Pop! OS by System 76, Firefox Web Browser for Low-end Gaming PC Build, Ryzen 5500, B550 MSI, GTX 3050 6GB, 32GB DDR4 3200Mhz, 650W 80+Gold PSU, Vulcan 256GB M2, Still cost me $800.48
Though I got a full gaming keyboard, dope monitor, nice case with 3 fans included, a really novel CPU cooler, really high end PSU, dope mainboard, & what appears to be good ram with aluminum heat sinks, through I dreamt of smashing some copper water pipe to make a custom heatsink for the VRM's on the mainboard and GPU, to keep them a tad cooler to make them last longer. Relatively easy, it gives me a path to some DIY fun, as does some bright yellow spray paint in a can that I will use to custom paint part of my rig to personalize it, including graphics for Pop! OS by System 76, Firefox Browser, Wifi 6 MSI B550, GTX3050 6GB OC, 32GB 3200MHz DDR4, 650W 80+Gold PSU, Up-cycled M2 drive 256GB
AMD Ryzen 5-5500, B550 MSI PRO VC, ASUS dual fan GTX 3050 6GB, 32GB DDR4 3200Mhz Puskill Gaming RAM, Rosewill 650W 80+Gold PSU, Vulcan 256GB M2, Still cost me $800.48
I harvested M2 Vulcan 256 from an old mining rig, while 64GB Kingston USB key used to flash the ISO was found on a public bus with nothing on it. Waiting on Amazon for all the parts, but decided on System 76's Linux as the best net solution for CS2 on PC, but also allowing Web with Firefox secure and lightweight browser with low ram footprint. The 70w low power GPU can run on PCI-e 4.0 port DC energy budget of 150 watts, while this build allows for a better graphics card, as the PSU has a dedicated 450 watt cable for GPUS, but that will be retained for a future upgrade. Desktops being full modular, almost like Lego's to put together, can be updated, mainboard, ram & cpu, gpu, PSU, case, cooling method, its all parts that go together in millions of possible combinations. Why did I go with GTX 3050 6GB OC Asus Dual Fan, because it was $180, while the 4X8gb DDR4 32GB 3200MHz cost $232, more than $50 more than the GPU, noting RAM prices are high because of demand for AI training, but odd that DDR4 288pin desktop sticks would be expensive, who uses those on AI training rigs anyways?
