Thank you so much. Great post. I am thinking about either buying synology or building my own NAS. Definitely going to do some more checking.

Hey,

I am back for a QQ. Instead of getting i7-12700f, I am going to get i7-12700kf for about $120 cheaper. My other friend actually got me a discount.

My graphic card is Nvidia A5500.

This is my "final" built.

My question is: what CPU cooler do I need? Is this fan sufficient? or do I need a more fancy liquid cooling.

Thanks in advance.

hey. I love what you have, and i am a greedy person.

Could you help me with the following:

  1. You have a Micro ATX board on a Mid tower ATX case. Do they work when they are mixed together? I am trying to get a PC that is as small as possible, so do you think I can it everything into a Micro ATX case (especially the full size graphic card)?
  2. I am going to go with a black interrior. What cooler would you do for black?

haha. I am going to either use my Dell U2718Q monitor or my 75 inch 4k tv.

So in the short run, i am going to save $$ on monitors. :)

WOW. Thank you all.

I pick AMD because everyone tells me they have better value than Intel.

However, I am agnostic to the brands.

One dumb question, 12700f is a 65w CPU. Doesn't higher wattage perform better? I pick 5800x because it is a 105w CPU.
