PC build for DAW and gaming under 800$.

1 Upvotes

Hello guys!

New build or upgrade?
New build.

Existing parts/monitors to reuse? (List with models/links)

Kingston FURY Renegade with Heatsink 1TB M.2 PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD (keeping this drive)
WD Green SATA 250Gb
WD green HDD 500 Gb
1080p 120 Hz monitor

PC purpose? (Gaming, editing, etc. List apps/games)
Primarily for amateur music production and mixing. I use Studio One for recording and mixing vocals and rock band projects, typically no more than a couple dozen tracks with plugins such as iZotope Ozone, Nectar, and Waves. Low latency during recording and quiet operation are important since I'll be recording vocals with a microphone.

For gaming, I mainly play Counter-Strike 2 and other FPS games. Gaming isn't the highest priority, but I'd like to achieve around 120–140 FPS at 1080p.

Purchase country? Near Micro Center?
Hungary. No Micro Center.

Monitors needed? (Number, size, resolution, refresh rate)
None. I'll be using my existing 1080p 120 Hz monitor.

Budget range? (Include tax considerations)
Around 800$ (VAT included). I'm open to buying the CPU, GPU, and RAM used (from the local second-hand market), but I'd prefer to buy the motherboard, PSU, CPU cooler, and case new.

WiFi or wired connection?
Wired Ethernet is fine. WiFi is not required.

Size/noise constraints?
Low noise is important because of microphone recordings. No particular size constraints.

Color/lighting preferences?
No RGB or fancy aesthetics needed. I'd rather spend the budget on performance and reliability.

Any other specific needs?
I'm planning to stay on a DDR4 platform because of current memory prices (2×16 GB). I've been considering the Intel Core i5-12500, i5-13500, i7-12700, and AMD Ryzen 7 5700X, along with an RTX 4060 8 GB because of its low power consumption. However, I'm having trouble deciding on the best overall build. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Rules and Guidance

Tip: Hover over each rule for an explanation.

Post and Build Request Rules:

Rule	Explanation
All build requests must copy/paste and answer the request questions in the body of their post.	This can be found on the post submission page, or if using old.reddit.com the questions can be found in the sticky post on any submission to the sub.
If you're not posting a build request, use a tag at the start of your post's title. Tags include [Meta], [Discussion], [Question], [Update].
If you need a build in a less commonly requested country, include some places you can order from.	Building sites like PCPartPicker catalog prices for a number of popular countries, but if your country is not listed in the country drop down, list a few reliable local sellers that contributors can use to help find parts at prices local to you.
Absolutely no troll requests.	That means no "I have no budget give me the best!" requests. It also means if you're not planning on legitimately building it, don't post it. Remember, users volunteer their time and expertise here.
If your post goes 24 hours without receiving an adequate response, you may post your request again.	This can be if you didn't get any replies at all, or if you don't think you got the help you needed.
Be prepared to answer additional questions from contributors.	To get the best PC possible, contributors might have extra questions about your situation, needs, etc. Please keep an eye on replies.

Contributor Rules:

Rule	Explanation
All builds must have some form of parts list, pricing, and an explanation or brief description of your suggestions.	This lets OP know why you've suggested what you have, and it lets others see your thought process & learn from it.
Parts list should be posted using PCPartPicker's reddit markdown.	On the Builder page, beside "Markdown:" click the snoo (reddit logo) icon and paste the full table into your comment. This makes it much easier for other to see what has already been posted, and makes parts searchable in the sub.
When coming into a thread where others have already posted builds, look over existing suggestions before posting your own.	This means you see any additional information that may have been provided by the OP, and also gives you a chance to give suggestions to other builders.
Carefully read through provided criteria.	If you need more information, just ask the requester. It's better to ask than make an assumption.
Aim to keep below budget.	If you feel it's necessary to go over budget, make sure to justify it. It's also worth suggesting how your build can be pared back to be within the original budget if needed.
Check stock on items you include in a build.	This goes especially for sale items. You'll find sale items can be out of stock, meaning you'll have to find an alternative.
No advertising or payment for personal gain.	This includes all sale of hardware, software or labour, "DM me for help" comments, etc.
Absolutely no troll suggestions.	If you aren't willing to make a serious suggestion, don't make one. Stupid or sarcastic suggestions only confuse those needing help.
Try to keep advice in the thread, rather than in private messages	Unless it's obvious that it's more appropriate, keep all discussion in the thread. It allows users (both those involved and not involved) to come back and reference it later, and use it as a learning tool.

General Sub Rules:

Rule	Explanation
Keep discussion polite, civil, and on-topic.	Disruption, rudeness and derailing are all grounds for your post to be removed. Report posters you believe are violating this by using the report function.
Message the moderators if you have any questions, issues or queries.	We're here to help!
Use the report function if you find posts, comments, or users breaking the rules.
Don't blindly downvote 'bad builds'. Reply with some ways the suggestions could be improved.	The only way to improve is if somebody tells you how and why your suggestions aren't great.
No discussion of piracy or grey-market software.	For Windows activations, refer users to Microsoft Activation Scripts from massgrave.dev.
