Just got charged for my monitor purchase despite it being on back order. I thought I saw that it’d in stock 11/2 so hopefully that comes. This build continues to develop.

Just was looking at the power it took for the GPU and CPU.
MSi Duke GTX 1080 (whatever clock out of the box) - I hit 206.7watts of power earlier while gaming
Intel i7 4790k - I hit 87.5 watts of power earlier while gaming
So 294.2 watts of power for just the CPU and GPU.

Was going to pick up a used 3600x tonight after work but the person selling it flaked just before I left work and said he wasn't available. Pissed me right off.

That 4790k is a relic, man. I thought my i5-7600k was getting outdated (it is because lack of hyperthreading for me).

Ryzen 5000 series sold out in a minute. Have a charge from NewEgg - let's hope that actually went through.

facebook marketplace. ad is still up but i really dont feel like wasting my time again. i'll be patient and wait for 5000 series to become readily available and maybe 3000 prices will go down more.

Yeah I trust FB marketplace over Craigslist. But still shady people on FB too.

For sure. I really want a 3600 and I got the price of the 3600x he was selling to $250. But after a bunch of one word answers and acronyms instead of sentences then blowing me off I wasn't in to it.
I'm hoping its still for sale in a couple weeks so I can offer him less than my first offer.

All this AMD talk and me watching videos/links about the new CPU's makes me want to build a new AMD setup.

Just got a notification from NewEgg that although they charged me for a 5800x they were unable to complete the order and will be refunding me.
I was ordering at 6:02 when the product went live at 6:00.

I don't watch movies so why plex? lol
I already have that free/gifted PC that I could make my secondary PC/server if needed. It's got i5-7500, 16GB RAM, 1060 GPU and an SSD.
