Yes, its my job

Yes, but only air-cooled.

Yes, that's me on the left ooops

Saving up to do it soon. Not even super sure there's any AAA games worth playing coming any time soon but I also wanna try VR and maybe Cyberpunk.

Yes I built most of the PCs I have owned. I love the one I'm currently using.

Same, the idea of liquids next to expensive parts makes me too nervous despite what anyone says.

>>307076
yeah, i mostly just buy parts, its cheaper and i like the building aspect

Honestly you could save yourself a lot of money if you dont wanna play anything current by getting yourself a 1080TI super. Save yourself like $2k right there. Stay on DDR4 ram. Save money on ram and Mobo that way. Just get yourself a HDD and an SSD and call it a day.

You don't need anything more than a Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120 EVO

Yeah, liquid cooling is for people who treat building PCs as their hobby. There's absolutely no need for it if you're not doing useless stuff like overclocking for meager performance increases.

>>307124
all you need is the stock AMD cooler

>>307127
I tried using mine, and it made my PC so hot you could burn your hand on it. Although I'm also using one of those smaller Node cubes as my case and the air circulation is not as great as it would be in a large one. Then I got the biggest cooler I could fit inside and had no issues ever since.

>>307122
Which is better, AMD or Intel?

No because I'm retarded

>>307139
Currently AMD by a long shot, Intel really dropped the ball.

Yeah, though it's a lot easier these days than when I started doing it.

What's the difference between 9950X and 9950X3D

>>307226
3D heh
