Now the PC she bought is $150 less....so even better.....

So last night wife came home with a prebuilt CyberPower PC from Best Buy...for $750....not what I would have bought but gotta love her.... ..

Thanks, I was looking at the Part Picker site and it seemed to have 200, 204, and 260 listed

So, 200, 204, or 260....SODIMM are all interchangeable ?

everything I look up does not tell me how many pins...... I have looked, unless I am looking in the wrong place McG

A while back one of my 8gig RAM sticks took a poop, I have been running on one 8gig stick, but I need to replace it now..... so how do I figure out how many pins my RAM has? Clevo W35_37ET Filter Crucial 8GB DDR3L-1600 SODIMM CT102464BF160B Configuration ID: CT4023080 DDR3 PC3-12800 • CL=11 • UNBUFFERED • NON-ECC • DDR3-1600 • 1.35V • 1024MEG X 64 •

If I am honest, I really need to wait until the requirements for CP2077 drop....not what CDPRedused at E3. While the budget side of my head wants to get a RX580, I am sure that I will have to jump up from that to play. I am an older guy.....and 1080p at reasonable settings with decent frame rate is what I am looking for.... I do or did...play GW2, and my 10 year old mac lags / stops in populated regions so I stopped playing. Other than that, I don't see me taking the eSports world by storm.....

Is this going to be an issue?

Also, if I want to push the Ryzen to 3.8-4 GHz would I need a different cpu cooler?

May I ask why you are using a X470 vs a B450 MoBo?

I have "a" moniter, but it will need to be upgraded along the way. I have to sell this build in sections to the wife, lol, need to get the PC built, then I can get the 2 monitors by enlisting the help ofmu daughter who is moinve into photo/graphic design in Highschool

I knew this would be the sticking point, but figuredmaybe the 1660 super would work?

Good Morning, as usual I find my self over thinking all this stuff. This will be my 1st PC build and It will be used for typical Home/Office/school as well as light to moderate gaming - Cyberpunk 2077, Jedi Fallen Order, Guild Wars 2. 1. Budget & Location - $700 (+/-) USA 2. Aim - Home/Office/School - some photo editing (not video) - gaming ( see games above) 3. Monitors - 2 eventually but one for now..... 4. Peripherals - not needed / will use a free media install of Win 10 5. Why are you upgrading? Because 2010 Mac Mini......... ETA: RGB is not a thing...case needs to be functional, glass sides and pretty colors are not required.....would rather function over fashion. Thanks so much.

Thank you for this post!
