Need to get this fan tho
does the rjebait work on it though 
looks like you didn't plug in the cable thingy on that fan all the way
Yes
signalrjebait still hasn't responded to my ticket 
Such a cute PC :)
:D
now temper glass peel time
All the rgb
Turn the PC off first
Someone on Reddit managed to kill their RGB by peeling the plastic off while it was on lmao
fn+1 it is then

This is so scary
WHY IS MY MOUSE SO SLOW LMAO

Go to simple mode
i am really bad at explaining things that appear simple and obvious to me
gauss pls help
It should say simple mode somewhere bottom right
You're in advanced mode rn so there has to be a simple mode
mf
I found it
:D
Oh Jesus this isn’t simple
nice vape btw

Do you see D.O.C.P on the left? Click on the box below it and hose the only option
“Profile#1”
Yes
Yes?
Yes
Gave ram higher speeds
gave 52 more fps in valorant
Then go to qfan control
Yes
Adjust fan speed curves
i find these to be utterly useless
Either premade "silent" or do it yourself
The graph you see is a fan speed curve (or graph)
i use a cracked argusmonitor but the other day i saw a free alternative
way more flexible
Oh
smh
Everything else big suck
What CPU and GPU do you have?
@lost fossil do you know if those support resizable bar?
What’s all of this
Your fan headers
Do I do anything to those
probably not
Ye
It’s like going quiet
Oki all done then or?
Just auto adjusts fan curves
Wait do you have windows installed?
No
No
Oh no
I mean yeah but nothing will happen
Let me see
Go get yourself a USB stick with windows on it lmao
It turned black
And not it’s going bye
UGHHHHH
Do I need to have it physically
Or can it be digital
ok
No need for nerd stuff like that :333
well
So I can’t play Minecraft tonight ?
can you mobo fan control do the controlling based on the gpu temperature? 
What
mine can't
you got me there
mine can only do the fucking 16x slot temp, but not the temp of whats in the slot
cory do you have a laptop in your house nobody is using rn
get that laptop and a usb stick
then google windows usb install
click the page from microsoft
they explain how to do it
install windows on that usb
It’s uh

tbf claire
i used the media creation tool with one of my usb drives

new RX 480 i mean 580 i mean 1650 i mean 5500XT i mean R9 I MEAN new cards are coming
cant wait for them to release 160$ GPU with 15% performance increase at 300$
If Arc actually crushed the launch then its pretty much confirmed that the 480-5000 Radeon series is solely Koduri's idea
only if ethereum could launch its difficulty...
we would have a 1.5 year window of basically 0 miner dominating the zone
before people start migrating
what was that about ethereum halting the mining operation
going proof of 🥩 or whatever
Going proof of stake since 2016...
anyone?

Need help finding a good pc at price of 500 or less for gaming warzone, gta rt and cold war plz
in this economy?!
Dude in this economy consoles are king
keep dreaming man 
what's your currency anyway ?
more like 2016 
you'd be low on SSD storage, but a Ryzen 5 and 1060-level GPU? nice enough
he needs a lot of storage tho since he wants warzone, GTA (remastered trilogy i think), and cold war
i heard those games are HUGE
my friend sent me smth interesting
you can buy i9-9900k engineering samples on aliexpress for $150ish
open chip means big cooling potential gains
wonder how it would compare to a 9900T at the same clock

When streaming with a smaller video of yourself/background with the larger being the game,are you able to have a friend join you with another smaller video? Sorry if this sounds confusing
Yes
You can dedicated some part of your other monitor and capture his video into a rectangle
i improved my cable management a little bit
https://i.imgur.com/7kRUu6J.jpg
a lil?
yes 
What case is that?
Looks like a Source 530.
Probably the last good case NZXT made.
fractal r4
Might be the case I'll go to for my next build, assuming they still make it.
Fractal Design Define R6 is the latest model
So do I just download windows off of the Microsoft website and then that is all
I don’t have to pay
yes :happyge:
what you missing as a ground level user is just appearance customization
honestly i would buy gray market or sail the seven seas to delete the watermark 
yes, but there are workarounds
Workaround where how when yes
right click and set as wallpaper on websites
iirc Firefox is the most reliable on this.
Firefox wtf
OHHHHH
That’s so easy
I’m still waiting for this shit to finish downloading on my usb
It’s halfway
What do I do once it’s done
What is
plug and play
Is it on the usb already?
yes
Oh wtf ok
just plug in and run the exe
Did u burn the file you download to the usb
What
Idk tbh I just downloaded it
And plugged it in
Nothing else
Ok so what do I do on the bios
How u downloaded it
Microsoft website thing
And then
Took it out

