Leave the expensive laptop! Make your own gaming PC for ₹ 50,000, know which parts are required

Nowadays, youth who are fond of video editing and gaming spend thousands of rupees on expensive laptops or branded gaming PCs. But do you know that in a budget of Rs 50 thousand, you can buy your own parts and assemble a great gaming and video editing PC at home? Not only is it cheaper but its performance is also quite good.

A ready-made gaming laptop or PC worth Rs 50,000 in the market often offers weak specifications. But when you choose the parts and build it yourself, you get full value for every rupee. You can choose CPU, GPU, RAM and storage as per your need. This makes the system faster, easier to upgrade and longer lasting.

A good budget build under Rs 50,000 usually comes with these parts: Processor (CPU): 6 core processor like AMD Ryzen 5 5500 or Ryzen 5 5600G. It is good for both multitasking, video rendering and gaming.

Graphics Card (GPU): A card like the Radeon RX 6600, RX 6500 XT or GTX 1650/RTX 3050. With this, games like GTA V, Valorant, Fortnite run in 1080p resolution with good FPS on medium-high settings. Even in video editing, 1080p video can be easily edited in Adobe Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve.

RAM: 16GB DDR4 (8GB x 2) 3200MHz. 16GB is enough for editing and gaming, later you can increase it up to 32GB.

Storage: 500GB or 1TB NVMe SSD. This makes Windows and software load faster.

Motherboard: Inexpensive but good board of B450 or A520 series.

Power Supply and Case: 500-550W good quality PSU and airflow case.

These parts can be purchased from Amazon, Flipkart or local computer market (like Chandni Chowk Delhi). The total expenditure can easily be within Rs 45-50 thousand.

Advantages of building it yourself:

• It is 20-30% cheaper than expensive branded PC.
• If you want, you can upgrade GPU or RAM later.
• Learning is also fun. You can assemble it in 1-2 hours by watching easy videos on YouTube.
• Better cooling and performance is available.
• In gaming, games like Valorant, CS2 can play well at 100+ FPS on high settings and GTA V on medium. In video editing, exporting to 1080p projects is faster.

If your budget increases a little, then 1440p gaming also becomes possible with a better GPU like RX 6600.

Keep in mind:

• Check warranty while purchasing parts.
• If you are building for the first time then take help from a knowledgeable friend or get it assembled from a local shop.
• Instead of spending thousands on an expensive laptop, you can make your own powerful gaming and editing PC for Rs 50 thousand. This will not only save money but will also provide pro level performance.
