As the title says, though this was a bit more difficult than a typical CPU because I had to heat it up with my brand new heatgun I purchased today.

Finally got some pics for my current rig, just got the Corsair RAM cooler installed and everything. I love how the silver shroud on the RAM cooler makes it look like its RGB because its reflecting the RGB off of my TridentZ Neo kit. Specs are in my sig if you are curious.

This thread was really helpful. Thanks a ton guys. @TwilightRavens u are awesome bro

I'm going to assume you bought it used 
Try flashing it with an original bios for the card and then check.

Then yes, dual channel will be thrown out of the window. If you can I'd just get a 2x8 kit and sell the 2x4 kit

FX CPUs are severely outdated by this point. A Ryzen 5 3600 would more than have you covered. The 1060 may or may not be ok for whatever you want to do.

I will actually do that once I find a working EVGA or XFX 790i Ultra SLI board for a non stupid price (i.e. $100 or less and NOT from China) to replace my current fried one, the LGA 771 Xeon I had in there could hang with a stock 2500K with its overclock (that's probably why its fried now that I think about it...)

none. a 10600k is a bad buy and spending more on board than a CPU is a bad buy too.
wait till the fall you get new ryzen launches get a 4700X( or whatever the r7 chip is with good value) and a midgrange x570 or high end b550 board

GTX 670 would be a lot better, Nvidia stopped releasing drivers for 400 and 500 series cardsback in April 2018. That card performs worse than a GTX 950 and on par with a 750 ti. My overclocked GT 1030 performs about the same depending on the game.

My bad i mathed wrong, i was calculating 200 mbit in my head for some reason.

If the max you see is 100 mbps then that means you have a 100 megabit plan which equates to about 10-12 megabytes per second, meaning no matter if you have a gigabit capable card or not you won’t see much over 100 megabit.

you may need to update the bios with a 2nd gen or older ryzen cpu before installing the 3200g. that being said ryzen 3000 has been out for so long that most if not all new boards should have it updated already. if you are worried you can get the b450 mortar MAX, which is confirmed to have the updated bios.

GPU benchmarks hardly relies on the cpu
That doesn't matter 
A good cpu is to remove any Bottleneck from the equation

Yeah I don't think the cat is planning to build a top secret pc in that case, but i could be wrong 🤣

Go to an electronics dump or recycling center and get one for free?

Look at one of those cheap diy cases for like 13 dollars 

Is that socket 423 or 478? I wanna say 478 by the looks of it. Anyway love the idea and creativeness.

Still waiting on some thermal compound, but I’ve cleaned up the decade old machine and put it back together in... totally the same way- nobody will notice right?
