Never had an AMD. My last ATI was 15 years ago.

Where are we at on this Gus?  Don't be missing the opportunity to take advantage of your wife's irrational allowance of you spending money on a gaming rig you want brother!

^I hear you. Shopping still. Still leaning towards buying the parts and assembling, but I have found a few Falcon NW builds like Pratt recommends above for some really good prices, around 1800-1900. So...torn, a bit right now.

There is a primal satisfaction to be derived from building your own computer, much like that which you gain after brewing your first batch of tasty home-made beer. It's true that you merely followed the careful steps outlined by others who blazed the trail before you but is that any different than assembling a kit-built light aircraft or replicating your Grandmother's classic savory biscuits? Do it at least once, just so that when your grand children (or better yet great grand children) ask you what life was like back in the twenty-teens you can say "Well, among other things, we sometimes built our own computers" and you can see their eyes widen with wonder.  ;)

Just stay away from my Grandma's biscuits and everything will be fine.

Toonces - Don't ask me, I just close my eyes and take it.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

Almost there...comparing some NewEgg builds to the Tiki.

The one time I needed some serious customer service from Newegg, they went above & beyond.  No hassle.  All in one phone call.   :smitten:

That's the only place I've been buying parts for many years now.

Think I found it:

That plus an Acer monitor for around 1650.00. I would love to get a Falcon but a similar built would be around 2300.00.
