    you probably dont need a 1000w power supply, you could probably get away with around 650w and get an even better efficiency rating for the same price as the 1000w or get a gold for cheaper, other than that if youre happy with the cost it looks solid, im not super familiar with intel's line up at the moment, could get away with 16gb of ram if you wanted to save some money as its an easy upgrade down the line.

    Yea it was a really fun challenge, much more satisfying than atx, however I did cut one of my fan wires in half thinking it was a ziptie

    damn, I only switched to the nr200 (non-p) a few weeks ago, that was only about £70 on amazon with prime, seems the nr200p is a bit harder to get

    Same!

    You might have just got lucky, I had a similar experience where i didnt place my cpu in the slot completely correct and closed the clamp on it which broke a pin, if the cpu's pins look fine and everything works after some stress tests, should be fine, just keep an eye out

    you would need a 4k display to see 4k, if your display only goes up to 1080p then 1080p is all you can see, 240hz is the refresh rate and has nothing to do with how to resolution is displayed, just how fast it refreshes, making it seem 'smoother'

    Ive currently got an itx x570 auros pro wifi, i was going to go for the b550, only reason i didnt was pcie gen 4 comparison, ive always used gigabyte boards and Ive never had any issues that werent my own fault.

    Can anyone point me to a laptop that would be good for work, doesnt have to be able to play any games but ive currently got a hp stream 14in and its so painfully slow at everything, im not very familiar with laptops, I dont want to break the bank on it so i'd say my budget is £300? not sure if that can get what Im looking for, but just to clarify, it just needs to be able to load its own operating system, some microsoft programs and some youtube without taking 2 hours per buffer. Suggestions appreciated!

    just have a look on youtube, its really easy from what i remember

    couldnt do rtx but i had a 1660 ti and played minecraft quite a bit with that with shaders
  14. JoshPJ
    A 2060 could do rtx, you could still get a 1000 series and just get some shaders for minecraft, basically the same thing
  15. JoshPJ
    Obviously a good point, still better to be researching into that area (gold) of psu's than the cheapest ones he can find to try and bring cost down, but you are definitely right dont buy a psu blindly just from its efficiency rating
  16. JoshPJ
    Dont know too much about the 6800xt and how it compares, im sure some googling and youtube will help you out, im sure a 3080 will cope perfectly fine with what you need
  17. JoshPJ
    oh yeah i forgot about the 2000 series
  18. JoshPJ
    a few things, you dont need a 3060 to play roblox and minecraft, something more like a 1060 6gb or a 1650/1660 would do it, id get a better power supply, they are more important than you think, try to get one with a higher efficiency rating like gold, you also havent included a case, not sure if that's intentional?
  19. JoshPJ
    Haha, im sure it will be fine

    now im confused, so you are aware that the 1tb $200 is $85 cheaper than the 512gb, not more expensive which is expected, hence why this guy made a post about it, im sure you opened up both tabs like i did and im guessing you made the same mistake as i did, thinking the 512gb was the cheaper drive, if im wrong i apologise
  21. JoshPJ
    i thought the same, if you have a look again, the 1tb is the cheaper one, thats why he is confused
  22. JoshPJ
    oh i see what you mean, that is strange, on a quick glance i thought the 1tb was more expensive, no ssd will be 'dog' slow, so i 100% say go for the 1tb, good chance its the retailers error and you're getting a bargain, even if the 512gb does have better read and write speeds and etc, when it comes to ssd's the difference in load times will only be milliseconds

    it depends on lots of factors, like price and features, I wanted nvidia gsync rather than freesync so i based my search off that and ended up with my monitor, you could compare monitors for months and not be able to pick one, so dont get too hung up on it
  24. JoshPJ
    different storage space, exactly the same in all other aspects I imagine

    I was lucky enough to get a tuf oc 3080 in december, im very happy with it, no trouble, runs everything I want it to extremely well
