  1. GPU is like the last place you want to save money. Otherwise the build looks good to me. Could maybe check for 6650XT, since they are pretty close in price these days.
  2. You could write to and ask Silverstone when RM44 is coming out. https://www.silverstonetek.com/en/product/info/server-nas/RM44/ Pretty much fits your every requirement and they have an Amazon.de store, cheap shipping. Already in stock on Alternade.de https://www.alternate.de/SilverStone/SST-RM44-Rack-Server-Gehäuse/html/product/1873007
  3. M.2 will be noticeable over SATA SSD. But a maxed out PCIe Gen3 drive is about as much as any application/game can use at the moment (3500MB/s). Each M.2 drive is different, different flash, different controllers, some have DRAM, others do not. You should look at reviews, or just buy already popular/well known models, they are usually not that much more expensive, if at all.
  4. Really hard to find something that does both all that well tbh. Gaming headphones don't usually have the most accurate sound and they are often closed, so sweat can be an issue. Wireless "music" headphones that aren't gaming usually have very high latency, like to the point that some of them you can't even watch videos without noticing lip sync issues, even worse in games. For gaming headphones I usually recommend people HyperX Cloud 2 Wireless. Because they are relatively cheap and built like absolute tanks, while also having low latency and pretty good sound.
  5. There is only one in your budget on that page. https://www.pbtech.co.nz/product/PSUDPC11850/DEEPCOOL-PQ850M-850W-80Plus-Gold-Full-Modular-PSU 10 year warranty, can't really go wrong with it. https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/deepcool-pq850m-power-supply-review Based on Seasonic Focus, good.

    Bought a used GPU for the first time in my life…

    I think the conditions for buying used GPU vs new are the most favourable at the moment. I got a nearly brand new EVGA 3070Ti FTW3 Ultra for 500 Euros when the cheapest in the store is 750. Not to mention the new generation looks like incredibly bad value, 4090 is 2K+, 4080 will be 1500. There is no way those two are 3 times and 4 times faster. I'm going to sit and wait for the next generation, maybe the market fixes itself by then...
  7. Bought a used GPU for the first time in my life. And it works, for now. 🤣

      I have never bought a new GPU. Unless you count 15+ year old NIB stuff

      I find hunting for sick deals on used stuff is just more fun than going out and buying what you want 😂

      Currently have a potential line on a GPU upgrade.

  8. Yeah well, that's a car battery charger, I was talking about electric car chargers mostly. But those features aren't all that spectacular, the charging itself is dumb anyway, gel/acid batteries just feed a set voltage to the battery until it doesn't take any more amps. Detection between 6 and 12 is pretty standard and trickle charge is essentially built into the battery chemistry itself, it just doesn't take more charge.
  9. Oh I don't think it's better. But also don't think it's going to be nearly as slow as 4080 16GB, that gap is wide.
  10. RTX3090 36TFLOPS, 6900XT 23TFLOPS. Which history are we talking about here?

    AdoredTV's video about RDNA3 seems to have some…

    They're not going to perform 2x faster than Navi 2X, because AMD already said it's 1.5-1.7x in their marketing.
  12. Old video. 6650XT is as cheap as 6600XT now and much much cheaper than a 3060.
  13. Yep, it's that shit. You can't even get your passenger to type in locations on Waze, because it doesn't let you while driving for "safety". It's "safer" than the cars built in stuff. You would think Google would be focused on making car stuff good, since they don't walk in California. But maybe all Google employees just use Apple phones.
  14. If China stopped planning dystopian nightmares I would agree that Huawei phones look decent.
  15. No. And even if you do it's not like a slower graphics card will somehow become better.

    Esso, I love you but you gotta stop with sellin…

    I have a lifetime supply leftover from the corona pandemic. Not that I use them these days.
  17. Without changing the motherboard it would be a waste of time basically. You could stick a 2700K in there, but it would barely help at this point, so outdated. You would notice a major boost buying some modern hardware, even if it's from a bargain bin.
  18. You will have issues with updates, Windows will not know what to do when it wants to download updates. That is if you are allowing it to update.
  19. TV cost is basically all panel. The other "hardware" is basically a super budget phone internals and a power supply.

    Gas station pricing. Makes sense to me. Also, masks?
  21. Yes and no. Yes, the voltage will drop over any additional length of cable and there will be more loss. But it won't be enough to become relevant.
  22. FSR is not anti-aliasing It's an upscaling technique, but it works similar to TAA, so jaggies get removed at the same time, just more prediction therefore more artifacts and it works with lower resolutions for more FPS. Developers definitely goofed there.
