  1. Yeah I suppose so I could do that for significantly less however with the UK import tax it would be more like £300-350. Whilst using website like Aliexpress I could build one for around £115.
  2. Yeah thanks that response is very helpful. I was reading that it had a TDP of 115W. Which sounds bonkers.
  3. Probably a web server so that I can host my own website to showcase my qualifications like a digit CV. However at the moment I have a pentium g4560 just laying around and 8gb of ram so that could work. I was just wondering if it is worth it to buy older hardware such as xeon chips as they can be found so cheap on ebay.
  4. Since with most servers high clock speeds per core aren't really required it more how many cores and threads the chip has and amount of cache. Whilst also keeping it under a modest wattage. I got the idea recently when watching an Iceberg tech video where he accquired an 8C/16T Xeon E5 2670 for £8. However the motherboards cost from £40 to £120. But you can get fairly cheap DDR3 kits on Ebay. Or would it be more worth it to buy a newer generation Xeon (like 4-5 years newer than 2012) as the motherboards might be more common so therefore cheaper? As in regards for the rest of the build the other parts could be found for fairly low cost.
  5. At the moment with the progressions in ddr5 it is definitely worth it. Maybe not when it first came out but now definitely.
  6. Instead of the ryzen 5 7600 you could use a i5 13600K https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/bgrYGL Also possibly changing out your ssd and psu as well Also the radeon 6800 and variants have come down in price massively
  7. But it does the cpu uses the LGA 1700 socket type and that is what the motherboard as well. Its just that the B660 motherboards are more budget than the z690s.

  9. This might work, guys feel free to improve this. https://de.pcpartpicker.com/list/pxKgjZ
  10. There is no point in having an APU when he has a dedicated GPU. Unless he is updating the firmware on his motherboard to support 5000 series.
  11. I installed my new graphic drivers update on gefore experience. And I am very perplexed as to why this is happening? System is in my signature. Image:
  12. But warranty is more important since they have a relatively similar performance at 1080p and only marginally worse at 1440p. Later on in like 1 year when something goes wrong it would be better to have that warranty if a repair or replacement needs to happen. Than being out of a GPU.
  13. You could try using gpu-z which is software which allows to verify identity of card
  14. What did the listing say? Or provide us with a bit more
