Has anyone had any luck finding one recently? Any people to follow or places to check frequently? Anyone else looking or thinking of building a new machine in the near future? What's your ideal hardware right now (within reason)?
My gaming machine is 4+ years old (maybe 5) now and starting to show its age. I have an i7-7700k and a GTX 1080. I really need to update my CPU and I'd love to have a 3070ti or 3080ti. Maybe a 3060ti, but I'm not sure how happy I'd be with it long-term.
I've been debating going ahead and upgrading my motherboard, case, RAM, power supply and CPU, but it seems that a prebuilt might be the only way I get a graphics card. So upgrading anything now could end up being a waste.
What I'd like, ideally, depending on prices -- An all-white build, with orange RGB, because, you know, VOLS.
Motherboard: Suggestions?
CPU: i5-12600k
Cooling: Corsair H150i (in white)
Ram: 32 GB DDR5 (maybe?)
Graphics: 3070ti or 3080ti
Power supply: Thoughts on wattage/brand for this build?
Case: Corsair iCUE 5000x or Corsair 5000D (the white version of both)
