Please forgive me, of the many things I’ve forgotten…this is…one of them. I could’ve sworn there used to be an updated rolling sticky with 3-4 (maybe more?) build suggestions from ‘meh’ to ‘super ultra mega I can’t afford space kraken’ posted and maintained by people way smarter than I am, somewhere on the main page/sidebar of PCMR.

I’ve got a ~6 year old mini-ITX AMD build that I’m hoping to replace with something similar, and I’d used those suggestions last time with great success. I’m hoping to build something that’ll last another 6 years. If anyone has any idea what the heck I’m talking about, I’d appreaciate you pointing me the right direction.
Thanks in advance!

    I liked it at first, but I find myself disliking Logical Increments the more that I look at it…if only they did a better job of being more flexible, like showing me other hardware that’s similarly priced. Yes, I could pair THIS EXACT processor with THIS EXACT graphics card, but what if something similar is on sale or I just want to see other stuff available in my price range, and see how it compares?

    For example, imagine I’m a shopper that thinks ray tracing and DLSS are very important (I’m not, but bear with me). They’re recommending mostly AMD cards, with no indication of what Nvidia RTX cards have a similar price/performance ratio. Specific features might be a little more important to me than just a benchmark score and a dollar value.
