I’m planning on building a PC soon and, while I have done plenty of research, I’d like to hear advice from people who have experience in the area personally. It’s also just nice talking to other people in general, lol

    I found PCPartPicker really useful when I last built a PC:

    https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/

    It helps you pick compatible parts, and links to sites you can buy them from. I’d still shop around for the best price after building your list(s), but it’s a great place to start.

      Ah, thank you! I’ve already been using PCPartPicker, but it has been an AMAZING help. I don’t think I could handle the stress of making a parts list without it

      I’d agree. I’ve built dozens of computers over the years and these days I always use PCPartPicker as the starting point for my builds.
