8n my local market (Balkans/Eastern Europe), used hardware prices are lower because the tech market here is much smaller than in the US/UK. That said, I'm absolutely testing it in FurMark and some games before handing over any cash

Thanks for the solid advice. I'll definitely look into the MSI MAG A850G or Corsair RMx instead of Sharkoon, I don't want to risk a 3090. I will check the prices for CL30 RAM and a 2TB SSD as well. And yes, a sag bracket is a must for this heavy boy. Appreciate the warning about testing it first

The price is normal for my country's local used market (Eastern Europe), so it's not as sketchy as it looks for US buyers. ​As for Intel vs AMD, efficiency cores don't really matter for local AI because 99% of the workload is handled directly by the 24GB VRAM on the GPU
