Is there a community that advises PC builds?
Title says it all - all I see is a buildapcsales bot that scrapes Reddit. Would love to chat with folks about my budget and goals and get suggestions (if that community exists)
Thanks!
I know it's not what you asked for, but I highly recommend PC Part Picker. Whenever I build a new PC I find it really useful for seeing other builds, as well as it doing the hard work of finding prices for me and checking compatibility between components.
Definitely part of my research!
Thanks! Searches weren’t having it come up
You may already have seen it, but I've found Lemmy Explorer to be much more useful for this kind of search than the native Lemmy search function.
Not a community, but I recommend logicalincrements.com if you're starting with a build. Pick a budget and it gives 3 different, balanced builds that match that budget. Use that as a starting point and modify from there
This is great thank you!
In addition to !buildapc@lemmy.world there’s also !buildapcsales@lemmy.ml and !buildapc@lemmy.ca
Not a community per se but I've found this website to be pretty great for getting ideas etc for various budgets and use cases. Full disclosure, I've never dug into any background on the site owners etc, so no idea if there terrible or whatever.
