980

Verify RAM pricing first, possibly actually buy modules to lock in whatever cost you're considering as "acceptable". DDR5 5600 SO-DIMMs, when I've looked, are far from being "discounted" when you don't already own them. In that situation - Not already owning RAM/being able to get it (actually) cheap

şu değişiklikleri yapman seni çok daha rahat ettirir. Seçtiğin B840 anakart aslında en alt seviye model olduğu için o sisteme yakışmaz onun yerine MSI veya Gigabyte tarafında sağlam bir B650 anakart seçmen sistemin ömrünü uzatır. İşlemci tarafında 7500X3D oyun için harika ama eğer bütçeni çok zorlam

that's fair. I peeled the sticker back on my samsung 980 pro 5 years ago and applied a thermal pad & heat sink directly to the ssd controller chip. it's been going strong since. i have good airflow in my case so it's probably not necessary, but still better than just the sticker by itself

980 at 100TBW is probably fine. If you only use one, I’d pick the Samsung and keep backups. Any reason you can’t run both?

I have no idea. But typically i would backup 2x then wipe as part of doing firmware. Apparently there is a generation of Samsung nvme 980, and 990 firmware that cuts the functional ssd lifespan to half. Which is why I commented.

With you on the UM773. Barebones, 32 Gb Kingston DDr5 and a 1tb Samsung 980. All in $550. Cooling fan later and it’s my desktop work daily driver. If I knew it wasn’t going to last, I would have gotten another more bougie one late 2025.

Sadly i do the same as u/davidthek1ng too because its the easiest and laziest way out, but it's also the most risky and unadvised method to go about doing this, we should all be installing a secondary OS on a separate drive. It doesnt need to cost a fortune, it just needs to be a basic 128GB or 256G
