2500€ Gaming PC Build – Jan 2025

Here is a build targeting 2500€ with the main focus being 1440p with ultra settings and very high framerates and also an excellent 4K gaming experience.

All prices are based on Portugal stores and other shops outside the country.

Parts

An upgraded version of the gigabyte motherboard used on the 2000€ build, with WI-FI6 and better VRMs that allow for more stable overclocks.

Paired with 8 cores and 16 threads this CPU is the pinnacle of single-core performance and it will excel and deliver performance on games that other CPUs below this one could not do, it also comes with a huge uplift in price but it’s worth it if you can afford it.

Link

This AIO watercooler is mandatory especially on overclocking scenarios and also because this CPU does not come with an included cooler, you may want to switch this cooler if you are doing serious overclocking.

Great card for 1440p with ultra settings and very high framerates, 4K gaming with this card is also really good, I could only find 1 card below 1130€ depending on the price it can be a good alternative to the AMD GPU.

Link

Great card for 1440p with ultra settings with very high framerates, 4K gaming with this card is also really good due to the 24GB of VRAM, I could only find 1 card below 1040€ depending on the price it can be a good alternative to the NVIDIA GPU.

Link

One of the best kits with blazing fast speeds without blowing your wallet, especially important because AMD CPUs love memory speed and you may gain some performance in specific scenarios.

Link

Very Fast NVME storage with plenty of space for apps and games. As always, be sure to look for sales to get the best deal.

Link

I would say an upgrade compared to the Montech X3 of the cheaper builds, good case with multiple fans pre-installed that help the ventilation of the machine, and looks really good.

Link

Excellent power supply from a good brand and with 80 PLUS Platinum certification, also since it’s a 1000w unit, it still has some headroom for this build to allow for overclocking and extras.

Alternatives and recommendations

There’s actually some stuff on this build that can be mixed based on your preferences.

Starting with the CPU Cooler, it was already mentioned on the 2000€ build that if you want to do some serious overclocking you might reach this cooler limit and you might want to upgrade it to something better, with this one this will happen even faster.

On this price range depending on your workload and if you stream or not you might want to upgrade to 64GB, it’s not mandatory but it might be a good change that can improve your multi-tasking capability on this machine.

Probably not for this build but if you can afford it I would go to a titanium PSU that will reduce the amount of heat and the efficiency of the machine.
