I'm currently using a Dell 42U Server Rack Cabinet holding Startech Rails that are used with Rosewill L4500 Server 4U Chassis. I've used the reds and have no issues, I was just more interested in knowing why the purples always sells out quickly. Thanks for letting me know it's not you guys! Amazon sucks, as we all know in the first place. Thank you for making such an amazing product!

Hey LTT Crew, So I'm having a hard time understanding why the purple rack studs keep going out of stock. I usually grab my rack studs from Amazon for the Prime perks, but I've noticed both Amazon and your store (was for your store at one point) running low on those purple studs lately. What's the deal with those? Are they really that much better than the red ones? I ended up getting the reds, and they seem to be working fine for my 4U Chassis. I figured since you guys are plugged into the rack studs scene, you might have the lowdown. It's kind of annoying seeing third-party sellers trying to cash in on the shortage with crazy markups. Just wondering if there's any insight you can share or if there's any way you guys could help with the stock issue. No biggie if it's out of your hands, just thought I'd check in.

What OP can do is purchase a broken one on eBay and then use those screws! I'm assuming broken GTX 1660 Ti's would cost less than $40.

That's what I thought! So many people would tell us on YouTube to stay away from it, just like CCleaner!

The Free version does the same thing, just everything isn't fully automatic.

Glad to hear! Make sure to mark my prior comment as your solution, in case others have the same dilemma in the future!

I don't understand by the "compatibility" for a power supply on their motherboard question. Any power supply should do, but you will need something that is going to continue to power the system for over 10+ years without failure. Maybe I'm not understanding something, OP has written...

That sounds like a better choice than your previous one! Good luck, I hope it all goes well for you in the end. Eventually in the future you can upgrade over to a 360mm AIO, but the 240mm AIO is a perfect starter for you!

Alright, well I've seen countless warnings not to use their software since a lot of it is useless nonsense. I haven't touched the uninstaller software other than during the Windows 8.1 era. I personally switched over to Revo Uninstaller Pro since it does all that + backs up my system restore in case something goes wrong. You do you!

I would highly advise not purchasing a Thermaltake PSU... I've seen too many issues with that business to trust their power supplies (even though they are the most commonly used power supplies due to their price...) I would kindly recommend you switching to a Corsair / EVGA 600w model for future proofing. Unless this PC is only going to be used for light gaming / regular productivity, then you shouldn't encounter problems, though I never like seeing consumers purchasing low wattage power supplies (nor do I like seeing someone buying an overly high wattage one either). Obviously, the choice is your in the end, but I'd like to give my input. Here's a link to some possible power supplies in case you change your mind! EVGA 600w Gold Rated Power Supply (Non-Modular) EVGA Supernova 650 G7 Gold Rated Power Supply (Fully-Modular) Corsair RM750e Gold Rated Power Supply (Fully-Modular + ATX 3.0) Corsair RM850x Gold Rated Power Supply (Fully-Modular) I'm very surprised American Amazon doesn't have as good selections as Canadian Amazon has! But these we're the best ones I could find that I personally use for builds.

I would recommend going to a 7800X3D. If you're personally just gaming, then it's the best CPU for dedicated gaming right now. I'm personally running with a 5800X3D and I won't be upgrading for a while! I also upgraded from an Intel i7-6700K before switching over to AMD. It was such a major change for me, but it benefitted me in the end!

Sounds good! Just remember... The higher end CPU you get (especially a x3D chip) will use more wattage and will need a good cooler to cool them. The air cooler I mentioned should do the trick for a 7900X though!

Sounds to me that the graphics card is having a problem displaying on both monitors. Though I have had a few RX 480's in my hands a while ago, I've never dealt with such issues. It could be a sign it's time to upgrade to a newer, more powerful GPU as your card might be on it's last legs. You'll know if it's dead when it starts artifacting and not possibly displaying anything in the future. If you have a decent budget to upgrade, I have included a link to a decent upgrade graphic card for you to buy (Including both NVIDIA and AMD) ZOTAC GAMING GeForce RTX 3060 Twin Edge OC 12GB GDDR6 Graphics Card DELL Radeon RX 6700 XT 12GB

I would recommend figuring out the amount of fans you can fit inside that case and try messing around with the pressure / airflow pattern that would suit best for your system. The extra 5'C is not a significant bump in temps since it's now more cramped from airflow, which is why it's up to you if you believe it's important to give it more airflow.

The build looks good, though I wouldn't see a reason to use that expensive AIO for the Ryzen 7 7700 non-x CPU. It's close to the price of the CPU itself! I would recommend changing it to something like a thermal right air cooler in white, since I notice your aesthetic choice is a white pc build. Honestly, I would recommend getting a Ryzen 9 7900x / x3D model if you're doing editing, but that's your choice if you have the budget for it.
