1,000 – 1,350 zł

The cheapest reasonable entry into 1080p gaming. Decidedly not enough for higher resolutions.

1,550 – 2,000 zł

A good memory-to-price ratio. 16 GB at this tier is rare and a genuine advantage in newer titles.

2,300 – 2,900 zł

16 GB in the mid-range at low power draw. A good 1440p proposition if ray tracing is not a priority.

2,900 – 3,700 zł

A strong alternative to the 5070 Ti, usually cheaper for similar rasterisation performance. Weaker in ray tracing.

280 – 380 zł

The cheapest way into six cores. Limited to PCIe 3.0, which matters little with a budget graphics card.

420 – 560 zł

The best price-to-performance option on AM4, and still entirely sufficient for 1080p gaming.

750 – 950 zł

The cheapest sensible way onto AM5. Six cores are ample for gaming, and the low power draw means a simple cooler is enough.

950 – 1,150 zł

Six cores of the newest generation at very low power. Ample for gaming, and it cools with almost anything.

560 – 720 zł

Eight cores at 65 W. A sensible upgrade for someone who already owns an AM4 board and DDR4.

1,000 – 1,300 zł

The last and strongest upgrade for AM4. Worth it if you already own the board and DDR4 — not worth buying the platform from scratch.

1,500 – 1,800 zł

The extra 3D V-Cache gives a gaming lead that synthetic benchmarks do not show. For gaming alone it is hard to beat.

1,150 – 1,400 zł

The strongest integrated graphics on desktop. It games at 1080p and plays 4K with no discrete card at all.

1,400 – 1,700 zł

Very low power draw with strong performance — the best choice for small cases where cooling is constrained by dimensions.

2,100 – 2,500 zł

A compromise between gaming and work: 3D V-Cache on only one core cluster, so it trails the 7800X3D in games while clearly beating it in multi-threaded work.

2,600 – 3,100 zł

Sixteen cores for rendering and compiling. For gaming alone it is overpaying — the 7800X3D is often faster there.

3,100 – 3,700 zł

The fastest processor for games and for work at the same time. The price reflects not having to choose between them.

0 – 60 zł

The cooler bundled with some processors. Adequate to 65 W but loud — swapping it for a cheap tower is one of the best-value upgrades there is.

320 – 420 zł

A 240 mm radiator at a sensible price. It frees the space around the socket and exhausts heat outside the case.

420 – 550 zł

A 360 mm radiator holds clocks through hours of all-core load. It needs a case with room for 360 mm.

550 – 700 zł

The largest off-the-shelf radiator available. It fits few cases — check the specification before buying.

350 – 460 zł

The cheapest way onto AM5. Weak power delivery and two memory slots — for 65 W processors only.

950 – 1,200 zł

Mini-ITX on AM5 with good power delivery. The choice in this form factor is narrow, so the board is picked first.

550 – 700 zł

An inexpensive Micro-ATX AM5 board with sensible power delivery. Ample for processors up to 120 W.

450 – 620 zł

An inexpensive Intel board with six SATA ports — a good foundation for a home server.

2,400 – 3,000 zł

A flagship board with five M.2 slots and very strong power delivery. Only sensible for extreme overclocking.

850 – 1,100 zł

Solid power delivery, Wi-Fi and three M.2 slots. The most sensible choice for most AM5 builds.

380 – 480 zł

A ten-year warranty and full modularity. A sensible choice for a build with a mid-range graphics card.

450 – 570 zł

750 W with headroom for the transient spikes modern cards produce. The most commonly chosen wattage for 1440p builds.

220 – 300 zł

The cheapest supply that can be recommended without caveats. Non-modular, so the excess cable has to go somewhere.

300 – 390 zł

An inexpensive unit at a sensible wattage. Non-modular with a three-year warranty — and the price reflects it.

580 – 730 zł

A quiet unit whose fan stops at low load. A popular choice for builds with a powerful card.

850 – 1,050 zł

The SFX form factor for Mini-ITX cases. SFX units cost more than ATX of the same wattage — that is the price of small.