Do I hit boot menu now
By a Microsoft tool?
Usually boot button is f12 or f11
Then use that
“The system cannot find any bootable devices”

Show me what u see when you search
Windows 10 download
Tbh idk about MAC much but this is the first guide i found
Follow it
the link it told me for step one is the exact website i went to
Hmmm
Idk
Never used macOS
On windows, u download a tool and it does everything for u
i dont get the step 4
diskutil list-<<< u run this command
Can I restart
And then we choose fat32
This is confusing
look for "name(physical,external)"
I’m going to restart
see the name after /dev/
disk2
then see step 4
What
terminal
try run
yeah
Oh god wtf
?
“Finished erase on disk2”
follow from step 5
.
u on the right track
check where your downloaded Windows 10 ISO file is
can u go to where u downloaded your iso file before u transferred it into your usb?
.-.
Why do you guys have to make it so complicated
sorry im not mac user
Oh right it's a Mac lmao
i blame Microsoft for this
I blame Cory for owning a mac

I hate this
sell mac and buy non apple product
I’m just gonna buy it
hassle free
Idc

idkkkkk
buying w10 is buying its key only
@lilac fable try to recall how you downloaded the file into your usb drive
like any path u designated
can't you just extract the iso into a fat32 formatted usb drive? 
No
I'm at least 60% sure I've done this before
The UEFI (not legacy boot via CSM) does not rely on boot sectors, UEFI system loads the boot loader (EFI application file in USB disk or in the EFI system partition) directly.
Doesn't this mean it'll boot using the efi file in the drive?
You can yes, but you have to put a boot loader file in
There need to exist EFI/BOOT/bootx64.efi
That's already in the iso
i could send you the files from my win10 usb
if you want
atleast thats what i think you need?
dd doesn’t work for windows iso’s
Source: waited like 2 hours for a usb only to find out it wasn’t bootable 
oh yipes
Works wonders for Linux iso’s tho
I haven't had to do it in a while but you can literally just have 7zip extract the windows iso into a flash drive
I prefer using rufus for that
unfortunate that dd doesn't work, agh
@fervent granite oh oh hey
Xeon 2650 v3 and undervolting, do you use some program for undervolting on your mac?
how much
less cores
anything will do over a i3 4170
On macOS I just mess with macsfancontrol, on windows I use advanced battery settings
thanks
Opinion on the ryzen 7? Im starting to build pc’s and i need to know what parts i should get
Honestly im dumb so if i seem dense i am
Do you know which Ryzen 7 it is?
Which gen?
Uhh all i know is its this lmao
That processor is one of the best cpus to game on.
Yeah i was suggested it while playing in an xbox party so idk how reliable that source was
Mid, not too expensive but some money to burn
I have a few parts rn
🗿
I have a case, a motherboard, a power supply, and a state drive
I'd go with a ryzen 5 5600x if it's lower than $50 lower than that 5800x
What storefront are you looking at?
Uh idk lmao
Bh photo video
I just googled a site

Jesus Christ, that's cheap.
Yeah, if you're good with spending an additional $30 and can get a decent cpu cooler, go for that 5800x.
@brave field Look at that pricing.
oh yeah
5800x got a global price reduction
5600x dropped to $200 but only at microcenter, and 5800x is $230 there
Might as well go for the 5800x over the 5600x.
depends on how much of the budget is left for the GPU imo
True, that's the big thing
if there's not a whole lot afterwards, I'd even refund the motherboard and move to intel to fit one in
But still, I think that's a massive deal there.
same if the PSU is >650W, or an overpriced case, or a Samsung SSD, etc.
very good deal compared to how its been since launch though, yeah
Man, I wish I had money rn. I need to move away from my 7700k.
Actually... Should I liquidate some of my crypto to buy it.... hmmm....
Nah
It'll likely get cheaper over the summer.
Well, I've been holding most of my crypto since March.
wait for the next bull run
7700k is plenty capable for a few things, and it'll keep its value for a while. If you get a good deal, you can still get $300 or so from selling it and a board
Yeah, that's probably gonna be the plan.
I need to get experience for an internship
1/10th the way to a small house is pretty nice money
Well, I figured dumping all my stimmy money into crypto was the way to go.
I might actually throw most of my tax return in there too, minus tuition and rent.
I do have one prediction though. When the housing market crashes, crypto will also crash hard.
sounds reasonable
Predict anything about cryptocurrency prices and the nearing job market issues?
I'm unsure. I know the omicron variant news caused crypto to crash a little bit.
I guess in the long run, if the jobs market continue to be terrible, there will be a bearish trend.
my pcs setup finally dooone

