[jagged lake]

You absolutely can!

[inland knot]

W

I already have a similar pc

Wana see it?

[jagged lake]

Sure!

[inland knot]

I was informed that it pleases the sith

Now that i look closer its not THAT similar but wait for when i get better fans and a riser cable 🙏

[jagged lake]

Looks clean as hell

I love the vibe

[inland knot]

Thanks

This is the current full setup

Im planning to switch rooms

Switch desk

Add 2 more monitors

Add rgb lights

[jagged lake]

Looks great

[jagged lake]

Was about to suggest rgb strips behind the desk

Would look amazing with them

[inland knot]

Yeah

Currently running short on budget

Literally -200$

;-;

[jagged lake]

If you want you might be able to find cheap rgb strips $10 or less, I used to rock $5 rgb strips and they worked pretty well

[inland knot]

As i said

-200$

In bank rn

[jagged lake]

Oh wait

Minus?

[inland knot]

Kinda

My father loaned me 200$

[jagged lake]

Didnt realize 😭

[inland knot]

I gotta pay him back

So

Till like

[jagged lake]

That's great!

[inland knot]

And my parents promised me 1k more if i do well this year too

[inland knot]

Thank you kind sir!

[fading pine]

[edgy tartan]

[ivory prism]

[inland knot]

Pc cooler c3 T500 Bk

[jagged lake]

Yep, I use the monitors on the right for digital art and the ones on the left are for gaming and discord

[jagged lake]

Almost 14k

Full list of everything here

[ornate crystal]

Sheeesh

I am rocking a laptop, mouse, Amazon mousepad and chair

[jagged lake]

My setup was pretty much the same 7 months ago lol

[ornate crystal]

Because it’s the best

[ornate crystal]

What advice would you give for saving up money for things in my gaming setup

[jagged lake]

Cant really give much advice but make sure to save up for the important stuff first like the actual pc and monitors before getting everything else

[ornate crystal]

Thanks

[jagged lake]

Cause if you spend a load on rgb and stuff it might be better to invest that on the pc instead

[ornate crystal]

Ok

[ornate crystal]

Btw if you don’t mind me asking, how many years or months did it take for you to save up for your setup

[jagged lake]

Almost 2 years

[ornate crystal]

Nice I respect the grind

[jagged lake]

I was rocking a gaming laptop and a very bad tv for the entire time and then got almost everything for my setup at once

It was crazy

[ornate crystal]

Oh that’s insane

[ornate crystal]

Would you say upgrading over time is better or getting everything at once like you

[jagged lake]

If you already have decent stuff then upgrading over time might be better

[ornate crystal]

Would you say having a rtx 4060 laptop i7 13650hx, super light and mousepad is decent

[jagged lake]

I'd say it's pretty decent

I was using a rtx 2060 laptop and it did me well for over 3 years

If you were to upgrade though I'd recomend getting a desktop

Unless you need the portability

[ornate crystal]

I think I will buy it all at once after I finish my studies, I will have to be studying like 3 hours a day in like a few years time,

This laptop is fine, I can maybe purchase a monitor but it serves me good rn

[jagged lake]

Yeah a monitor would probably be really nice, for me it's way better than a tiny laptop screen

[ornate crystal]

I agree

After my studies, I will buy 5090 when it comes out and start grinding 25 hours a day lol

[jagged lake]

Damn going from a 4060 to a 5090, the difference is gonna be insane in games lol

[ornate crystal]

Ikr

I make 1800 dollars a year lol, 2 hours a week

😭

It’s the baddest job ever

[jagged lake]

I might upgrade to a 5090 depending on if they improve the maximum resolution

[jagged lake]

Damn 😭

[ornate crystal]

I am still in high school so pretty ok

[ornate crystal]

Worth 4k 😄

[jagged lake]

My current 4090 is pretty much maxed out to 3 monitors cause my monitors are high res so I gotta hook up extras to my motherboard

It's not really a problem right now

[ornate crystal]

Extras? You have how many 4090s?

[jagged lake]

Oh I mean extra monitors lol

[ornate crystal]

Oh I thought it was 4090s lol

[jagged lake]

It'll be a problem when my dream monitor comes out

[ornate crystal]

Sheesh

[jagged lake]

Cause it's 4k ultrawide meaning I prolly wont even be able to have 3 monitors hooked up

[ornate crystal]

Yeah

I got the 30hz monitor from 2012

And the pc from then

[jagged lake]

Oh not to mention 240 hz 💀

[jagged lake]

Damn

Is the resolution atleast decent

[ornate crystal]

Idk what it is

My parents

Probably 360p of that exists

[jagged lake]

Yeah your laptop screen would be way better then 😭

[ornate crystal]

But want to be friend, I am noob in pc, so you can be 1000iq tech guy

🤗

[ornate crystal]

Yes 1080p

[jagged lake]

Yep same with my laptop, 1080p with a laptop screen size is great

But for almost 2 years I decided to use a 720p 32" tv instead of the laptop screen cause I didnt know anything about resolution and because it was bigger 😭

[jagged lake]

Sure

[ornate crystal]

YAY I HAVE ONE FRIEND NOW

I will be serious

[ornate crystal]

What servers do you usually talk in for like pc, I am weird lol

[jagged lake]

Dont really talk that much in pc servers but it's mostly the linus tech tips server that I do speak in sometimes

[ornate crystal]

You talk with friends right like me, I am cringe

😭

@jagged lake

I have added you

Pls decline

[inland knot]

Linus has a server?

[jagged lake]

Yeah
