https://pcpartpicker.com/list/kD2vL9 this should work fine, just reduce all the graphics to the minimums in game. Biggest thing is RAM for all the running processes (8x games and whatever else
heh).
3060 or 3070 gpu is fine, might even be a bit overkill. The 2TB NVME is definitely overkill, but you need the NVME for the RW speeds (read/write). You could save $100 there or so if you go with just a 1TB. (8x d2r x 30gb = 240gb), then 100gb or so for OS and programs, etc.
Other savings to be had:Non-modular PSU could save another $30 or so at the expense of being a PITA to build with and lower quality capacitors (could kill hardware, I never cheap out on a PSU personally). I also prefer modular in my builds...(I've built over 30 computers myself for friends, family, etc).
1TB NVME vs the 2TB could save $100
Case could be cheaper and save another $20-30 depending, but it will be ugly and really cheap.
Notes:I went with older gen tech to save money, if you want to spend more you could get more upgradability out of the platform (longevity) for 5yrs+. This platform is dead, but just for d2r it is good enough for the life of the hardware.
You can donate whatever you think is fair (in fg). cheers