What's it like?
cable management could be better but i like the finish product
ohhh can we see pics?
im on gta rn chilling w a modder
I meant pictures of your newly built pc
yeaaaahhhh i didnt really build it
oh ok
Im not that good ☹️
no no, I just find it fun when people built their first pc, It's fine
it wouldnt have saved me much both ways
building it wouldve taken 1550, buying it prebuilt took 1600
setup is fine tho, i like it
idk, with a desk like this i'd rather put the pc on the floor
remove the front panel, flip all the fans but the back to intake, and change the PSU
Clean it
I did
that desk is really weaksauce though
idk how to do that

So i got a question but its kinda raspberry technical
Basically i got a project, which i absolutely like have no clue on how to do it, my friend was nice enough to send his code, But its a arduino code, and i go a raspberry, basically is there a way to run arduino code on a raspberry without having to learn the 2 languages in order to translate them?
This is the shortest way i can describe it
does anyone know why virt manager will not pick up my keyboard and mouse and get input from em?
tried removing em from the list and put em back in
still doesnt want to get input
@unborn crane virt-manager referring to the frontend program, yeah? Why pass your mouse/keyboard through instead of the default built-in viewer?
should have a repeat bar use that
find sum... Where do I begin?
It's easy
ignore -1 part we have summation of 9*pi^(2n+1)/2^2n+1 * fac (2n+1)

So umm, I ran a test for my SSD and the write speed is very slow for some reason (Supposed to be at 530 roughly). Does this mean there is something wrong or?
theoritically if i were to plug in a usb to my switch dock could i put games on it or?
@charred otter you could
But the switch doesn't usually load games from USB drives unless its softmodded
hmmm
well i wasnt in graphics class to grab my usb
so i will try it out tommorow afternoon
Also ran a full test, and it's still very low than what it normally was before
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/264417177094848512/891460306646208532/unknown.png Went back and looked at my old test result, and it's much more different than the one above. I'm so confused
welcome to QLC SSDs
So then, this is normal behavior?
Well there's probably more to it
but QLC SSDs are notorious for becoming super slow at writing over time
^yeah
Is there any way to fix this, or is this just something I'm going to have to deal with?
QLC SSDs can just kinda die when doing large writes and much moreso as they get full. You can test another sata port on your board, your drive settings in Windows, and make sure you have chipset drivers up to date, but if everything else is fine, you have to deal with or return it.

i see
tough time neva last only tough people last
If you have a USB drive with nothing you care about on it, do test in a Linux live USB environment to rule out any issues related to your specific Windows install. hdparm is a good tool to try
How would I go about doing that? Do I just install that tool?
yes
-Get everything important to you off of the USB drive you use
-Install some Linux distro (Ubuntu sucks but is easy to install https://ubuntu.com/download/desktop) to a USB drive using Rufus
-Restart your PC, choosing to boot into the USB drive instead of your normal boot SSD
-Choose "Try Ubuntu" or whatever the one that DOESN'T say to install it is called
-System->Administration->Disk Utility, choose your SSD, and click Benchmark
@jovial tideYour old test, same drive?
ye
set it to 1GB at the top and try again
That is different in the two screenshots
It won't change your actual SSD write speeds, which are likely also accurate in the 2GB tests, but it should look closer to the original
Hmm
oh hm, interesting
do try the USB test if nothing else is trying to write at the same time as your testing in task manager then, ye
So uhh....I ran another test just because and....
You may need an exorcist
Is there a reason for the 32bit version of CrystalDiskMark instead of the 64bit one you were using before?
If not really, use the DiskMark_x64 executable instead
Oh, I just noticed. It should be the same one I installed before
Let me boot the 64 one
disgusting speeds , awful
you should experience the true feeling of HDD 
@brave field So, I installed something called "Samsung Magician" which lets me update my SSD when I need to and all that jazz. But it also made me restart my pc. I redid the test and this came up. Im seriously confused
huh
I.....don't know
Is there a different way to test, because im so confused rn
Ill try the linux thing tomorrow since it's pretty late where I am rn
Jesus, did Samsung Magician directly inject steroids into the memory controller?
"Congratulations, your Samsung 870 QVO has evolved into a Samsung 980 Pro"
Probably not going to do anything but try the latest CDM, 8.0.4 is aging
ok lets try this on my HDD

