I want a esports 1080p focused build of around 50-55k excluding monitor. Or 70k including monitor.
I’m open to new as well as used parts.
My only issue is, I need it finalised today or tomorrow latest. Any and all help is appreciated.
Open to new and used hardware both, preferably from the dealers in this forum.
You need to extend your budget by another 8k to accomodate a monitor.

Is a 5060 considerably better than a used 3070? And what are your thoughts on 5600x vs i5 12400?
The 5060 benefits from modern architecture, newer DLSS frame generation support, and lower power draw, while the 3070 may offer higher raw performance in certain scenarios and can have issues with inconsistent frame pacing or crashes at 1440p.
5600x Vs 12400
Used market all the way, I remember spending 55k 10 years ago on brand new setup with relatively cheaper monitor and it was still not great for long.
If you choose to buy used, try to get something which is not more than 2 generations old.
I’m thinking of a 5600x and 3070 or 12400 and 3070.
You can new 5600x or 12400 but an used 3070 will not have much warranty and if anything goes wrong then again you have to buy another GPU right. So think again before going for an used GPU .
I have 5600X in one system and 12100 in another, maybe it’s motherboard issue but I keep getting audio issues on 5600x system.
Even I used to get timeout issues in my RX6600XT and 5600x setup because of Win11 update and MS or AMD didn’t fix them. So I upgraded to AM5.
Check the event viewer once.
Currently I’m using 5600X system for casual gaming and yes, problem started after upgrading to Windows 11, maybe I’ll just downgrade to windows 10 until newer games stop working on it.
