    Want to become a "Gamer" Need Help

    I recently got a controller for the first time and found that I really suck at using a controller, so I just use it to play Trackmania. Under kill for OPs build, but it's a good distraction to remind me that I have other things to do.

    Six Flags Magic Mountain is just north of LA if you're into that sort of thing, and you can pick up a box of oranges while your there, too!

    AMD Ryzen 9 5900X = $379.99 @ Newegg after instant rebate

    Best long term software support for unlocked cell phones

    My only problem with Apple products are the inability to install ad-blocking software like Blockada or DNS66, and their absolute dismal service when it comes to reasonable refund policies on app store purchases (with Google you have a designated time frame for a refund, with Apple you have to...

    Do people actually upgrade just the CPU and keep using existing motherboard?

    Damn I forgot about that one, C2D (E8400?) to a Xeon quad core (E5450 I think - I added microcode to the BIOS and used the pin swap sticker). The extra cores extended the life for a few more years.

    Do people actually upgrade just the CPU and keep using existing motherboard?

    Compare these GPU's - Do I accept?

    They seem to have the card available online as part of a bundle with a mainboard (you can always just sell the board when you get it). It was added to my card and let me start the checkout process.

    Buying open box motherboard - dumb idea?

    Yep, build it and burn it in for a few days then just leave it running to make sure everything is smooth. After that it's a keeper.
