Powerful Travel PC on a Budget

by Dave T Posted on: 5/23/2024

Build Description

I built this mainly to use as a travel PC, whether for work or otherwise. The entire build cost me less than $1300 total! Chose to reuse the A770 since I bought that around when it first came out, previously used as a secondary GPU.

Favorite Feature

Favorite parts would have to be the 7800X3D and the case, I can fit up to 8 fans in it, and the 7800X3D is currently the best CPU for gaming. Can't complain about Micro Center's bundle deals!
