You aren’t wrong and yeah. Keep forgetting the CX’s are on sale. It’s why the 450W one is 16 bucks

I paid like 70 euro's for my cx550m...

 

and like 130 for a 860 evo 500 gb

 

prices these days are so good

You aren’t wrong. I could build my pc again now (non prebuilt) and probably have gotten 5x higher quality parts for cheaper

That's how I feel about my real old FX build I set up back in 2017 when rumors of Ryzen were coming out and I was an idiot in AIT for the Army and was making money for the first time. I ended up with an FX-8350 and R7 370 and it was shit even though I could have made a Ryzen build, and cheaper. I had bough the chip from someone on the forums that came with a motherboard and a GTX H100i cooler for $226.43 USD or $300 CAD. The only thing worth while I got from that build was the GTX H100i cooler, and while it still cools that old FX chip running at like 4.5GHz I wouldn't want to use it in any of my new builds and would rather just get a real nice air cooler and set up some push and pull fans on my case.

He just wants to know out of that what to get better. that’s why I suggested just grab the 2060

 

im guessing he got a prebuilt, as it smells of a prebuilt system with the configuration.

I was just looking over this post again because my tax refund will be in, in a couple of days and I'm just a bit satly over the "im guessing he got a prebuilt" its not a pre-built I just bought the parts when RAM was expensive as fuck, graphics cards were through the roof with mining ramping up, Z370 was still new and expensive, and SSDs were still rising in popularity and still pricey hence the MX300/275GB instead of a MX500/500GB.
