Custom PC Tycoon Income Calculator

A relative score for pads × part band × Premium, not an official Cash formula.

Income Calculator

Income in Custom PC Tycoon is a fraction of placed value about every 20 seconds. This tool multiplies how many pads you filled by a band weight (cash, Gold, Diamond, Sunstone) and optionally adds the 10% Roblox Premium boost. It does not scrape your account and it does not promise a Cash number.

Use it when two spends look similar. Pair the result with make money and the tier list.

How to read the score

A higher score means “this layout should drip more,” not “you will earn X Cash.” Empty pads count as zero even if you own the furniture. That is why eight cheap complete PCs can beat one Sunstone tower — toggle the sliders and watch the gap.

Desk and server sliders assume a filled setup, including peripherals on desks. If your desk is a naked tower, treat it like a podium. Details sit on desk setups and server setups.

Suggested experiments

  • 3 cash podiums versus 1 Gold desk.
  • 8 cash podiums versus 4 cash podiums + 1 desk.
  • Diamond row with Premium off versus on.
  • Sunstone band on 2 servers versus Sunstone on 8 podiums.

If the score says “buy the pad,” go buy the pad. If it says “raise the band,” open PC parts or how to get Sunstone.

Progression checklist for the unlock list. Codes if a boost will cover the next 10 minutes. Build and sell when you are ready to swap a pad. Scripts are not a calculator upgrade.

Worked comparisons

Try three cash podiums against one Gold desk. If the desk wins, you still need those three podiums first. The desk slider assumes you already converted. Try eight cash pads against four cash pads plus one filled desk. That is the usual mid-game fork.

Turn Premium on and off on a Diamond row. The 10% looks small on one pad and large on a full lot. That is why Premium matters more after you follow make money.

Lie to the sliders and the tool becomes fan fiction. Count complete setups only. Then spend with PC parts or desks and servers, not with a screenshot of the score.

After you like a number

Close the tool and walk to the shop. A score that never becomes a purchase is a toy. Buy the pad or the part, place it, and come back if the next fork is unclear.

If the Sunstone band looks unbeatable, remember the convert cost on how to get Sunstone. A high band on two pads can still lose to a mid band on eight. That is the only lesson this calculator exists to teach.

Write the two options above the sliders before you drag anything. Option A: another podium. Option B: a GPU. Set the pads to match each story. The higher score is the spend. Then close the tab and go to the electronics store. If you adjust sliders until the answer you wanted appears, you did not need a tool. You needed a friend to say no. Use getting started if you still do not have a complete PC to measure.

If two scores are within a few points, buy the cheaper pad. Ties should go to more slots, not to a prettier band. Recalculate after the purchase with the new pad count so the next argument is honest. The progression checklist will tell you if that cheap pad was a gate you skipped.

Premium on a thin row is a rounding error. Premium on eight pads and two desks is why some players keep the subscription. Toggle it last, after the pad story is set, so you do not hide a missing podium behind a 10% glow.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to the most common questions.

Is this Custom PC Tycoon calculator exact?

No. The live game never published a public formula. The score is a relative comparison.

Does Premium change the result?

The toggle adds 10%, matching the standing Premium income boost.

Should empty desks count?

No. Only filled setups earn. Leave those sliders at the number of complete pads.

Can I use this on mobile?

Yes. The sliders are large enough for a phone. Landscape helps if the keyboard opens.
