It probably will be a good time to build in a month or so with the new Ryzen. Their chips are looking like coming out ahead of intel so I’d definately be looking at the new ryzen and I’d be buiiding. It’s cheaper and you get more bang for you buck.
Graphics cards are still overpriced but Nvidia are soon to refresh their range. Talking of being way more powerful but looking like they’ll use a lot of power so to future proof a little I’d be looking to build with a decent, higher wattage power supply…like 850watts minimum.
Lots of different things to be aware of but that would be the basics.
amd gpu prices are at and sometimes even below msrp. the rx 6600 specifically is a great value at around $300. i payed over $500 for mine lol at a time where it seemed like prices were only going up and stock never being in
