MSI PC Build Guide

Recently we have reviewed many of MSI products, like motherboard, PC case, CPU cooler are more. So came across this idea of making a full MSI PC build recommendation guild for our viewers and MSI fan boys out there.

Now for the purposes of our full MSI PC building guide we will be recommending following MSI parts as an example for three different complete PCs for different needs and budget.

Key point for the guides

  • Following PC configurations are using AMD Ryzen CPUs only, as we think in current processor scenario only AMD is offering latest cutting edge technology.
  • Many components referred here are from MSI as this is a full MSI PC build guide.
  • Creating three different build recommendations as we all know MSI Motherboard product line is already segmented in three main product series MEG, MPG and MAG considering high, mid, and budget build audience.
  • Component wise price have great variation globally, so we are close approximating the completer PC pricing in current time to $3000 for premium build, $2000 for mid-range and $1000 for budget build (without Monitor, keyboard-mouse, headphone, etc) just the main PC hardware .
  • PCIe Gen 4 NVMe storage are still little expensive right now for the build budget, so we are recommending PCIe Gen 3.0 NVMe storage. But since the motherboard and the CPU both support the technology, the same can be easily upgraded in near future.

These are my hardware recommendations for a full MSI PC build guide according to my likes and choice, to the build budget. We have linked individual products to amazon price listing, but you can also check the pricing locally or from other online retailers as well. All parts are as an example and anyone is free to change any components as per their choice, availability, or budget.

Thanks.
