Someone save me from myself please

That Fifine microphone and interface aren't compatible, it's a USB-only mic with an XLR interface. If you want the interface for easy access to the volume sliders then you need a Fifine AM8 or K688 if you want to stick to the same brand. Otherwise get rid of the interface and just keep the USB mic.

Gutted PC

IMO there's no need for a low-profile cooler like the AXP90-X53. A Thermalright Assassin X 90 SE is cheaper and will fit inside that casing .An AMD Wraith Prism (the one with the heatpipes) is another option, but only if you can get one for cheap. Don't get a WD Green SSD as a boot drive. Those are

Is this legit?

People don't understand that read/write speeds mean nothing. So they will say it's slow just because it doesn't reach the 7000+ Read/Write. When in reality it all comes down to access times and application/gaming traces. Here's a transcript from Tom's Hardware review on the SN5000: "The WD Blue SN50

Moving Resources Into External Drive to Save Storage (Mac Case)

you can just install MacOS on your external SSD and use it as the startup drive and install wuthering waves there. That's what I did and I'm casually playing like I did not have the same problem before with a 256GB HDD. Just make sure your SSD is equally fast as your internal SSD or there will be pr

[Warning] Nimo AI 2L Mini PC (AMD 395) - Structural Design Flaw Shears Motherboard Capacitor

I'll have a different experience with my Nimo 2L. SSD is WD Blue SN5000 as well, but WITHOUT any heatsink at all, so it was not damaged during the shipping :-) I've installed Arctic M2 Pro heatsink, so now everything is fine. And do not try to install any heatsink without a lock or screw fixator, WD

Would this work as an high-end build?

Assuming you're going for a white aesthetic, and that PCPP doesn't have CHF/Swiss Francs as an option, I chose to do GER list. I do not know about local deals/shops/bundles for EU unfortunately. Can usually get more value via RAM & Motherboard/CPU deals lately if you know where to look. https://de.p

Would this build be enough for rust?

What resolution do you play at? If 1440p you probably want a better GPU. Rust likes the x3d chips, would be fine with a 7800x3d to save a bit of money. B840 mobo is not a good idea. B650 or B850 are better choices. Gigabyte eagle or MSI gaming plus are solid. The e100 is not a great SSD for a few re

[W] Looking to buy a PC, open to any specs, ₹20k-₹75k range

you can go with these 2 builds, 7500F + 5060 or 5600 + 9060 xt, the 9060 one will definitely give you more performance in more gpu heavy games and with it's 16gb vram it'll last you many years, tho it's on am4 with ddr4 ram, but it shouldn't matter as long as you're able to play whatever you want, m
