I built my last one myself, but I'm sure the savings aren't that great. I would use Scan in the UK but Brexit spoilt that for me, unless I get it shipped to my Mum and go and visit her You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Whatever my old 6700k struggled with in terms of Reaper projects, video editing and whatever else, this one just gobbles up like it's nothing. I obviously didn't buy a new graphics card, so I could use all of my budget of ~1700 euros other parts, rather than spend 600+ euros on a graphics card. However, my RTX2070 Super is of course not a long-term solution, but should last me fine as I'm not a big gamer. It runs okay for Hogwarts Legacy for instance on high settings, but at some point in maybe 2 or 3 years I'll likely upgrade, if not sooner. I have no regrets in my purchase, but I will likely also buy another M2 SSD at some point. Maybe 2 GB. I'm not running out of space per se right now, but I can see it becoming an issue at some point in the future. Got about 1 TB free space out of total of 4 TB at the moment, some older HDDs make up 3 TB of that though. I do have an external HDD as well with 1 TB unused though. But plugins (Superior Drummer + expansions, Spectrasonic Plugins, East West etc) take up a lot of space. I wanna say about 1.5 TB are plugins, roughly. Games take up a lot of space too these days. Anyway, no regrets at all! I didn't build mine myself (except for putting in the graphics card). I wouldn't have minded doing it myself, but the price difference was negligible, if there at all.

Very happy I didn't let me talk into that, as I'd have had to go lesser CPU, worse RAM etc. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I find most of the online talk regarding hardware purchases/building devolves into a price/performance competition with passive-aggressive commentary. So I try to just go with what works for my current situation and make the best decisions I can based on what I know. Been looking at OLED Monitors/TVs for a while now, waiting for prices to drop, and came across a great deal on an LG C2 42" last week. So I pulled the trigger. It's a beauty although I am a bit worried about burn-in when using it as a PC monitor so I'll likely need to baby it a bit to mitigate the chances of that.
