    Hi All,

    Considering there are many computer / gaming enthusiasts on this forum, can someone please assist in providing the specifications on a new gaming desktop computer. Must run latest games. Would like to spend no more than $8K. This will be an gaming computer, some video editing.

    I am located in Australia so any links to some already built systems would be helpful i.e MSY, CPL, Dell Alienware. Let me know what you would change in any current set ups etc.

    No curved monitors, something visually crisp like a 4k monitor, maybe 27" monitor. No software needed, just after best bang for my $8K. Let your creative juices flow with the builds, need to buy something before Christmas.

    Apologies if this is the wrong thread. Thank You.

    Processor : I7 8th gen Onwards
    RAM DDR4 4000MHZ * gb *2 must be Dual Channel Activated [ if 4 RAM Slots OnBoard must be 4gb *4 to be Proper Dual Channel Activated]
    SSD : atleast 1tb M2 PCIE Samsung 980 PRO

    This thread hasn't been of little help. I will build my own computer though.

    I've embedded up getting a pc with 64Gb DDR5 and top of the line Intel, 3090 graphics card etc etc
