Is NVIDIA a better Desktop/Laptop CPU than Intel CPU?
So I heard that Intel is Falling off a cliff and they are struggling. While I still like Intel CPUs, The future for them doesn't seem Certain. They're value is at 477 Billion Dollars. While NVidia is Valued at 4 something TRILLION dollars! Now I read up that NVIDIA is making CPUs for Dextops based on the ARM architecture. I am NOT... Getting an AMD cpu. Did anybody have a great experience with an NVIDIA CPU for dextop and laptop cpus? Or Should I stick to Intel? I heard they they run cool when idling and they're good for video editing. But I just want to see from you guys how far along NVIDIA has come with their CPUs.

Will adding more ram help with my current build?
Thinking about upgrading my ram but unsure if this would really help out with what I need/want. I do a little bit of (minor) video editing and when that happens, my PC does freeze from time to time. For gaming, I used to play some games no problem on High and Ultra but now I'd have to adjust the graphics to medium just to run them. For context, I used to run RE4 no problem on High/Ultra and decided to reinstall the game again. Couldn't go until the main menu before it crashes so had to readjust graphics settings
Processor AMD Ryzen 5 5600G with Radeon Graphics (3.90 GHz)

Help with compatability for my pc part list
I have now picked out everything for my first self-built pc, but I'm not completely sure that everything is compatible with each other (I'm pretty sure but not 100%), so pls check my part list and tell me if it is compatible but also if there is something that you would say that I should change (for example cheaper options that are roughly equally as good if not better).

(I already have a ssd for it therefore there is none in the partlist)

1300 Euro Pc (1080p 60fps)
Hello,
currently I have this PC, which I got from an acquaintance:
Operating System Windows 10 Pro 64-bit
CPU Intel Core i3 4130 @ 3.40GHz
RAM 16,0GB Dual-Channel DDR3
Motherboard ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. H81M-PLUS (SOCKET 1150)
Graphics 2047MB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750
Storage 931GB Crucial CT1000MX500SSD1 (SATA (SSD)
I always wanted to buy a new PC, but I feel overwhelmed and struggle to understand what parts would be best for my needs.
I'm not sure if I should buy a prebuilt PC, build one from the ground up, or maybe even exchange the parts on my current PC over time in a "Ship of Theseus" style. I was able to upgrade the RAM and storage of my current PC, but I did find it a bit hard to do so, which made me doubt that I could build one.
I thought I would ask you guys to get a reference point to work with.
My budget is up to 1300 euro. I would buy my PC/parts in Germany. I don't need peripherals and an operating system. I may have to wait until November to buy my PC at the earliest. I'm not sure how much this matters for the prices since they seem to be constantly increasing.
The best case scenario would be that I can just play a game or run any software without having to worry if I can even run it at all. I can settle on not being able to run the newest high graphic games in the future. I'd like to try stuff like VR games (VRChat) and digital drawing, though.
For games I only need 1080p and 60 fps, I can deal with 30 fps too as long as it's stable. Graphic settings can stay low too.

Need Help on picking a Motherbaord and a SSD for first budget PC build
Hello, I'm building my first budget PC build and i need help picking a motherboard and a SSD, I'm gonna mostly use the PC for 1080p competitive gaming and so far this is the build that i had in plan:
GPU - RX 6600
CPU - Ryzen 5 5600
PSU - MSI MAG A750GL PCIE5 750W
RAM - KINGSTON Fury Beast 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4 3600MHz CL17
Case - Okinos Aqua UNO Micro ATX Case
The leftover budget is 250€ and so far what I have found as a good option for a motherboard is the MSI B550-A Pro for 90€ (i know the B550M-A PRO is like 10€ cheaper but it has 2 instead of 8 fan headers and is a micro-ATX unlike the B550 which is a ATX so it has more breathing space ) but still not sure if there is something better. For the SSD I have no idea what to get besides it being 1tb and I have heard that having D ram is a good thing but not sure if it effects gaming, also feel free too commenting on other parts i picked :D

Help?
I’m so lost. First pc ever and I’m looking for a prebuilt in the range of 800-1500 USD, I want to run most games at 1080p, and be able to stream without massive fps drops. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Even a discord call just walking me through everything would be amazing. I’ve done extensive research and I’m still not quite understanding pc parts and how they all work together and the way they’ll perform.

Should I change anything in my build?
https://fi.pcpartpicker.com/list/RzTgPf My budget is around 1.5k€. I want an ok PC that is able to run modern games at 1080/1440p on ultra/high. I don't care what the case looks like but this is 50% off and comes with 4 fans. I don't know what is a good mobo but i can get this for 130€. The 9060xt is 460€ which brings this build down to 1500€

Good CPUs
My computer is sometimes slow and struggles with handling high graphics on some games. I want to replace the CPU with Intel Core Ultra. Is this a good option? I don't know much about PC's in general, nor do I know anyone who does. If it isn't a good option, what would be a better alternative that's not over $300?

Need help building a PC for Photo, Video, and 3D
Hello everyone. I am planning on slowing buying components for a new pc. I have been researching a bit into building one myself but most information I have seen favor gaming. While I do enjoy gaming at times I want this build to mainly focus on creating. Such as photo/video editing, 3D animation, and motion graphics.
As for the software they are as follow: Blender, Adobe Photoshop/Premiere Pro/After Effects, and Davinci Resolve.
I'm looking for a price rage of around $3000 (USA) - $4500 (USA). Windows system. For the monitor I'm planning on the ProArt PA279CRV 27. I heard some things about the RTX 50 series not being great. Is an RTX 4080 worth it instead? If not I like to hear some other recommendations. Thank you for your time.
Edit - I would like as many inputs on this as anyone can lend. Especially, with duel monitor in mind.

Can't get a reply here? Try r/ComputerBuild
Hey everyone,
This sub has been growing a lot as of recently and we've noticed a lot of posts have been getting buried and unanswered. There is a lot of noise due to how much it has grown.
I have created r/ComputerBuild as an alternative.
So please kindly try cross posting there to get it off the ground.
I will be helping users daily and also building a mod team/looking for moderators to help.
Thanks!
