Thank you guys! I thought Ryzen was better for multipurpose, especially since it's going to be render/modeling type stuff. Did this change?

Budget (including currency): $1500 USD Country: USA Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: CAD (Modeling/Rendering), gaming Other details: Monitor has to be within the $1500. Hello! I haven't really been paying attention to PC parts since around 4 years ago, so I am completely lost as to where different CPUs and GPUs stand for certain tasks (any knowledge helps) My friend needs a workstation PC (AutoCAD/Modeling/Rendering), but he'll be doing some gaming on it as well, so it does need to be multipurpose in that sense. His budget is $1500 including the monitor (he has the other peripherals). He does not care about size or flashy-ness (the less LEDs the better)

Hello! My friend needs a (prebuilt) PC for $1k-1.5k (monitor included). He does not care about size or aesthetics, and he will use it for gaming as well as CAD and modeling, so something with a stronger CPU would be nice. A 1440p 144/165Hz monitor would probably be optimal, and perhaps closer to 32gb of RAM (but 16 will probably be fine). I wanted to see what you guys say, Thank you!

Turns out the microphone that connects to the headset wasn't pushed in enough. Not sure why it worked on the laptop, maybe it used the laptops audio

Hi I got a pair of Corsair HS60s yesterday and the mic doesn't seem to work. I've made sure I'm unmuted, i've tried with and without the USB converter it has, but all I can get to work is the speaker portion. The HS60 microphone shows up as an input, but when tested it makes no noise. When I toggle the mic mute, it makes a slight static noise. I plugged it in to a laptop with a dedicated headset port, and it worked there. I'm using an NZXT s340 and a b350 mortar arctic motherboard, and afaik there is no headset port, barring the headphone front panel jack, which I broke. Basically the HS60's USB adapter doesn't let the mic work (I've tried different ports). Any ideas/work arounds? I've done W10 troubleshoot twice and it has not resolved the issue.

Only??? Haha I just need to make sure it can pass 100+, thank you

Thank you! What speeds do you get vs. the wifi you pay for?

I've had a PCI.E WiFi card for a while but it cant go past 60 Mb/s (it's supposed to be ~100). USB wifi don't work any better and running Ethernet is NOT an option. Powerline doesn't work any better either. The budget is around $50. Thank you!

Oh thanks haha

youre right, it almost does, but I might be able to fit it in. Will this mess with the GPUs fan?

oh wow thanks my bad for not doing more research the GPU kind of blocks this, but i think the wifi card is slim enough. Thank you! (again)

Hi, I recently installed a M.2 (XPG SX8200) into my system, but as a result my PCIe wifi card doesn't work anymore. I have two PCIe slots, one for the GPU and one for the wifi card (I'm using an MSI b150 Mortar Arctic), so I can't really move it around. Is there any possible solution? I haven't had a good experience with powerline (quite expensive too) or USB wifi adapters. Running an ethernet is not a viable option either. TYIA
