Built my girlfriend a PC

Specs:
CPU- Ryzen 7 1700 (from my previous build)
GPU- GTX 1080 FE (got for $150)
RAM- 4GB x 4 3000Ghz (from my previous build)
Storage- 500GB crucial M.2 ($60)
Case- NZXT H510i ($100)
MB- B450 Aorus pro WiFi ($130)
PCIE riser- Fractal Flex ($50)
Total- $500 (about)

This wasn’t a bad build... I mainly decided to build it for her because I got the card cheap and I had the killer CPU on hand. She mainly uses it for playing Minecraft with me, drawing, and running Adobe products.

Not a bad build. You could upgrade the CPU for fairly cheap to a 3600X on your hands and do some real damage. :D

@Jayro I have the 5 3600 for my build paired with a RTX2070s. The reason I went with the 7 1700 because I had it on hand.
PS. I love the medicat tool you made :D

@Owenge lucky bastard, even a second hand 1080 here in Italy costs double anywhere.
Anyway, is FB marketplace as chaotic as EBAY?
 
Owenge
@leon315 This was a brand new with box and plastic and all. FB marketplace is a bit more chill... it's like a let go and ebay all in one :/

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
    for people with beefy hands.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space
