How far would you go to squeeze every last frame out of a $1,000 gaming PC? With Nvidia’s RTX 50-series GPUs dropping in price, I set out to build the fastest $1K rig possible — and see what really happens when you chase maximum performance on a budget.
For those asking, here's the test bench seen in the video: https://geni.us/Ts5jOug
NOTE: I probably wouldn't build the PC featured in the video, even on a $1,000 budget, BUT—if you have about $1,100-1,200 usd, the parts list below is an example of a much better build—and still includes an RTX 5070! (or RX 9070, if you prefer):
