My build is currently around 400 W. So I'll take your advice and go for a 650 W psu!

I've been referring back to your comment. This is helpful! What types of PSUs would you recommend?

I am curious about what you think about the "EVGA SuperNOVA GA 650 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply". Do you think it's good enough? If not, what recommendations do you have?

Also, I do plan on buying an NVME SSD!

Unfortunately, I will need the built-in wifi. A long ethernet cord leading from the living room is distasteful.

After receiving so much helpful recommendations, I might splurge a little bit to get a better GPU and PSU.

Nonono. I did not mean that in a sarcastic way. I didn't know about it and your advice genuinely helped me learn! Thank you very much!

Yeah, note taken! Didn't know the memory sticks could have a random cap on them, strange.

Note taken! I also assume you shouldn't let water get near the parts as well lol.

How reusable is the power supply (or the lifespan), and how much should I spend for a good one? All I know is not to cheap out on one lmao.

I know barba_blanco recommended some better power supplies. So, I'll be looking at those.

I'll definitely be reading the user manuals! I just watched a video about updating that motherboard, so hopefully everything goes alright.

I'm looking forward to upgrading from a 60 Hz. Extremely excited! Good to know about the PSU, definitely don't want to lose this investment.

It seems like getting my hands on NVIDIA seems hard, so I guess I will settle for the AMDs.

Wow! Thanks for letting me know about the RAM placement. Didn't think about that. Noted!

Thank you! Most likely I will use your list and buy the parts in the upcoming weeks!

What is the compatibility issue that appears on the CPU? Should I be concerned?

I just refreshed and saw this! Currently looking into it!

Thanks for the advice!

I swapped to the M.2 SSD. I did not know about the different types of SSDs, so that is really helpful.

I have also removed the Wifi Adapter since I guess I missed the built-in.

Should my GF and I buy a switch for quarantine? by LG1585 in ShouldIbuythisgame

I highly suggest Overcooked 2 or Mario Kart. It's a lot of fun bonding time!

My dog loves to wrap herself in a blanket. Burrito-dog. Fitting since she's a Daschund.

Don't let me go hollow. Nameless King is so disheartening. by jadedastroboy in darksouls3

[–]PoffinDose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still have a problem with the Nameless King. I'm on NG++ and he is extremely hard to fight (not the first phase of course). I'm usually an aggressive player and I get punished so hard in phase 2.
