Please forgive me, of the many things I’ve forgotten…this is…one of them. I could’ve sworn there used to be an updated rolling sticky with 3-4 (maybe more?) build suggestions from ‘meh’ to ‘super ultra mega I can’t afford space kraken’ posted and maintained by people way smarter than I am, somewhere on the main page/sidebar of PCMR.
I’ve got a ~6 year old mini-ITX AMD build that I’m hoping to replace with something similar, and I’d used those suggestions last time with great success. I’m hoping to build something that’ll last another 6 years. If anyone has any idea what the heck I’m talking about, I’d appreaciate you pointing me the right direction.
Thanks in advance!
Ugh, went to look at the site, and you’re right. This obsession with “avoiding bottlenecks” is stupid. The goal should always be to maximise FPS with the budget on hand. If that means a slightly bottlenecked pairing, go for it.
