What is your current budget?:
$1-2k
This is what I have:
Case
PSU
This is what I'm looking to buy
Mobo
Proc
CPU cooler
Was originally thinking this Gfx card but I wouldn't be able to utilize all of that memory so I think I would be better off getting Gfx card or maybe upgrading to Gfx card.
Thinking about getting either a 16 GB kit RAM or save some money down the road by getting the 32 GB kit RAM.
Was originally thinking HDD for OS, HDD for Games, and HDD for storage but then I thought about getting 4 of these HDD and using RAID 1 + 0.
Also might need some thermal paste. AS5?
I think that's everything I "need" to get started.
How do you intend to use this new part or new computer? What's the heaviest load it's likely to encounter?
I'll likely never be able to utilise this to it's fullest potential but I've currently deluded myself into thinking that if I go with these parts I won't have to upgrade for say 5+ years.
