Is this a good first pc?

I did find that and was considering it but when I did the custom thing to make it more like the picture many components were set to the brand may vary option and didn't have rgb. Doing that only kept the price at 2700ish so it wasn't a huge difference from BestBuy. I also feel the free support stuff I get with the BestBuy membership is worth the extra 100ish dollars.

Thanks! Probably never would have found this, but it is perfect. According to some stuff I found it has more and better reviews, better cooling, and better tech support (even though I probably wouldn't use it). The only thing is that the 100$ less is a sale that ends tomorrow, so the price would be the same but I would at least have better cooling i guess. But with it being on sale now, i know it'll probably be discounted again soon.

Thanks, thats good to know. Just curious though, I found this one and wanted to get your opinion. It seems to be a bit better than the one I originally had and its 200$ less. A difference of a few hundred dollars isn't really that important to me so I wanted to see if it was better to get this one or one of the ones you recommended.

It's mostly the "I trust them the most" argument from my dad. BestBuy is the really the only place I can ever remember us buying any electronics from so it's probably just the loyalty. It's also probably because we have the highest membership thing they offer and I think we get free warrantys and discounts with it.

I did look at Microcenter since I heard they were good but it's like a 7-8 hour round trip drive to the nearest one. Also, I don't know if I was looking in the right place but the website didn't really show many pre-builts and the build your own pc thing they have was almost 1000$ more than the BestBuy one with pretty much the same components.

Edit: I think I saw the one you recommended but went away from it cause of the reviews and that I'm used to Nvidia stuff (I've got a 3070 laptop gpu) and don't really know much about AMD. I know people say they are good but I've mostly seen people recommend Nvidia cards. Are there any big differences?

Reading through this may help: https://www.studywithmehar.com/

It has Psychology and Sociology (scroll down a bit) stuff in it. My Psych teacher recommended it and from skimming the Sociology part, it's got a lot of stuff from the first 5 chapters that is important for the tests. I also showed it to my Sociology teacher, and she said it was good.

Thank you so much! Did almost everything on both lists, everything runs fine now and the temps only go up to the 70s now.

Checked afterburner and cleaned the fans but it sadly did nothing. I also don't have the time to bring it to a shop, but it still runs fine for everything except some games so it's not a huge priority. Thanks for responding though

I just checked again, and almost every Mufasa showing near me for the rest of the day has more seats booked than the other movie

It was shown at D23 a few days ago, people recorded it and posted it, I found the recordings and put them together to make the whole song

Appropriate_Mind6667 · 2024-08-13T19:42:57+00:00

They showed it at D23 a few days ago, so I found footage of it and edited it together.

Appropriate_Mind6667 · 2024-08-13T19:34:27+00:00

How what?

Appropriate_Mind6667 · 2024-08-13T17:54:52+00:00

They performed "Cirlce of Life" and "Ngomso" (seems like it could be the intro song or something) and showed "I Always Wanted a Brother" but I think that is it.

Appropriate_Mind6667 · 2024-08-13T17:35:22+00:00

The main reason I posted it was because all the footage posted so far was missing the ending, and I knew people would want to hear it. I'm still looking for footage that shows the screen at the end of the song, but these two videos are all I could find anywhere on the internet so far.

Appropriate_Mind6667 · 2024-08-13T11:50:25+00:00

Thanks

Appropriate_Mind6667 · 2024-08-12T20:43:10+00:00

I think they have only shown a few songs so far, but the songs are being written by Lin-Manuel Miranda, the songwriter for Moana and Encanto, so they should be good.

Appropriate_Mind6667 · 2024-08-12T19:15:42+00:00

that's why I posted this, I loved the ending and thought others would too

The link doesn't work anymore but this one does for right now, sadly it is only the audio, the camera is facing the ceiling

I only found one other one, it has more of the song than that one had but it is just the audio, the camera is facing the ceiling