and your used storage is smaller than before.
Remember, even 10-20GB can make a difference in QLC, its that dog slow.
Also, you shouldve asked me when you buy an SSD 
i think with SSDs you should go with anything if you are on a budget
Anything is nothing if it wont last, imo. 
we are no way near GB to GB ratio
HDDs $/GB is getting cheaper way faster than SSDs
if you are going to store some games with it , it will probably last till the next generation of price change
for gaming does gen 3/gen 4 ssds really make a difference from that read write speeds?
yes because theyre still very competitive in creating a more dense platter
no
HDD will always be much affordable than SSDs in term of GB's per $
it literally dont make a difference unless you do high IO operations on it like caching or mining on Chia
icic
Well I never bought it...so yeah
oh
if i want a gen 3 ssd that is fine for gaming while being being below 200 what should i get
well how sub 200 do you wanna go? 
Oh shit you could squeeze in an SN750 or P5 on that
970 Evo plus, SK Gold P31
CS3030, Rocket 4.0
we are at what now?
i think 8-10TB HDD is the price of 1TB Nvme
(all 1TB)
970 evo plus, thats what i currently am slapping into my build
im between sn750 or 970 evo plus

Whats the point in releasing 2060 again 
Hiring old fabs to cover the new gen shortage
What’s the difference between the nzxt aios
actually give me that blame
pretty sure I bought that 2.5 SSD for way cheaper than normal
:madge:
Anything would be better than QLC SSD for a boot drive
Excluding 5400rpm HDD
Also 3080 with 12 gb vram is more of a marketing gimmick
Any from above 8gb is just for editors or light content creation unless you like bottle necking your cpu by playing in 8k

Madam that's a wheel

My calculator battery just exploded 
the point is to re-release an old card with a lil bit more kick so people will buy it because people are so hungry for any decent card
it then will depend on hows the pricing and how well it does against inflation
of course, also the amount they produce
most people would dream of a sub 500 bucks gpu in current markets
Depends on the price tbh
Extra vram is just a gimmick

8gb is sufficient for most games
12 gb is for miners
why does this keep getting spread
6gb is supposed to continue to be overkill for ETH for the next 9 years (which by then, ETH at least should just be starting to transition to ETH2 TotallyForReal™️ )
Every other worthwhile GPU-mineable coin is sitting at DAG sizes in the 450mb-2GB range outside of RVN
Because by now everyone wanna calls everything for miners
Ok so
I've had this phone since September
And for some reason it likes to kick me out of apps
Like all the time
Is it because i dont have space
And need to delete apps
kick you out by closing them while in use and returning to the launcher, or restarting them after switching the foreground app?
Closing while in use
It does it to spotify a lot
weird
should not be a storage issue though, and its unlikely to be a memory one with how aggressive background apps get killed now
Do you get a crash message or something like that?

i dont get the idea behind AMD putting 4GB on the RX6000 budget cards
if anything is stronger than a 580 it should have atleast 6
Bold of you to assume the performance would be strong enough to saturate the VRAM

Ok thank you
1+1=10
No, it is 11. 
wouldn't that be "1"+"1"?
True.

