Gaming PC SCUMBUG

🧠 Full System Specs Overview (Updated)

Component	Spec	Notes
CPU	AMD Ryzen 5 3500X (6C/6T, up to 4.1GHz)	Great 1080p gaming chip, but lacks SMT (no hyperthreading)
Cooler	Stock/simple cooler	Fine for non-overclocked setup
Motherboard	Biostar A520MT	Very basic: no PCIe 4.0, no VRM cooling, no overclocking
RAM	16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 3200MHz Lexar	Good dual-channel config, optimal for Ryzen
Storage	256GB NVMe SSD	Fast, but very limited capacity
GPU	Biostar Radeon RX 6600 8GB GDDR6	Excellent value GPU for 1080p gaming
PSU	Antec Meta V550 (550W)	Entry-level, sufficient for current parts but not ideal long-term
Case & Cooling	MSI M100A with 4x RGB fans	Good airflow and looks, helps keep temps down

🎮 Gaming Performance at 1080p (High Settings)

Game Type	Performance
eSports (CS2, Valorant, Fortnite)	150–250+ FPS
AAA Titles (Cyberpunk, RDR2, GTA V)	60–90 FPS (High settings, no RT)
Ray Tracing	Limited – RX 6600 can handle low RT, but best to disable or use FSR
Streaming / OBS	OK for basic 720p–1080p streams, but 6 threads limit multitasking
VR Gaming	Entry-level capable – make sure VR titles are optimized (e.g., Beat Saber, Half-Life: Alyx will work fine)

✅ Strengths

RX 6600: Excellent performance for the price in 2025 for 1080p gaming.
16GB RAM @ 3200MHz: Ideal config for Ryzen CPUs – no performance bottleneck.
256GB NVMe SSD: Super fast system boot and app/game load times.
MSI M100A case with 4 fans: Good airflow, RGB aesthetics.
550W PSU: Enough for current setup with some overhead.

⚠️ Limitations

Component	Limitation	Recommendation
Motherboard (A520MT)	No overclocking, no PCIe 4.0, basic features	Fine for budget, but limited upgrade path
CPU (Ryzen 5 3500X)	Only 6 threads – not ideal for future multitasking or streaming	Can upgrade to Ryzen 5 5600 or 5800X later
Storage	256GB fills up fast (OS + 2–3 games max)	Add 500GB–1TB SSD or HDD soon
PSU	Basic quality, not 80+ certified	OK short-term, consider upgrading for longevity/safety

🔧 Recommended Upgrades (by Priority)

🔺 Storage Upgrade – Add a 500GB or 1TB SSD (SATA or NVMe)
🔧 PSU Upgrade (Optional) – Replace with a reliable 80+ Bronze (Corsair, Seasonic, EVGA)
💡 CPU Upgrade (Future) – Move to Ryzen 5 5600 / 5600X (Zen 3, 6C/12T) or Ryzen 7 5700X / 5800X
📶 Add Wi-Fi / Bluetooth – If needed, use USB adapters or PCIe card

💵 Estimated Value / Resale (Mid-2025)

Condition	Estimated Value
Used / Assembled	$400–$500 USD (depending on region/market)
New (parts value)	$500–$600 USD

📈 Final Verdict

This build is very well-optimized for 1080p gaming in 2025 with solid performance in both eSports and AAA titles. The RX 6600 and dual-channel RAM are the highlight features. The main bottleneck is storage and the CPU’s limited thread count, which can be upgraded down the line thanks to AM4 platform support.
