    Anything better than this $30 Seasonic PSU?

    Not bad at all. For $35, Best Buy has a couple EVGA options you could probably pick up same day: W1-series 600W 80 Plus: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/evga-w1-series-600w-atx-12v-eps-12v-80-plus-power-supply-black/8511029.p?skuId=8511029 BA-series 500W 80 Plus Bronze...

    What Mouse and Keyboard Are You Using Right Now?

    GMMK full-size with mostly Panda switches, some browns. Kind of want a GMMK Pro now. Glorious Model O, previously an MX518 (the updated model)

    Recommend me a high end monitor

    $3000?! Just go all out. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1621997-REG/lg_32ep950_b_32_oled_uhd_dci_p3.html?ap=y&smp=y I feel that if you're looking for a monitor for differing purposes (in this case gaming and work), you have to make some compromises. Do you want a super fast response...

    Cheap "gaming" mouse?

    Nixeus Revel (looks like an Intellimouse) - found one for like $20 on Amazon for a cousin. He's pretty happy with it, especially for the price. Can't find it anymore, but eBay has them for $25. Has a Pixart 3360 optical sensor, just like all the expensive gaming mice.

    Building an 8700k ITX system for my son. What do I lose using H370 vs Z370?

    Check out the Cooler Master Elite 130. Probably not as fancy as others (its around $50) but it supports ATX power supplies and longer (14" length I think) video cards. I built my cousin a Ryzen system with a GTX 1060 and a Corsair AIO 120mm liquid cooler using this case. ITX builds are kind of a...

    QVL memory lists

    I've used multiple different types of DDR4 on separate Ryzen builds (that were not on the memory QVL) with no ill effects.

    Odd DDR3 issue on X79

    Mine does the same thing. Pretty sure it's an inherent problem with these motherboards - Google searches reveal all sorts of strange RAM-related issues with this motherboard, aside from the typical compatibility issues with certain brands of memory. Some people report entire DIMM slots being...

    1st AMD build in a long time!!

    My cousin purchased a CoolerMaster Elite 130 (ITX case) last year and finally got around to purchasing the rest of the system from MicroCenter yesterday. It's not a super high-end rig, but it should still be sufficient enough for gaming. I probably should have picked up a Ryzen 5 2400g, but the...

    Don't overlook those Ryzen 5 1400

    Just picked one up for a system I'm building for a cousin. $170 with a ASUS Prime B350-Plus mATX motherboard from MicroCenter ($119.99 for the 1400, $79.99 - $30 = $49.99 for the motherboard). Going to pick up an upgraded heatsink for him as well and see how far I can push it in his mATX case...

    Microsoft to Kill Off OneNote’s Desktop App

    FWIW, OneNote and the "Sticky Notes" apps are completely different. Same with OneNote compared to Notepad or Wordpad, which are really just basic text editors. OneNote is a bit more powerful and allows for much better organization of text. You can also add screenshots, audio commentary, etc.

    Microsoft to Kill Off OneNote’s Desktop App

    I'd love to see the percentage of those users that actually *use* it. Probably less than 5%.

    Intel i7 7820x $379

    Last thing I need is to be tempted to upgrade... DDR4 prices are killing me right now too.

    Nvidia GTX 1030 card recommendation for HTPC?

    I'm always the type of person to replace the TIM on the stock coolers with something a bit better, like AS5 or Arctic MX-4. Should be good for a few degrees C.

    Anyone have a older Win XP / 98 laptop for playing older games?

    Looks like that laptop is from the mid-2000's. DDR2 era. Should be overkill for early 2000's titles, so you'll definitely be good.
