thunderbolt 4 or no?

ok, i have a question, should i get thunderbolt 4 for my pc build, and pay the extra 50 dollars (5000 rupees), or should i stich to a motherboard with usb 3.2 gen 2 usb c 2x2 ports?(yes i know usb c p specs are broken, can someone also explain that to to me)

Imagine everything i have written in a Linus Voice/ linus tone (Spock live long and prosper gif here ,idk why tho, i guess i just want to say that i like star trek and am waiting for new seasons of the ongoing shows), But seriously, a lot of what i type only makes sense when said in a Linus tone from an older ltt video (circa 2017-2019 & now 2024-onwards) basically before he got a beard and a lot of it should make sense even in a Linus with a beard face.

also note as per the latest typing test on my laptop, my accuracy is 69%

 

I'm not weird/creepy, I'm just observant I have ADHD and am not on any meds for it because I don't want to and don't need to be on meds. i also may just be depressed. If you find other things around you depressing, are you depressed or are you surrounded by depressing things?

No not really. You haven't listed what you are planning to buy as a whole system so... can't really give much more of an opinion until we get that info. 😛

uses= gaming, coding, undisclosed, etc.

also, i am going intel, as in India, i don't have to pay as much tax as amd so, intel 50% cheaper for a small 7 percent performance drop, so i would happily go for it

Ok, so all that is well and good but.. the question still stands. Do you have a use for Thunderbolt? If money isn't an issue, just get it. Can you rephrase the question?

nothing if you dont have a spesific use for it, it can be usefull for something like one cable solutions for your entire desktop but other than that not much if, again, you dont have a spesific device that need thunderbolt

Yes. Are you aware of what Thunderbolt is?
