed it. I can vouch for all the prices and it seems to run very well.
Good job big dog 👍
that high end budget cost like $3200-3600 in my country even when i tried the cheapest parts possible in the recommendations lmao
I just ordered everything for my PC using the Ryzen 9800 X3D & RTX 5080. Ended up spending $6400 after getting everything (desk, chair, mouse, keyboard, etc). It’s insanity, but I won’t have to upgrade anything for a very long time.
@jacobbeam1202In my country I got 9800X3D build just under 2500€. Some compromises needed to be made though. I wanted Nvidia card but had to settle to 9070xt. Also memory prices are insane so I had to settle for 32gigs with lower tier stick.
@jacobbeam1202in my country (UK) thats around exactly the same for the pc and peripherals
Thank you. You gave me a good point to start my building for 2026. I hope I can get better prices for all those parts
You are my hero !!!!!
Thank you 🌹🌹
EcoElite Tech plants a tree for every pc. I've built a few PCs, but got a prebuilt from them and the quality is great
Great content for budget gamers
Although I'm still using Lenovo ThinkPad E540 from 2014 to game and other daily activities, I enjoy your videos. 👍👍👍
17:03 That's quite beautiful will said, it reflects our society and the world pretty well.
Stay mysterious !
Great video and some insights on why to get such parts. I'm working to do a full new build for gaming and production. Having more storage will be the idea. Just like you said in gaming and images. Data can be used up fast. Any recommendations for using extra storage on the builds?
Very much appreciate these kind of recommendation,
To make it a full video is more than enough for us.
Best video that’s what we need and only thing now we is a best productivity pc build in same category in all three budgets which can play most of non competitive game ❤
9:27 easter egg (chaeper option)😁
I just subscribed to your channel great stuff now I have a question should o go with micro center bundle or go with that high tier motherboard it’s for my son he plays games and does content creation on RUclips I purchased a 5070
That mid-tier build is almost identical to what I have including the case, the only major difference is the GPU (4070 super in my build instead of 5070ti). Overall from my experience, I'd say it's a good build. suggestion.
RUclips literally read my mind for showing this on my home page
Thank you TMT for your great video always. Could you please do a video for the best build for a Trading PC with at least 6 monitors, a lot of back testing and use of AI for strategy development as well as automation using APIs, Chat forums like Telegram, X and a bit of coding .

Thanks 👀👀👀😳🤗🤗🤗💪🏾💪🏾‼️
this is a big help thank you for sharing:) what about Photographers and video editing ? can you build PC or share. ideas how to build pc that can be use for photo editing and video editing? please.
Yea, you definitely helped me to tweak my choices in parts. Wasn't that far off but a few unnecessary choices.
I PAID THE HIGH END PRICE FOR THE MID TEIR OPTION AND THAT WAS IN EURO 2600 EURO HERE IN POLAND
hell yeah brother
You know $800-900 can only get me a mid-range cpu-motherboard combo where I am from, not an entire PC.
I can personally say that even with a stable overclock of +400 mhz and +250 vram clock, the msi gaming trio 5080 runs at max 76 degrees celcius in cp2077. Truth be told, I have it inside a Lightbase 900FX with 6 140mm intake, 1 140mm exhaust and a 360 aio, but stil for such a high stable oc, these temps are phenomenal
Nice
Im planning to build a pc this holiday season as a gift to myself. I've watched around 7 of your videos and they are all helpful. Thank you.
PS: Anywhere I can post my build to be scrutinized? Thanks!
Can you please do good for productivity and low power PC builds? Thanks

I would like to see a good build recommendation for MSFS and DCS flyers, using AMD X3D processors please!
Yes I want something that will last for a long time everything that a 5090 needs for not just gaming but for learning Java or programming AI
Make production builds as well, please. :-)
Thanks.
Yes please a production build. There has to be a deference between gaming and production and video creators
My i7-9700k paired with 9060xt 16gb runs perfectly fine.
4tb for Os Ssd m.2 now ranging between 200 and 300
9600x with the 9060 XT (16gb ofc) is a pretty good combo as well
Can you make pc or suggest components for blender and 3d softwares and together for games???? ❤❤
Sir one request for video on best gaming laptop
As you know, I normally don’t talk about this, but I actually talk about it twice in every single video.
This is kinda "for the algorithm," but I do find value in these videos. Right on with the right on.
I'm not an expert. I'm here to learn, so I don't really have opinions yet. You keep posting and I'll keep watching.

Hi !
I apreciated your video and cool mask by the way.
I have a question and it is: with your Mid-Tier build, can I play Battlefield 6 with 100 fps at 2560x1440 pixels resolution ?
P.S.
I will like to go with the: Prime Radeon RX 9070 OC Edition 16GB GDDR6.
Will there be a video about choosing motherboards before buying?
Please can you do a video on RAM and SSDs? Need an expert decoding of the terms that I've found only you can do.
Using trending sounds or formats can boost visibility in Shorts
Look for used i5-14600T. 35w idle to 96w max. Very cool and quiet running, about 92% of standard 14600 CPU.
Main gain is to have high end better stuff where won’t have to upgrade for bit for first pc did fast forward to mid and high price rage to compare
You should make a video about motherboards
I think for the budget builds Ryzen 5 7600 over i5-14400f makes more sense. AM5 mobos are cheaper on basically anywhere I see. DDR5 is getting cheaper and cheaper and the i5 also lacks iGPU for times you may need them.

Haha ddr5 just got stupid expensive
In the Uk intel 12th-14th gen mobos are cheaper with ddr5 too
ddr5 is getting cheaper and cheaper didnt age well
Can you make a Productivity Pc build for 3 budgets
can you please do tier list for x870 series motherboards?
If you go for a all white PC gaming setup, you must get the Steel Legend models from Asrock, GPU and mobo shares the same white desgin, looks amazing.
Hi @TheMysteriousTech , do you have a video on choosing atx matx and itx?
I wish I had watched this video a year ago. 👍🏿

I would love to see an optimization video for games on windows…
My build is almost exactly the high end build, except I opted for the Asus prime 5070 TI to save a lot of money. But at the end of the day the build still came to around 2.5k since I live in europe 🙃
PSU Seasonic ... or Carsair the same Seasonic with Corsair branding... The last is for the case of custom options or a very attractive price for the device.
Good builds, no doubt, but I'd use Asus Tuff motherboards for high-end builds...
Masked genius thank you
Are you going to do a new list for Q2-3 2026?
Hey bro, have you made a video on the best build around the $5,000 mark? I’m currently in the market but it’s all dam confusing lol
