Thoughts?

Overall, it's well built, but there are some simple improvements that can be made. For Ryzen, get DDR5 6000 CL30 instead of CL36. The 990 Pro is way too expensive right now. A less expensive NVMe like the SN850X or Crucial T500 will work almost the same. The NH U9S is also small for the price. A The

After years of hard work PC died. I have 1800$ would you build that or is it ass?

Get the Corsair 4000D Frame rather than the Airflow, should even be 5-10$ cheaper. Get a Montech CENTURY II instead of the Pure Power PSU. You're overpaying a bit for the GPU because of the model. At 169.99$ you should get a MSI B850 GAMING PLUS WIFI rather than the Asrock board, it'll give better f

Here we go again....

That’s a good build overall, but I have a few minor suggestions… You’re paying a lot for that 6000/CL34 memory. You won’t notice any difference with 6000/CL36 memory and it saves you £85. Take £35 of that savings and get a larger capacity SSD. You’ll be surprised how fast you’ll fill a 1TB SSD with

Pc build for my girlfriend

I hoped she'll like the look and performance. For the CPU, I picked the 7800X3D. It's a great gaming cpu. It stays cool with a 360mm, white, RGB AIO cooler. The white motherboard has wifi and extra M.2 & DIMM slots for future upgrades. The build has 32GB of white RAM and a super-fast 2TB PCIe 4.0 SS

First bulid ever , are those parts good?

Not too bad, that cpu is overkill if your main priority is gaming. Most games will use 4-6 cores so having a cpu with 16 cores is unnecessary so stick with the 9800x3d or a 7800x3d. The nzxt kraken elite is a shit AIO compared to other AIOs. Consider the corsair titan rx, arctic liquid freezer iii,

£500.(yes its a small budget but im broke) i live in the uk (upgrade)

The very marginally faster 5600G is the same price. Will certainly handle Rocket League on ultra-low, but personally I would switch a few priorities around.

My 2K Gaming PC Build (Sapphire Nitro+) — Feedback Welcome!

I like ALL of your choices. The only thing i would change is spend a little more and get a Crucial T500 or WD SN7100 for the SSD. A WD SN5000 is also a better option and cheaper than the previous two if budget is tight.

How would you improve this for £300/$400?

That Samsung drive is really fast, but unless you're using it for work it's a bit pointless. Look into real world gaming performances of gen 4 vs gen 5 ssd's. Spoiler alert there's close to 0 difference. That being said you could still make an upgrade to the ssd. There are 2 nand types in ssd's, QLC

Looking to build my first gaming PC for between $2.5-3k, would really appreciate your help!

Yes there is a pretty big difference, but it's one you pay for. The silicon power ssd is a good, budget-oriented nvme disk. It's older-generation, using pcie 4.0, and doesn't use the highest quality components. It is a perfectly good ssd and will give you a good gaming experience at a value price. T

Sanity check: Mac Mini M4 Pro (64GB) + DIY 40Gbps 4TB Drive for Local AI. Am I doing this right?

That makes perfect sense! A 6GB model would definitely load in a blink even on TB4. For my coding and heavy-lifting tasks, my AI actually recommended aiming for the 70B/72B class models eventually, which means I'll be tossing around 40GB+ files. I figured it is better for my budget to just buy the 8