1,000 – 1,250 zł

The SFX-L form factor is slightly longer than plain SFX, which makes room for a quieter fan. Check the case accepts it.

850 – 1,150 zł

64 GB is the threshold above which 4K editing and rendering stop hitting the swap file. For gaming it is excess.

300 – 400 zł

A sensible 32 GB on DDR4. On AM4 it is worth checking the board holds 3600 MHz stably.

400 – 540 zł

Low-profile modules without tall heat spreaders — necessary under large air towers and in Mini-ITX cases.

270 – 360 zł

The cheapest 32 GB of DDR5. High latency — 16.4 ns against 10 ns for rated kits — but immaterial for office work.

1,100 – 1,450 zł

The fastest sequential read available. In games the difference against a PCIe 4.0 drive is within tenths of a second.

260 – 340 zł

A dual tower with a temperature display. The display is a gimmick; the cooler underneath is solid.

800 – 1,000 zł

A sound-dampened case holding up to fourteen drives. The best choice for a home server living in a flat.

250 – 330 zł

Good airflow and sensible cable routing at a low price. On a first build that makes a genuine difference.

480 – 620 zł

A smaller ATX case with very good airflow. A good compromise when a full tower is too much for a desk.

400 – 520 zł

A compact case that holds six drives and a standard ATX supply — a rare combination in this form factor.

550 – 700 zł

Good airflow in a case that does not look like gaming hardware. A wooden front instead of glass and lighting.

300 – 400 zł

A mesh front and room for long cards at a low price. A good base for a first build.

750 – 950 zł

Under 11 litres while still fitting a two-slot card. Low-profile cooling only — 77 mm maximum.

420 – 560 zł

DDR5-6000 CL30 is where Ryzen runs most efficiently — above it the controller drops into a divided mode and performance falls.

520 – 680 zł

A higher frequency at the same 10 ns latency. Tall heat spreaders — check the clearance under your cooler.

1,300 – 1,650 zł

An alternative to the Tomahawk on the same socket. Four M.2 slots and Wi-Fi 7.

1,050 – 1,400 zł

12 GB of memory at a budget price, which is rare here. The drivers have matured considerably, though older titles can still be uneven.

400 – 520 zł

Four cores for the cheapest builds. Enough for esports at 1080p; increasingly short for new AAA titles.

620 – 800 zł

A cheap option on a mature platform. The F suffix means no integrated graphics, so a discrete card is mandatory.

1,050 – 1,300 zł

A strong mid-range chip with overclocking. A good option if you already own DDR4 and want to keep it.

1,400 – 1,700 zł

Plenty of cores on a mature platform. It draws over 250 W under load — not a processor for weak cooling.

1,150 – 1,400 zł

Intel's sensible mid-range option with an on-package NPU. Good multi-threaded performance and low idle power.

1,600 – 1,950 zł

Plenty of cores for video editing and compiling. It can draw 250 W under full load, so it needs serious cooling.

2,500 – 2,950 zł

Intel's flagship for heavy multi-threaded work. It draws 250 W under full load, so the cooling has to be serious.

170 – 250 zł

DDR4-3200 CL16 is the sweet spot for Ryzen on AM4 — faster kits add very little beyond it.

200 – 280 zł

16 GB is the practical minimum today. Enough for gaming, though it gets tight with a browser open alongside.

350 – 470 zł

A cheaper alternative with slightly higher latency. The difference in games is within a few per cent.

900 – 1,200 zł

Two 32 GB modules rather than four 16 GB ones — the memory controller holds the profile far more easily.

200 – 280 zł

1 TB is the practical minimum — two large games can fill half of it.

380 – 500 zł

A sensible 2 TB without paying for record speeds. For gaming and daily work you will not feel the difference against pricier drives.

480 – 620 zł

Two 160 mm front fans included. It fits the longest graphics cards, the RTX 5090 among them.

700 – 900 zł

A showcase case with two glass panels. It fits three 360 mm radiators, though a front without intakes means poorer airflow on air cooling.