Can 1050 ti run rust gta and minecraft with reasonable fps tho cause price wise 1660 is kinda expensive
yes it can

So the price increase will be high if they put Super Retina XDR display even for iPad Pro 11 inch?
I don't think even able thinks the iPad Pro is a professional device to the levels of the mac pro.
iPhone 12 Pro has that display
And I hope the iPad Air 5 gets announced

I'm a madlad. I bought a domain specifically for a minecraft server with a friend group.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 12GB on sale in France Although RTX 2060 12GB is to launch officially tomorrow, the first retailers have already have started listing the new card. The MSI RTX 2060 Ventus 12G OC listings might be a placeholder. One of them, contrary to the product title, mention 6GB RAM, which suggests one […]

Waaaaaay too much vram for that card. That can only feasibly be used for mining IMO.
how to apply the snowsgiving stickers
texture quality
on cards like the RX480 8GB is a saving grace for this
texture quality improves the gameplay a lot even on low settings
even nvidia gets it with the 3050 8gb
also these cards can run games at 1440P
not the latest but they can
whats the listing

That's great!
In a no covid world this would have been perfect but, there's still a huge shortage

@jovial tide update%
Need laptop with a disc reader for a Warhammer 40k collection
Hi
You don't need a laptop with disk reader, just pay 20$/euro and buy usb reader/writer
Np
@cold elbow you know im right at that budget
Xbox X is awesome
So PC
use void when methods/functions don't return a value
Rule of the thumb is always have return for your important functions, and not use void.
It's easier to test, and debug like that
I highly recommend Deitel & Deitel's book for C++ to easily get the answer for these type of questions
Can anyone help me find a budget prebuild gaming pc that pas these specs as in getting better gameplay at max setting and med for £400
Fuck system requirement, also FiveM relies on GTA 5 as its base anyway so you gonna need to think it in GTA fashion. Whats your budget, first and foremost?
oh, 400 pounds? :bruh:
Honest to god, thats very little budget to go around for new, you gonna need to go used.
Here's my quick make of it:
Dell Optiplex 7040/7020 (Preferably the i7 6700 and i7 4790 model respectively): 100-200$ (here's a good example) https://www.ebay.com/itm/133955187839?hash=item1f3059f47f:g:qXoAAOSwrj1hR3O-
Quadro P2000: Right now stuck at 200$, but theyre usually 150 or below
https://www.ebay.com/itm/324928302505?hash=item4ba73c6da9:g:~dsAAOSwnVxhk46m
umm i have gt210
gt 210 moment
Dell 
its an optiplex, its fine
Still Dell
and if you still hate it, get a new mobo and PSU 
people are poor 
Well if someone says, I want a lambo for 10k$
Are you just being a dick for a sake of making fun of melon or something?
You don't tell them you can buy a trash lambo at scrapeyard
You just smile and say good luck 🙂
People are poor true, but poor can't have gaming PC maybe
as cold as it sounds
Get a console instead 
Dude no decent console sells for 400 pounds
Series S would perform much better
400 pounds = 528$
Than the gaming pc
It costs 300$
Available on best buy
that's great price, 
Also
specifically wants to play fivem
Im sorry but youre just being a bitter child.

in 2021 you just don't buy a gaming pc for 400 pounds/dollars/eypos
Well you can build 5600G/5700G for 500 euro but it's meh
And that's just the case, not the whole system with monitor
i would not call that a gaming pc
Console will give u much better performance for the price
True Sid, but you don't buy a PC just to game on it
As of now most gaming PCs are mostly for gaming
then again Consoles are selling WAY under the price of manufacturing
Consoles and pre builts are the way now
you can't really build a thing when graphics cards started becoming double what they should be
Come to think of it, the term gaming pc is just pretty outdated, way back when you would build a computer specifically to play games on with certain parts, nowadays everything modern and relatively good with a graphics card is a gaming pc.
So the difference between a beefy office computer and a "gaming pc" is whether or not it looks professional, or has rgb and glass everywhere
I disagree Salty
You can use the gaming PC pretty much for anything. You can use virtual machines if you ever want to, you can video edit, you can do all the normal things you do with a PC, and you can game whenever you want to. That's not comparable to a gaming console.
That is why comparing a Computer to any Console is just a dead end
consoles are affordable and meant specifically to play games
Like most people coming here asking for 400-500$ PCs and probably their parents, don't really understand the value of having a good PC.
Pc's do everything
build a cheap pc for doing regular stuff and get a console for gaming
Yes but by the time you cobble the fund for both PC and console, and then the peripherals it doesnt make a fuckall sense.
Okay, then show 
Stating laptop would be fine just nullify saying to make cheap PC
Instead of ya know, buy used or get a laptop
If you get a $450 laptop, say maybe i5/8gb ram/internal or old nvidia card for school, Youtube, work, or whatever people use computers for.
Then get an xbox series x for retail for $500
between taxes, shipping and extra stuff like a controller, a mouse, and others, you'll be coming in at a hot $1100 at the minimum
And RTX 3060ti alone costs 1000$
Series X would give u the similar performance
Nobody in their right mind would pay for the graphics card outright like that in this market. Everyone who is looking for a card just buys a prebuilt with the card they are looking for
Instead of paying $1350 for a 3070, people will just buy a $1700 prebuilt with the 3070 in it then sell some of the parts you want to replace
It’s the closest way to be near retail prices on these impossible graphics cards
I agree that prebuilds are a better value
But still they are expensive compared to console
Consoles are sold at a loss so the value you get is great. So in this day and age having a series x with gamepass just makes more sense than trying to make some shitty budget pc that’ll run like a toasted potato on medium settings
Especially with even the shitty old graphics cards selling for double what they did just a year and a half ago
It’s ridiculous how skewed graphics cards have been and I feel so fortunate everyday to have gotten my graphics card a month before the 30 series and this whole bullshit started
Building a gaming PC would be better in 2019 but not now
I built mine August 2020
Or even in 2020
A month before the new cards, I’m so glad I didn’t wait for the new cards fuck that xD
I’d still be waiting

