Why is the R3 3300x $199!?! Good lord New Egg, get your third party sellers in check!

3rd party seller may can sell for whatever price they want..obviously most people won’t pay it tho

They just want stupid people with no ability to price check to buy it
probably bought the goods at retail value and trying to make a profit

i usually avoid gaming headsets, especially the ones that advertise surround sound

good headphones and a external mic or mod mic is a better alternative if you can afford it
there is nothing that makes a headphone gaming, you just want the sound quality to be good

IKEA actually isn't that pricy. you can get an IKEA Malm for for around $100 to $200

that Malm is actually a surprisingly good value
it has sort of a cable management rack
and a drawer and cabinet for storing things haha

i miss having a corner desk like that
my wife and I are using tiny little ikea desks right now, because we just don't have the space for anything else
jolly fern
Yeah. I had to rearrange my whole house for us to be able to work from home due to this whole ordeal.
But the price couldn't be beat, and I still have my space so that I'm not all up against her.
supple sluice
Yeah, I had to take over the dining room table and turn it into an impromptu workstation, so I can keep my work day separate from my personal time
Thinking about trying to add to my ikea desk in my office though, to give me some more space. Ikea modular setups ftw
jolly fern
You may not be able to see if in the picture, but its 2 separate desks and then the corner station.
Each of the lengths is a total of like 46 bucks (taxes varying)

I'm using an Ikea Micke - https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/micke-desk-black-brown-10244743/ - and am looking to add the $60 drawer unit as well. I have a mini-ITX case and it's too big to sit on the desk itself and too wide to go into the side drawer
jolly fern
The desk looks nice though. That's a shame.
supple sluice
It's really solid, and it fits a mid-tower in the side cabinet pretty easily, and has good airflow. I just downsized my case a little too far, and c'est la vie.

I don't think "cozoo" is a reliable brand. I personally wouldn't buy a cheap accessory from a company like that. They tend to make cheap products that don't last. But it might be decent

hey guys wanted your input as to whether i should wait for a threadripper 3000 series sale or just wait till the 4000 series threadripper...im looking into a new AMD based workstation build possibly towards the latter half of this year
fierce wagon
How many cores you looking for?
small otter
Don't sleep on x299
craggy ice
im lookin at 32 or 64 in the near possible future
for my needs, i probably dont need more than 24 or 32, however i am in no means a proffesional designer or whatever i just like new tech and i dont mind the price
from my understanding x299 is a relatively dead-end socket is it not, im especially interest in the new x399, as the newer HEDT processors are offering pcie 4.0 support with many more lanes

What is the best kind of switch
bleak pike
depends on what you're doing
I usually decide this way: doing a lot of fps gaming? red switches. anything else? your preference
low elbow
imo brown or red but it’s really just what you like
bleak pike
browns require more force to actuate (fyi)
bleak pike
ew lol
bleak pike
@nimble temple get red switches
red switches are linear, which means that there's no tactile feeling (basically, you won't have to use any extra force to actuate the keys)
pine urchin
I prefer fast switches
Rn I have razer yellow switch’s but I’m going with Cherry Silver or what ever it’s called
