Hello all,
Last night my PC blue screened and now won’t select proper boot drive so I think it’s time to upgrade seeing as though it was about 2 years old anyway.

Budget: roughly $1500 CAD - can be a tiny bit over
More specific use (what games, what programs): gaming/streaming
Planned time until purchase: ASAP
Do you need an Operating System?: yes
Do you have any specific preferred components?: no
Do you need a sound or wireless card?: don’t think so...?
Do you want stock cooling or do you plan on overclocking?: stock is fine, I never overclock, scared I’ll break it
Do you need a monitor? mouse? keyboard?: no
Zip code/location? (Shipping costs): t2S 0r4

This website helped me a few months ago to build one for my brother and he loves it, hoping you can work your magic to help me out!

Bro I be using a 9 year old pc.. With a newer gpu.
CPUs haven't progressed much unless you edit or stream.
GPUs caught up for 4k res monitors.
Thats about all that changed.

I can build you a new one if you like but feel your bette off fixing what you have imo.

Windows 10
AMD Ryzen 5
32 gb ram
X470 Gaming Plus Motherboard
ATI Radeon RX 580
223 Adata SU650 SSD

This is what I have currently, I do stream and when I’m playing apex legends I need to be on lowest settings to hit 144 FPS consistently
Is it worth just getting a new hard drive and seeing if that fixes it?
