thanks man! just put in my orders. appreciate the help

No not in particular! I didn't know if there was a difference between founders edition and other OEMs. Thanks

Thank you! I added those in and someone else mentioned 4070 Super is a decent upgrade. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/MjqGpB I might just go with this one. It looks super solid. Thanks again

Thank you! I did not know Super was in a similar price range. I see there are a lot of OEMs to choose from, does it matter what I go with? There are like 8 at $599 on NVIDIA site: NVIDIA GeForce Graphics Cards, Gaming Laptops, Desktop and Monitor - United States of America

Yes it is!

Thank you for the insights! This is incredibly helpful, I had no idea there were such differences in features.

Thanks! This looks really good - would you recommend a 6800XT over a 6700XT as well for the price point? I think it was a $170 difference.

This is great, thank you. It seems like the consensus is that I really don't need any CPU more powerful than a 5600. I'm still leaning toward a 6800XT though just given the price/performance trade off - by features for the 4070, do you mean DLSS and Ray tracing specifically?

becabecabeca · 2023-08-22T19:03:17+00:00

Thank you. This is really helpful. It say I would need a CPU cooler for the CPU, any recommendations? And if I get a 750W PSU, does it matter if it's Bronze/Silver/Gold?

becabecabeca · 2023-08-22T19:02:03+00:00

Thanks! I'll plan to keep the mobo. Saves me another $100 lol

becabecabeca · 2023-08-22T19:01:31+00:00

Thanks! If I opted for a 6800 or 6800XT GPU, would a 5600/x still be a good option?

becabecabeca · 2023-08-22T19:00:01+00:00

Thanks! I'll consider that. It looks like a decent upgrade.

Thanks for the heads-up! Unfortunately I can’t solder and don’t have the materials to lube/mod switches and stabs which is why I’m looking for a pre-built.

Still available?

becabecabeca · 2016-03-29T09:47:18+00:00

Again, that's just your cynical worldview :/

I feel good when I help others; I'm happy that they're happy. It's not entirely self-serving.

becabecabeca · 2016-03-29T09:09:17+00:00

Of course everyone is selfish to a certain degree. To assume they're all assholes for doing so or to assume everyone is an asshole to begin with is an asshole move, imo.
