T710

Crucial is part of micron the other big dram/nand producer. They offered gen5 drives way before Samsung did. The t705 and t710 are excellent drives, the later outperform the 9100pro in some tests and vice-versa, they are very comparable drives. As to which to get I would say at this level..the cheap

I would recommend a few things Change the GPU. The 9060XT is a great gaming card, but NVidia has a commanding lead in content creation tasks. This is the time to pay extra and get a 5060Ti 16GB. If that is too much for the budget, see about finding a used card from the 3000 or 4000 series. A 3080 or

Far be it from me to disagree with AI, but I'd totally discount it's advice simply because AMD doesn't make a 9860X3D and the Corsair RM8650e would be an 8kW unit requiring a 100A direct mains circuit. /s Parts list looks mostly good. I'd get a bigger PSU, and 100% drop that SSD. Get a Crucial T710

As I'm sure you know, specific colors tend to add to the cost of the PC. I managed an all-white build for $1569, and I'll list a few ways to get the cost down (if needed), as well as a few upgrade ideas. For the CPU, I picked the 9600X. It's a good cpu, current model, for a great price. It stays coo

For the CPU, I picked the 9950X. It's an amazingly fast CPU with 16 cores. It stays cool with a great non-rgb 360mm AIO. The motherboard has wifi, 5Gb ethernet and extra M.2 & DIMM slots for future upgrades. The build has 64GB of RAM and a 2TB SSD, ultra-fast PCIe 5.0 SSD with dram cache. This disk

Here's my suggested build. For the CPU, I picked the 270k Plus. It's Intel's new cpu and it is great for productivity. It stays cool with a white 360mm RGB AIO cooler. The white motherboard has wifi and extra M.2 & DIMM slots for future upgrades. The build has 32GB of white RGB RAM. Storage is handl

That cooler is the best, just not for that case- https://www.reddit.com/r/NZXT/s/K1JqCSUIPu - I'd pick a different aio or case.

Great deal. Looks like Crucial clearing out their stuff. The flagship T710 2tb with and without heatsink is 210/220 too. Not worth it over the P510 for most use cases, but if you have a use for it or just want the best one I think it's the cheapest it's ever been.

Honestly, when you first commented this I wasn't really sure, but now after a few weeks I can say I'm getting a consistent ~4-6 hours of screen on time with mixed web use. For some reason the battery life went up a good amount after swapping the SSD from the included one (was a crap 256 GB drive wit