400 – 550 zł

A proven AM4 mid-range board with PCIe 4.0 for the GPU and primary drive, and no chipset fan.

1,000 – 1,250 zł

The newer B850 chipset with solid power delivery. It handles even a 9950X without reducing clocks.

1,500 – 1,900 zł

The flagship chipset with USB4 and four M.2 slots. Only worth it with many drives or a 170 W and above processor.

1,400 – 1,800 zł

Full memory overclocking and strong power delivery — needed for Core Ultra 7 and above, which draw 250 W under load.

780 – 980 zł

A thousand watts with a 12V-2x6 connector included. A sensible base for the fastest cards without paying for Titanium.

400 – 550 zł

The DDR4 version of the same board. Only sensible if you already own DDR4 modules and want to carry them over.

750 – 950 zł

A sensible board for Core Ultra 5. Memory overclocking without CPU overclocking, which costs nothing on non-K models.

1,100 – 1,400 zł

A cult Mini-ITX case fitting a full-size card and a 240 mm radiator in thirteen litres. Assembly takes patience.

650 – 800 zł

The strongest air cooler available. It weighs 1.5 kg and overhangs the first memory slot — check your module height.

300 – 380 zł

A low-profile cooler designed for cases where a tower will not fit. 70 mm tall.

480 – 600 zł

A single tower performing like a dual, while keeping clearance over the memory. The choice when a large tower fouls the modules.

900 – 1,200 zł

The cheapest card of the current generation. Fine for esports at 1080p, a struggle for new AAA titles.

1,250 – 1,600 zł

Sensible for 1080p, but 8 GB is the bare minimum today and some new games will need their texture settings lowered.

1,750 – 2,200 zł

The 16 GB version is clearly the better buy over the 8 GB — the price difference pays off in newer games that exceed 8 GB.

2,500 – 3,200 zł

A good 1440p card with headroom for upscaling. Two slots and a shorter board make it easier to fit in smaller cases.

3,600 – 4,500 zł

The most sensible point for high-refresh 1440p. Its 16 GB leaves headroom for the coming years and for 3D rendering.

4,200 – 5,100 zł

24 GB of memory at performance close to the 5080. Sensible for rendering and AI work, where memory is a hard limit.

5,200 – 6,800 zł

Sized for 4K short of extreme settings. Its 16 GB is enough everywhere today, though the newest ray-traced titles can push against it.

6,000 – 7,600 zł

A 4K card with memory headroom. The gap to the 5090 is markedly smaller than the gap in price.

9,500 – 13,000 zł

The fastest card available and the only sensible choice for 4K at 120 frames with ray tracing. It needs a 1000 W supply and a case it actually fits.

700 – 900 zł

A 360 mm radiator with lighting and a pump display. Effective, though pricier than equivalents without the decoration.

480 – 620 zł

2 TB is enough to keep a game library without constantly uninstalling. The most sensible capacity today.

650 – 850 zł

High sustained write speed matters when working with large video files. For gaming it is overpaying.

900 – 1,150 zł

A drive intended for continuous operation in a home server. Rated for the vibration of several drives in one enclosure.

620 – 780 zł

A very good unit for powerful builds. 850 W leaves headroom with the CPU and GPU both loaded.

1,400 – 1,800 zł

Required for an RTX 5090. Titanium efficiency and a twelve-year warranty, though the price matches the quality.

70 – 110 zł

Cheaper and quieter than a boxed cooler, and it fits in minutes. Entirely sufficient for 65 W processors.

140 – 200 zł

A dual tower matching 240 mm liquid coolers for a fraction of the price. The best performance per złoty available.

160 – 220 zł

Seven heat pipes and two towers. It effectively matches coolers costing three times as much.

380 – 480 zł

A spinning drive for archives and backups. Do not install the system on it — the responsiveness difference is enormous.

1,200 – 1,550 zł

4 TB for large game libraries. High write endurance, useful when working with video footage.
