    Posted: 16 Apr 2020 at 11:35am
I'm looking to buy a new PC for no more than 2000 dollars, but have no clue what to actually buy. I know I want an nvidia gpu that's at least a 2060 SUPER, but will probably have to get a 1660 ti or something slightly lower than that to fit my budget. I also want an intel chip but I don't know how cheap of a cpu I can get without hurting my system's overall preformance. I also want, specifiaclly, the Corsair LL series fans and Vengeance RGB 16 gb ddr4, but other than that I have no clue what to get (I dont even know if i want a lumos, velox, or what!), so any suggestions would be helpful.

The Smart Guys® will be along shortly. I do know that in order to really nail down what would be best for you and your budget you're going to have to let them know what resolution you're going to be using.

Welcome to the forums.

Take a look at this config:


Digital Storm Desktop - Config ID 3004812

To see it, go to the DS main page and in the upper rihgt you'll see "Load Config" Click that and a window will open where you can enter the ID (number only) above.

With the $200 dicount, it comes in at $2031, and includes all you ask for except the Corsair fans, but does include DS RGB case fans.

-i7 9700K CPU
-16GB Corsair Vengeance RAM
-more solid ROG Strix mobo than the basic one
-850W Corsair PSU for plenty of overhead
-A new offering 500GB Firecuda M.2 NVMe for a super-fast
primary drive (5 times faster than a SATA SSD)
-RTX 2060 SUPER GPU you wanted
-Dual fan radiator AIO cooler for no-compromise CPU
cooling.
-Lynx case with tha comes with RGB light strip and RGB
fans

There are virtually no compromises in this rig to get almost dead on your budget. You can even get the free stage one overclock on the CPU if you want to.
