Banks have obviously encouraged themselves to take a more serious approach to BTC, of ​​course all because they can trade it through ETFs. On the one hand, it is good for the price, because the demand could jump, but all those people who will invest in this way are actually buying shares in the fund, and will probably never use BTC in the way it was intended.

My advice to those buying PCs:

- Don't buy a laptop (unless you need to move it regularly),
- Don't buy a branded desktop,
- Build your own desktop PC,
- Obvious: pick a good chipset / socket / CPU / GPU,
- Put as much RAM as you can (at least 128 GB),
- Use plenty of Samsung M.2 NVMe storage modules,
- Important: buy a big, BIG, high quality monitor (at least 34").

I prefer a 27-inch curved screen (I even have one), I considered a larger one, but it seemed to melt my eyes.

But what you said, I completely agree, I built my computer myself, without even having experience in it (thanks YouTube)... it's not that difficult, everything is done to make assembly easier... And it is still possible to save a lot of money and have a personalized computer of extreme quality.

Also important for new builders:

[...]

- Check compatibility of everything before ordering (Mobo - CPU - RAM)
- Spend some money on the PSU. Get a good reputable brand.
- Do not think more thermal paste = better cooling.

Good points, especially the first. I've been bitten by this once--bought two expensive RAM modules, which kept crashing my system (were not on the mobo compatibility list).

Also, liquid cooling is very efficient, but I don't like the feeling of having liquid flowing inside the PC case. I prefer good air cooling.

Finally, I'm not a fan of overclocking. I run the CPU / GPU at stock frequencies.

OT: The clearest sign that humanity is doomed?

That every high profile tech company (except for Bitcoin), with stocks that keep rising, has a narrative that is a long term bet against humanity.

That's why the Average Joe investors with a conscious don't understand modern day investing: that in order to make money, you have to bet against humanity's future.

Powell: now only one rate cut, jobs data was a "bit" overstated.
Only AI related companies "doing well".

US economy sounds like trash. $1 trillion per year on debt interest. Madness.

UK even worse. No ideas for growth during election cycle. "Green economy" "Wealth tax".
Good luck. GDP Per Capita stagnating and even going down.

Still inflation...

Also important: Get educated to successfully build your own workhorse PC. You might shortcut this and turn to the usual tech geek, but then it's not exactly "your" PC.

I can only second all the other points in AlcoHoDL's checklist.
The only PC at home that i didn't build myself (but wait...) is the Dell desktop i use for astrophotography processing. However, i customized it a bit (GPU, PSU, storage, cooling).
I can't remember any of my PC's that i didn't touch in its most intimate areas   Wink

Stay away from this guy. Watching that video made me hurt.

After seeing all the super-computers in here, my i7-5820 isn't cutting it anymore.  I'm going to have to get more serious about my desktop upgrade.  I just bought my youngest a 16" Lenovo Slim 5 with a Ryzen 5-7530U so I could take back my little 13" Asus Zenbook (I love the all metal case) and it's much more powerful than my desktop.  Heck, the Zenbook isn't much slower than my desktop.  This will not stand, ya know, this aggression will not stand, man.

I love my Zenbook (UM431DA - Ryzen5-3500U, the one with the better HK speakers), it's the first i didn't switch for another one after the battery went bad, but replaced the battery. Still no reasonable successor found, been flirting with lenovo's T and X series lately, i wish lenovo would get their displays right, because that would make it a no-brainer.
The only thing i don't like about the Asus are the first few seconds of putting the cold thing on my lap when i'm naked, but the macbooks felt a bit colder.
If Apple wouldn't have made incrementally shitty decisions regarding OSX, i would still buy their stuff.

I have a nice thread ripper rig  sitting in a box.
128gb ram
aorus nvme2 500gb ssd and 20 or 30 rtx 3090 gpus



it would crush your i7-5820

 You bastard!  Wink


you did a lot giving hats out for us. pm me

 Awww thanks philipma1957, I appreciate the thought but my wife is poised, with checkbook in hand, to cut me a check for a new machine as soon as I make up my mind as to exactly what I want.   I'm still trying to digest all the advice and research material you guys gave me.


Nice...don't forget to share the setup, please.
