Is it worth waiting for the new intel cpus? I was leaning towards going with Zen 3 but couldn't find any when I was looking last month.

I'm hoping to eventually get a 3080 whenever they are readily available (Current have a 1080)

My friend was able to get a 3060ti from micro center last week. Just walked in and it was there lol. As long as u sign up for stock notifications u should be able to come across a 3060ti/3070

But yea 3080s are non existent right now.

Nzxt Build has good product. Good parts sold at store prices. Only thing is they charge $100 for labor and warranty, which really isn’t bad

I had never heard of crucial until today, but everywhere I go, there they are

I went ahead and bought crucial after reading reviews

Crucial is Micron's own mainstream brand. Micron is a manufacturing company that specializes in ram and flash storage which they make for a lot of companies.

For me I wouldn't say laying around per se, I have 2 NAS units, a Drobo 5-Bay (filled), and Synology DS920+ 4-Bay (filled). I use those as storage and media/document servers.
