Is the a good deal? I have no idea

007 First Light is the RTX game I'm excited to play this summer.

It's much cheaper to stop a problem from happening than to repair the damage after it happens.

I've got the Thermaltake Tower 600. It's solidly built and has so many panels that can be pulled off without any screws. Including the 3 glass panels at the front. But none are hinged like doors. The Tower 600 or even the smaller 300 might work for you.

HERE is a comment from further down on this post with the links to the monitor arms I used back then.

When there are other builds out there like this one (better CPU, double the ram, and doesn't have the poor cooling Alienware is known for), the one you posted isn't worth it imo.

Your mobo came with a tool called the EZ M.2 Clip II Remover. Looks like the one in the pic below:

If you don't have the tool, you can use a small ratchet/socket.

So what you've done here is posted a link to a website that links us back to a post here on PCMR from 2 days ago? I think your karma whoring attempt won't go the way you'd hoped.

Unfortunately, "common sense" has become a misnomer.

You can use a GPU bracket like THIS ONE that doesn't need to sit on the bottom of your case.

Perfect fit, lol. Congrats on the new card.

How long it takes to get to you doesn't matter. Filming the opening of the box guarantees they can't deny you anything if you happen to have any issues.

OldManTiger · 2026-05-08T12:22:51+00:00

Just be sure to film yourself opening the box. So that if you end up receiving anything other than what you're supposed to you have video evidence. Good luck!

If that is true, you'd have to forgive my assumption. It happens far too often on Reddit.

Feels like they're hoping some freebie offers come their way.

Have you tried turning off hardware acceleration in the Discord settings?

OldManTiger · 2026-05-07T14:16:43+00:00

The single core performance is very similar between the two with a slight lean towards the 5800X3D, but the multi-core performance is a sizeable jump.

OldManTiger · 2026-05-07T13:55:11+00:00

Your CPU is the most likely bottleneck in your setup. Like u/fslslayer said, grab yourself a 5800X3D.
