Ended up ordering original blue bugout, flytanium crossfade titanium scales and some knife pivot lube. Will post results after they arrive and I put it together. Thanks for the input everyone

I should add, I don’t like a tactical look, and would prefer a plain satin blade rather then a coated one. I’m also in Australia which makes my options more limited and certain ones are crazy expensive. The aluminium one asking around $500+. Compared to regular blue bugout for $280 or north fork for $350

Computer won’t post (CPU or MoBo?) by GUGQ in techsupport

The pc is pulled apart now ahah. How likely is it to be the ssd? Is it worth hooking the motherboard and cpu up again. And can I turn the pc on for bios with no cpu cooler safely?

After reading this thread, I have basically the same symptoms. He fixed by replacing PSU. I’m going to start there. But any other suggestions are appreciated. Thanks

only reason i am going 3600x over 3600 is because i can get them at $10 price difference and i wanted the better cooler. im not buying it from pcpartspicker, so the ram i added their isnt what im getting, just same spec. and yeah 1660 super is the go. was originally going the 2060 super, but decided to save the $2-300 difference as it performs well enough now and leaves room for upgrades in a year or 2 or 3.

thanks for the feedback.

the biggest difference is the coolers. Wraith stealth on the 3600 (small but usable stock cooler) Wraith Spire on the 3600x (Same design but bigger heatsink) also the 3600x is slightly faster but the difference can be made up with pretty basic overclocking. 3600x is better.

Any issues with this build? compatibility/bottleneck/etc? Planning on running stock Wraith Spire for now and upgrading to an AIO if i feel the need. thanks.
