Gaming & simulation
Start with RX 6600 or RTX 3070-class options for 1080p gaming; an RTX 3070 can also suit 1440p with sensible settings. Newer demanding games may need reduced textures or effects.

How this PC fits your workload
Our best-use assessment is based on this build’s components and the software requirements linked below.
Streaming & recording
OBS hardware encoding lets a compatible GPU handle video encoding while the CPU runs the game and other tasks. RTX 40/50-series options add AV1 hardware encoding; RX 6600 and RTX 30-series use H.264/HEVC. Match the codec to the platform.
Video & photography
Good for HD video projects and getting started with editing. For frequent 4K work, choose a build with at least 32GB RAM.
3D & game creation
Useful for learning modelling and smaller scenes. For Unreal Engine development, a 32GB RAM build is the better starting point.
Coding, audio & multitasking
6 cores / 12 threads and 16GB RAM suit coding, an IDE, browser research and multitasking. VM counts and audio buffer performance depend on the actual project, interface and software.
Local AI experimentation
Choose a supported NVIDIA RTX option for the broadest fit with CUDA-based local tools. More VRAM allows larger models or scenes; system RAM does not replace dedicated graphics memory. Check the exact runtime and model requirements.
Choose the graphics for your work
The recommendations below start at RX 6600 or better. Each link selects an actual available GPU option on this same PC. Use the price and availability shown above for the selected option.

Who should choose this build?
Start with this PC if you want 1080p/1440p gaming, school & first creative projects. The 16GB memory configuration is better suited to gaming and lighter creative projects than large simultaneous production workloads.
Why the components work together
AMD Ryzen 5 8400F handles the application work; 16GB system RAM holds active projects and multitasking. The NVMe storage holds the OS, apps and working files, while the GPU supplies game rendering and supported creative acceleration. System RAM, GPU memory and SSD space each solve a different problem.
This CPU does not provide an integrated-graphics fallback; use the dedicated graphics card for display output. GPU hardware encoding handles supported capture and export workflows.
Plan your setup around the job
For colour-sensitive photo and video work, pair the PC with a suitable calibrated display. For streaming, plan upload bandwidth, a microphone and the destination’s encoder settings. For audio, match your interface and plugin requirements. Future hardware changes should be checked against the motherboard, case clearances, power connectors and cooling before purchase.

Is this an assembled PC or a box of parts?
This is a complete Groovy Computers PC listing with Windows 11 Pro activated and preinstalled. Component-only bundles are listed separately.
Which graphics card do I receive?
The exact GPU option selected above determines your graphics card. Recommended configuration links below select that option; prices and stock are shown in the purchase area.
Are storage upgrades or extra hard drives included?
Only the storage in the specification table is included. No optional 4TB SSD or 8TB HDD is part of this listing.
Does this include my creative apps, games or monitor?
Windows 11 Pro is included as listed. Games, Adobe subscriptions, Blender assets, paid software, monitors, keyboards and other accessories are not included unless explicitly named.
Can you guarantee a particular frame rate or render time?
Results depend on the selected GPU, game or project, resolution, settings, drivers and software version. The linked comparison guides help narrow your choices; their results are not a benchmark of this exact assembled PC.
How do warranty and support work?
Groovy Computers advertises a one-year warranty on PC builds. Individual components may have separate manufacturer coverage subject to eligibility and terms. Contact us with this configuration for help and review our refund policy before ordering.

Select this exact configuration ↗Match the task before choosing
The recommendations here match the listed DeepCool 700W 80 Plus Bronze against the GPU family’s reference power guidance. Higher-power GPU options need a confirmed power-supply configuration before ordering.
RX 6600 options focus on 1080p gaming, everyday use and photo work. NVIDIA RTX options add NVENC recording and streaming, with AV1 encoding on supported RTX 40/50 models. Choose 32GB+ RAM for larger video projects, 64GB+ for heavy multitasking, and enough GPU memory for your 3D scenes or compatible local AI model.
Gaming resolution and settings, creative codecs and plugins, and local AI model size all change the result. We do not treat one GPU test as a benchmark of every PC.
