Terms, Disclaimer & Disclosure
PC Balance provides comparative hardware estimates and educational decision support. It does not provide a guarantee of real-world performance or compatibility.
Performance estimates
Bottleneck percentages, build scores, confidence ranges, workload descriptions, and upgrade suggestions are estimates. Actual results can vary by game or application, settings, drivers, BIOS configuration, cooling, power limits, background software, memory configuration, and individual hardware behavior.
Compatibility
A recommendation to consider a CPU, GPU, or RAM option does not guarantee that it will fit or work in your PC. Before purchasing, verify motherboard socket and chipset support, BIOS requirements, power-supply capacity and connectors, case clearance, cooling, memory compatibility, and any other manufacturer requirements.
Retailer links and prices
Retailer buttons may open third-party search pages. PC Balance does not currently claim that displayed retailer destinations have a particular product in stock, offer the lowest price, or are available in your region. Prices and availability can change without notice.
Affiliate disclosure
Current retailer buttons are intended as ordinary product-search links. If PC Balance later participates in an affiliate program, qualifying links will be marked and the site may earn a commission from eligible purchases without changing the calculator's recommendation logic.
Third-party names and trademarks
AMD, Intel, NVIDIA, Amazon, Newegg, and other product or company names belong to their respective owners. Their appearance on PC Balance is for identification and comparison and does not imply sponsorship, partnership, or endorsement.
No warranty
The site is provided on an informational, as-available basis. Use the calculator as one input in a hardware decision and confirm important purchase or compatibility details with manufacturers, reliable benchmarks, and retailer documentation.
