PC Build Compatibility + Cost Guru

Complete compatible part list (CPU to case) with current prices that beats any prebuilt at the same budget. Fill out the required inputs and get an expert recommendation for your exact scenario!

‍

• Perfect tool for anyone, especially gamers, looking to list out a perfect PC build
• Great for those looking to build the PC themselves
• Can also be used by anyone looking to determine the right Specs or hardware they need

We factored in the standard variables that go into PC builds such as budget, your use case, GPU preferences, styling choices, etc. There are limitations with this tool especially when it comes to gamers looking for recommendations for unique scenarios, such as maximized FPS builds, or those ultra high end PC rigs built to go to the moon and back. This comes with other factors that we decided to include in other tools like monitor choice and the need to require example games they will be playing, and the accompanying settings that you are running, so this tool is limited to the PC components only to remain universal.

Here is a sample output for a modern scenario. Someone looking for a 1440p gaming setup on a realistic $1500 budget. They have no GPU preference and want tasteful RGB and a standard full tower case.
