@Ciggavelli needs a reality show
I've actually thought of setting up a YouTube account dedicated to my bad luck and electronics troubles (as everybody knows, I have the worst luck with tech). I'd just fukking rage in each video. People in real life think it's fukking hilarious when I go on rages and go on rants. I think others would too

Maybe I should start that in Houston :jbhmm:

Will an Intel quad core(7600 is what I'm looking at, no overclocking) be ok for gaming and photoshop? Or should I look at a 6 core ryzen? I keep changing my mind on a bunch of shyt. I know for certain I'm building this fall though

It was actually an i5 7600k I was exploring. You think I should go i7 7700? And I'm planing on building with 16gb of corsair vengeance ram sticks(2x8gb). Also I'm getting a 1060 6gb video card if that info helps
Get a 1070. Maybe you might wanna get a Ryzen 7 1700 if you want to be about that workstation life.

Using a NZXT hue+ and 3 RGB aer fans. Comes with led strips and all controlled by NZXT Cam software. Looks good to show off but mostly i keep the rgb muted.

Don't clean your PC brehs. I found a very cheap XPS 410 on craigslist and figured it would be dirty, but not as bad as it really was inside.

The fans don't even tell half of it :huhldup:

TBH I am not sure how a fire did not spark inside with all the dust that was inside the XPS 410. Cleaned out completely, upgraded bios, 8GB RAM, 120GB SSD and Q6600 for about $105 total :ehh:
