    Upgrading kid’s PC

    Just wanted to say thanks to all of you for your input! I ended up getting the rx580 and the kids are loving their upgraded systems! Now… any advice on what the next logical upgrade(s) would be lol? Would it make sense to get a better monitor (current has refresh rate of 75 Hz)… or is it a...

    Upgrading kid’s PC

    Hello again. Well, I’ve bought some components; so far I’ve put the PSUs in both PCs, next up I was planning on adding the SSD in each. I realize these may not have been the most optimal choices (like I know 700w is way more than needed) but I was in a big box store and there they were… PSU...

    Upgrading kid’s PC

    The latest in the upgrade saga for my kids - they really want new monitors. They currently both have a Dell S2421NX. Been a long time since I’ve looked at monitors… is there anything folks would recommend under $200? One of my sons said he heard this would be a good option: AOC C24G1A

    Thank you! What’s the consensus on buying used? As you can see I’m not aiming for the latest and greatest speed demon by any stretch of the imagination… but imagine stuff like PSUs and SSDs would be a no-no for used. Would RAM be okay used?
