Recommendations for PC builders?

[cpugeek21]

I’ve had my fun building PCs 10 years back, and while I do know my way around the parts, I have had more cases of BSODs that I had to painfully diagnose, buy new parts for etc…

I really don’t want to do that anymore, and am willing to pay a bit extra for peace of mind. In other words, a number I can call to pick up my PC and do all the diagnosis and repairs for me, rather than having to self-diagnose and RMA individual parts. In that sense, a place like PC Themes where they build the PC but I have to handle my own repairs isn’t for me.

Any suggestions? So far, i think Invader PC seems like quite a good option. Any others I should consider?

PC usage: Gaming (mainly CS2, as well as some other Steam games like Spiderman etc.)
Goal: 1440p gaming, > 200 fps for CS2 as I have a 144hz monitor
Budget: Undecided, but it seems like I can get my requirements for ~$1.3k on Invader, cmiiw

Rly invader ar? Any idea what's a good price point for 1440p gaming these days? Not trying to be spoonfed but nowadays there's so many freaking products, I rly cannot go and do research one by one.

All I know is that Ryzen > Intel these days, and AMD > Nvidia (for FPS, if we are looking at the same price).

But exactly which Ryzen CPU to get idk, and seems like the $1.3k budget would get me the RTX 5060Ti / RX 7800 XT, which I'm not sure is sufficient for my needs / future-proof enough. I'm willing to up my budget a little more if necessary.

Invader PC is Dynacore. So if you trust Dynacore then why not.

QFT - non-prebuilt brands are offering onsite pickup and return at small fee like 90 sgd [3y] - dun need to carry in for 3y.

There are more platform if compared to 10years ago. Better to scoll to their GPU pricing then see how it goes too

Prebuilt = dell/MSI/ASUS in this case

at least a RTX 5070 or equivalent for 1440p gaming at a decent fps. any processor that has 8C16T will be able to run ur games smooth. As for m/b, go for PCIe 5.0 support for GPU will do.
And no need to do future proof now, Technology advance too fast now. Just buy that suit ur budget n need will do.
