Accidentally bought a super sketchy product at a local Walmart today... instructions on it arent even for the same product inside. Thankfully the customer service is good at this place so Ill just return it.
I miss the days when you could buy simple things and not worry about them being designed so poorly that nobody can figure out how to use them. In this case, bicycle lights... that have no visible way to open them to attach to the bike... and no instruction manual, plus mismatched label on the box

Wiring for me is confusing when it came to the mobo
silver sparrow
like lets see
motherboard unpacked, put onto safeish surface, instal cpu, instal ram, get case, get motherboard screws, line up motherboard holes with the funny little standoffs on the case, screw in screws, put in gpu, (removing the pcie covers first) put on cooler, congrats you have like 2 things left, install PSU wire up PSU, and wire up case
theres also fans and storage but thats beyond simple
storm narwhal
Wiring is probably one of the easier things to do in a pc build imo
installing stock cooler as a newbie is much worse
silver sparrow
imo the wiring of the case buttons and stuff is just really tedious and annoying to have to figure out what goes to what

Bethesda previously confirmed that it began investing more into engine work ahead of the start of the new console generation, and Starfield will be the first game to put the new engine to work. However, the engine's feature set will be modified to meet the unique needs of Starfield, The Elder Scrolls 6, and by extension any future Bethesda games using Creation Engine 2

storm narwhal
At least a tower cooler lasts forever
tranquil pebble

PSUs are more complex and finding a quality one at a good price is harder... but getting more wattage than you need is a good idea. Don't pull a Dell and put a 200W PSU in a modern system lol
Dell Optiplex have some of the worst PSUs I've seen for wattage
storm narwhal
180w PSU kekw
mortal grail
Often great wall iirc
Mass produced
Perfect for the millions of optiplexes with no gpu and nothing else
storm narwhal
But, it is enough for the cpu
mortal grail
Meets the minimum and means Dell saves millions
storm narwhal
Just ask for a small loan of a few million
mortal grail
I do however don't mind defending someone who insists on a better psu tho
There's nothing wrong with an effort for better redundancy, provided it's a good choice
tranquil pebble
$2000+ Dell with 200W PSU exists too
mortal grail
If you said to me ax1600i for a 4070 system then I'd have way too many questions tho
storm narwhal
Yeah, my prelude was that it had to be a good choice haha
tranquil pebble
yeah fr
storm narwhal
Not just a 2000w PSU for a 3600 and 2070-

I don't worry about turbo
I consider it more like futureproofing

reliability also comes in with having a solid cooler

This is fair

The occasional motherboard sale as well
If they can gain a whole lot of io, or maybe m.2 slots for a few bucks, sure
Even nvidia
I'm happy to suggest an nvidia card if it's within $50 more of the competition in raster
tranquil pebble
yeah spending $1000 on a consumer board is not worth it at all
mortal grail
Or specifically relevant to the use case
mortal grail
yeah spending $1000 on a consumer board is not worth it at all
If you use it for what it can really do it's fine, thing is the ones that make sense for that statement are almost always ones that deserve an LN2 pot
So yeah, pretty much all the time for normal people
tranquil pebble
exactly
mortal grail
Now, what pushes me back from that, is often budget
If $20 puts me way over, I don't take it
Objective best becomes situational
storm narwhal
Lemme spend 5000 on an Asus pro art mobo
mortal grail
On the other hand, if cutting that extra out means I get a big perf bump, I also don't take it
This is the biggest reason why I rarely make a serious suggestion for an nvidia card
Cos quite often, AMD has a card close enough and cheaper, or more expensive by not much and way better
And the dynamic shifts
tranquil pebble
I only recommended Nvidia while Radeon drivers were buggy as hell
mortal grail
Yeah nowadays the line is a lot more blurred
storm narwhal
I gotta re-look into AMD's software offerings too
mortal grail
Go back even 2 years and we were often recommending Nvidia cards
storm narwhal
Noise cancellation, virtual background stuff etc

I can only assume they've progressed a lot since I last looked

If you're looking for 4K these are not the type of pc's to do it
Also 4K isn't worth it unless you have a massive screen
Like over 32"
wicked oriole
I wanted to get a 32" curved screen
mortal grail
32" is fine for 1440p
And you can kinda do 1440p on 1K
1.2K ideally
7700xt/6800 is about the minimum for that

Only reason I'd like the 4k is because then I feel like I'd for starters have it as an option for later on once I learn more and second it should be able to do 1440 very well
400 on a monitor I'd be okay with, the pc part is the part I'm having trouble figuring out lol

Ideal balance for you would probably be a 27in 2560x1440 panel without a larger ...
I'm assuming a larger budget instead of 1200 would be 2k+?
worthy meteor
1500+ and I'd feel more comfortable saying ultrawide 1440p or into 4k144
It's doable for 1500 if you build yourself, not sure how prebuilts are around that price
mortal grail
What I'd do
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/GVmmYN
If I cut the monitor out it's barely 1000
And that's the best you could do for perf which is about mid-range 1440p
I could really strip it down
Get a 6800xt
That would run really light games in 4k or old games
Nothing new tho
wicked oriole
I'd be more on minecraft for 4k tbh. Cod I'm fine with 1440
