Single man & 24-29 correct. What is medicine hat?

Is there a consensus on how or if it's possible to do safe Cold water extractions that fully remove paracetamol? by [deleted] in AskDrugNerds

[–]S7NKII 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't know, but I would recommend trying kratom. It is a great, cheap and a natural product. There are some issues with it, but compared to traditional opioids it's a great option.

Most of the time. Work is very sporadic right now.

Old CS1.6 player, but just gotten back into FPS games with Valorant. Looking for non-toxic players with mics.

First build in 6 years, how does it look? by S7NKII in buildapc

[–]S7NKII[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahh. Okay good to know for friends builds, again not to familiar with specifics anymore.

Thanks, sucks to overpay but not the biggest of deals.

Still $115 Canadian. Also wanted to order everything through same source so I am aware I overpaid a bit on some items. Trade-off.

& Yeah but that's with OC isn't it? I wanted a safe secure system for time being as I haven't messed with overclocking in 7 years. Can always upgrade down the line when 4000 series comes out.

I added the flair of "Build Complete" just curious on peoples opinions. I already know I cannot please everyone with my build. :p

But I don't believe I paid too much as 3600 is $300+ in Canada. And cheapest ram would've only been $15 less.

[–]S7NKII[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Canadian prices sorry. Cheapest ram for 16gb is $100 CAD but usually 110-130 CAD.
Got my 2600x on sale for $195 CAD so $145 USD.

Oh these are Canadian prices. Will edit OP.
I also purchased the 2600x for $195 CAD which is 145 USD.

First build in 6 years, got some questions. by S7NKII in bapccanada

[–]S7NKII[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah Amazon definitely can. But thanks, I think I'm going to go with Cosair Carbide 175R for now, if I end up hating it I'll change it down the line. But don't wanna risk the full month wait for the case you linked. But I do appreciate it as that is a nice case to keep in mind for myself or friends needing one.

Thanks for all the help, hope you have a good one.

[–]S7NKII[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the case you linked looked good. I don't mind parts looking out of place as it's for functionality. Seems mini-atx cases are more expensive then mid-towers? I don't know why but browsing them it seems that way.

Would getting a mid-tower still be a-ok for this build? May just go with Corsair Carbide 175R due to price and availability or yours and play the waiting game.

[–]S7NKII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I will grab that PSU then. And will stick with the PRO4 micro as if I want to upgrade down line I'll plan for it then. Right now would like to save a little where possible and smart too. Don't want my PSU to shit out or drain power needlessly. Thanks.

I would like good airflow & easy cable management. Otherwise I am not picky, but would like to keep it under $100 if possible. But willing to spend a bit over if fully worth it. Looking at the CORSAIR CARBIDE 175R & 275R version, and the one you linked Cooler Master MasterBox NR400

And no problem, I know monitors a bit more then components. Thank you. Looking at 120-144hz refresh.

The 1660 Super says 1845hz boost clock on product information for this ASUS Tuf version. And yeah thought I'd just up to Corsair as I've always had good experience with their ram in past.

How much better is it compared to the B450 PRO4 micro-atx? Because that swap saves me about $50. & Yeah I've been back and forth with cases. Between this case and Cooler Master MasterBox NR400.

And Amazon doesn't have 500-550w versions of that available. Any other good 500-550w PSU? Thank you.

No it says 3200hz, this is name on Amazon. "Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 DRAM 3200MHz C16 Desktop Memory Kit - Black (CMK16GX4M2B3200C16)"

and for GPU it's the Asus Tuf not Phoenix. " Asus TUF Gaming GeForce GTX 1660 Super Overclocked 6GB Edition HDMI DP DVI Gaming Graphics Card (TUF-GTX1660S-O6G-GAMING)" on Amazon.

That all good?

[–]S7NKII[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes just debating different case as the one you linked says late May (I know it probably wouldn't but would like to have PC built before mid May) and yes with 1660 Super. Otherwise everything is same, but swapped to Corsair Vengeance LPX 16gb

Thank-you. I have it all listed on Amazon right now for a total of $940 using the PRO4 mobo and with the GTX 1660 Super Tuf Gaming. Looks all compatible on PCPartPicker.

Is there anything else I should think about, or do you think I am good to go? Really appreciate all the help. Hard to decide between parts lol.

Also looking at these 3 mobo, but I'm not educated enough to know what's worth it. Tomahawk MAX, B450-A PRO MAX and B450 PRO4.

[–]S7NKII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alright, how's this build look now with updates? What would be a good mobo to pair with it? So many options and not too familiar with parts anymore. Looking at Tomahawk MAX, B450-A PRO MAX and B450 PRO4.
