Uhh, that was just a really esoteric type of slang. Yup. Totally intentional.

(Thanks!)

It was. Please heed the warning when posting in the future.

My personal theory is that the OS is so ubiquitous and "just there" in so many use cases that people just take it for granted. Then, when presented with having to pay for it, it seems unnecessary/surprising.

Added and adding. You can expect more/all to be up soon.

Please don't self-censor while leaving part of curse words in your post. It's better to just use the word and let the site's profanity filter handle it or fully censor the term yourself.

This is skirting a little too far into "implying as a solution or option" territory. Gonna have to delete.

Sorry, your offer is generous, but due to bad experiences with giveaways in the past, we do not currently allow giveaways on the site.

Joke or not, please keep feedback polite and constructive.

Keep in mind that the goal with this guide isn't to cut cost at the expense of all else. Cheaper PCs can always be had. This guide seeks to provide good performance and build experience for roughly $500.

Intel K CPUs cannot be overclocked on B360 motherboards, so I'm not sure what you're getting at there. Chipset selection is not solely about CPU overclockability. I think that misconception may be coloring your view here. The H310 chipset is not even capable of dual channel memory support. It's also far more limited on PCI-E lanes, both in number and generation (PCI-E 3.0 vs PCI-E 2.0). There are several other reasons to choose B360 motherboards over H310 ones for gaming, but suffice to say, the differences I mentioned are more than worth the $15 price difference between the B360 board in the list and the H310 A you're recommending.

I'm not quite sure I'm following you here. You're saying a 240GB SSD is useless but then recommending a 250GB SSD at over 50% increased price and saying that would be enough for a typical user.

Cases are very much a personal choice. Cheaper cases can entirely be justified, but I prefer to recommend cases that will be a little easier and more pleasant to build in, especially for newer builders. The Q300L also, in my opinion much nicer to look at - both inside and out.

I assume you're speaking of the Rosewill ARC 450. I only add PSUs to the list that have reviewed well, as I and the community take PSU quality very seriously. I don't operate off assumptions with this. Unfortunately, I've not yet found any reviews of the ARC 450.

Additionally, the CXM (2015) 450 is $5 cheaper at $30 at MIR, though of course MIRs aren't for everyone.

I would be careful citing speculation and rumor as fact when it comes to future releases.

No problem! Thanks for the kind words.

Feedback is very much welcome, but please keep it constructive. For example, what would you like to see different?

Oop, I forgot I made that change, thanks!

Please keep feedback polite and constructive.

Ah, I see what happened here. I've made an update, and they will show as compatible shortly.

Is there a part list that shows it incompatible with 420mm rads?

From the Code of Conduct:

Recommending or implying piracy as an option is also not allowed.

Also from the Code of Conduct regarding key resellers:

Similar to piracy - recommending or implying their use as an option is not allowed.

And now given this exchange, you're also violating the following:

And lastly, respect staff decisions and requests.

Accept responsibility for your actions and move on. This is the end of the discussion.

hinting, or in any way implying these keys as a solution or option

You did that.

Also stop copy and pasting this everywhere bud your fooling no one

It's my job to enforce the site rules. If you can't or won't follow our rules, you won't be permitted to post here.

Finally, some other person pirating does not make it magically okay for you to do so. Not to mention that you completely misunderstood the point of his video explaining why he does what he does.

Either adhere to our rules or don't post on the site. Those are your two options. It is not up for debate.

The Entry Level AMD build can be found here.

Thanks for the report. I've taken down the retailer listing until it is fixed.

Do not advocate piracy.

Additionally, the sale of those keys violate Microsoft ToS, and the keys may be unexpectedly disabled. Recommending, suggesting, advising, encouraging, hinting, or in any way implying these keys as a solution or option is not allowed on this site.

Whether that's a struggle for you or anyone else doesn't in any way excuse trolling or flaming. Please keep in mind that the person you're struggling to resist trolling is a real person behind the keyboard. Disagreeing with their build choices doesn't change that.

Your words matter, and we put a lot of stock in that concept here.

Sorry to hear you're having issues. That doesn't sound normal though. I recommend posting over in our Troubleshooting subforum to work out what went wrong. This shouldn't be a compatibility problem that comes up with pretty much any mobo+RAM combo.