My reasoning for not waiting a month for the new cards was because They might be a bit choppy at first and I wanted them to have all the kinks worked out first
Turns out, that’s the best paranoia I ever had
And ppl were selling their 2080's for 500$ around Sept
Omg yea that little sliver of time was such a weird thing
All the cards were super cheap because they were so sure that the 30 series was eons better
Ye
They are better of course but not as much as that press hype where people were telling me the 3070 makes a 2080ti a joke
Like bruh
2080ti's MSRP was 1200$ tho
Yea that was the monster
Everything was simpler back before things decided to cost double what they actually cost

My 2070s was $534 and I bet some sicko would pay $900 for it on ebay
Miners and Scalpers....
Yea pretty much
Easily
@jovial tide wb £500
Clean it up with a duster, make it brand new it'll sell for even more than 900
Cleaning a PC component is like painting a house; it'll sell better
I would if I had another graphics card to plop in
My plan back in the day was to tryhard my way to a retail $500 3070, put the 3070 in my desktop then sell my 2070s for the cost of what I paid for the 3070 plus any shipping and tax so like maybe $575-$600
Free upgrade on a graphics card
I’m just too lazy to go through that hassle
speark
my windows 10 crashed 
restart your pc @analog wharf
yea I just full shut it down lol
is there ways to change the light red color when window 11 needs your attention on a program?
anybody here able to answer a pc part question
i got everything in this pc except for a gpu and im just looking to see what the best gpu is for me to get
and ram
you know how 99% of all ram in the market is outsourced to hynix, samsung and micron
and the remaining 1% are actually hynix, samsung and micron branded rams
why is it then that the two dead ram sticks that i squeeze tea packets with are both hynix 
i expected quality
Reject expectation, return to monke
Depends on the budget
really cool stuff, and the temporary patches are oneliners
Someone needs to set up some bots to test large servers and notify their owners
true
no 69
I hope Intel Arc has SR-IOV
QSV on Arc 🥺
So AMD can finally be compelled to fix their garbage MCE
AMD needs to fix their everything tbh
I hope Intel pushes them to put effort into their windows software again at some point
They last worked on OpenGL when ATi was fighting the big bad nVidia
Oh imagine having a nearly perfect radeon software, that would be amazing
imagine having a better Nvidia control panel
the thing still has 2010 text and layout
Except for the fact that it is broken 
Most settings on profile inspector is still hidden in main control panel
Oh well fine
yeah I agree a bit
I was helping a coworker with his pc and he was like
"If only you were this efficient at work"

yikes
Is this good for gaming and streaming https://www.awd-it.co.uk/awd-it-10100f-4-3ghz-quad-core-gtx-1650-4gb-pc-for-gaming.html?config=15372-177390,15375-177441,15378-177534,15381-177546,15384-177591,15387-177603,15390-177651,15393-177666,15396-177690,15399-177693,15426-177864,17626-197854
why are there so many numbers
600 GBP for this little of a performance 
And youre going to bound to want to upgrade your CPU and GPU, tbvh.
Better off used, or handbuild a 5600G build
It can do those two things but the price is too high @vernal bloom
haggle and ask for £100 off
That's ok-ish
