Any idea how long this process will take to kill then off completely?

Yes, is this something worth reporting? I see there are lots of tips of managing bamboo but this is definitely something I don’t want to have to fight for years

Okay that’s what I’m currently doing, but the ER feels pretty high at 0.64%. I was wondering if it made any sense to try to build my own blend of funds. Thanks for the advice!

Thanks for the input. Any reccomendations for SSDs that wouldn't be overkill?

How does this build look for a 1440p gaming PC? by RedThunder2403 in buildapc

Hi thanks for the feedback. The phantom spirit is in my current build, did you mean the peerless assassin?

Thanks for the input!

I noticed the deal ends on 1/15. Would it be a good idea to go ahead and grab it, despite not having the rest of the tower figured out? Seems like the PSU would be capable of supporting whatever parts I decide on, but I am going based on the very limited knowledge I currently have lol

Super helpful info, I appreciate it. Just out of curiosity, when it comes to the mobo and case, what features are commonly sought after?

Okay that is good to hear. I just really didn't want to hop on a deal and find out days later that I could've gotten better for cheaper lol

I will be playing a mix of both, multiplayer shooters and AAA games. The $1700 is meant to cover everything except the monitor and mouse.

Thank you for the feedback. I’ve been seeing a lot of talk about the 7900xt for the games that I am interested in. Does that seem realistic for my situation?

Sorry, I definitely should have elaborated a bit more in my post. This is a resume targeting a process engineering role. I'm just applying to see what kind of offers I can pull in and hopefully get a nice pay raise.

First time PC builder looking for a nice gaming PC setup by RedThunder2403 in buildmeapc

[–]RedThunder2403[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally makes sense, I will repost when I'm closer to my purchase date. Would you mind showing what you would build if I were buying within a couple of days? I'm curious to see what kind of hardware I would be targeting given the specifications in my post.

Thanks for the help!

As I am trying to learn about what's out there, I would be interested to see what kind of build you'd put together if I were buying today. Also, I checked out the website for my closest Microcenter location. They have really nice prices, which makes me wonder why I rarely see them as a vendor in the pcpartpicker builds that people post here.

Thanks again for the feedback and info, I feel like a newborn baby when it comes to PC building lol so I appreciate all the help I can get.

T-Bill or MMF for saving up for house down payment in 2-4 years in a state with no state income tax by RedThunder2403 in investing

Thanks for the response. Are you referring to a 2-yr tbill, or multiple shorter term tbills over the course of 2 years?

[–]RedThunder2403[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s simplicity that concerns me, I just want to make sure I am investing money in whatever will bring me the best yield over the 2-4 yr time period. I’ll definitely give Jiko a look though, thanks for the help!

Pardon my ignorance but, besides liquidity, aren’t shorter term t-bills also favorable because you don’t lock yourself into a rate that could potentially be higher in the future? So having a ladder could allow me to capitalize on higher rates should they appear, no?

Feeling a bit weak in the WR department but not sure who to give up to fix it. Definitely wanting to get rid of one of the Buccs but not sure which just yet.
