MUCH better HDD, more pwoerful GPU, better power supply and a case that won't choke the components (H500 has poor thermal performance)

That's the Sapphire Pulse, not reference, though - it's vastly superior to the 2060S and even beats the 2070S

It just needs a manual fan profile, it'll run much louder but mine stays at 85 degrees max after that. plus, none of the AIB cards are actually in stock.

I'll give you the TL:DR

 

Sabrent is not a "no-brand random SSD" it is a very respectable North American company that has been doing perfectly fine drivers with reputable components and offers considerable higher value than the overpriced Samsung 970 Evo.

It was a guy that looks like he's gonna sell you used cars telling you statistics and it boiled down to the Sambrent Rocket brand being decent.
