so you wouldnt recommend m.2 ssds?

Aren't m.2 ssd's faster?

Gaming and a very tiny bit of rendering and others

Hey can anyone please tell me what they think of the build i made? Thanks! https://pcpartpicker.com/list/8QsZYr

Thank you very much!

Hey can you take a look at my build and my friends build on the same budget? Which is better? Mine: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/XX26WX My Friends: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/J4BzVY

I use the Acer R1

Yea. At first I was planning on getting AMD because my friends are like bro AMD is amazing for gaming. At first I thought if it was good at gaming, it would be good at all the other stuff I would usually do. Well turns out it wasn't.

But from what I know, Intel absolutely slaps Ryzen in the face when it comes to rendering and whatnot

Thank you so much man, even though its 200USD over the budget, I'm positive I should be able to get this build. But man that motherboard is very expensive!

Ohhhhh I see. So I can reach for something better than the 7700k huh? Thats kewlllll.

Well, I guess gaming and rendering. I do a lot of Photoshopping, After effects, and rendeing in Cinema 4D.

Are you talking about the X Series?

This helped me a lot! But I'm not sure what you meant by locked motherboard and unlocked CPU. Is it possible to take the motherboard you chose for the AMD and stuff it in with the intel build? I would also like to stick with the case I chose because of the looks. I mean both cases look good but I'd prefer the one I chose out in the beginning. Are they possible? I'm sorry if I am being picky because I care a lot about the looks. Thanks though for spending your time writing all of this down PS. I was trying to get with a Color scheme with Orange/Black. If I forgot to mention. Thanks!

Hey guys. So basically I got a budget of 1650$ to build a desktop. What do you think of it? CPU: i7-7700k CPU Cooler: NZXT Kraken x62 Motherboard: Asus Strix B250F RAM: G Skill Trident Z RGB 16GB (2x8) Storage: SSD: Samsung 850 EVO "2.5" 250GB HDD: Hitachi Ultrastar 72000RPM "3.5" 1TB GPU: Asus Strix GeForce GTX 1080 CASE: NZXT S340 Elite (BLACK) PSU: Corsair CXM450M 80+ Bronze (450W) Total wattage is about 400W. So I thought to get a Power Supply just a little more the wattage then need. Is it alright? I'm no computer geek and this is my first time building, so I'd like some advice! Anything would be appreciated.
