    I plan on building a PC and I want max settings in games like Microsoft Flight sim 2020 So I need 32gb of RAM my preferred GPU is a 3080 but I can push the budget a little but I'm trying to spend USD $1500 but I live in a state with no sales tax I like RGB but I want to spend as much money on things to improve performance. My question is if its possible to get a 3080 R7 32gb build for 1500?

    Well, it depends on what your CPU is now, since it is a large factor in performance.

    Seems to me like you could chuck some more ram and a better GPU in there, but otherwise don’t blow $1500 on a PC if you already have a working one.

    He can’t actually, the 9750h is a mobile chip, so it’s in a laptop. If he wants a desktop he’ll have to build from scratch.
