RE: does liking windows 10 make me a faggot?
Oh yeah? Well I liked Windows ME! Maybe.
The computer is uninteresting to look at. I haven't even put the side panels back on yet. The case is probably 12 years old. Back then it was $40 and came with a POS PSU, keyboard and mouse. It was a total econobuild. No windows or blinkenlights. The PSU I'm using is a holdover from the last build which I transferred over to some HP box (btw, lots of the big name manufacturers make nice cases with some handy features), which is some zalman 400W thing. I figured that since my old proc was 95W TDP and the new one is 65W, I'd be ok. CPU is a hot off the press Ryzen 2600, and mobo is an ASS ROCK AB350 pro4 blah blah. th4t1guy suggested not skimping on a board.. I didn't think I did, and then when I realized that the chipsets for AMD's new CPUs are so minimalist and don't really do all that much, I started to think that their boards should be even cheaper. Ram is 16gb of some gskill 2666mhz. ssd is 120gb team group cheapie that I got free with the CPU. I'll at least stick in another mechanical drive for now, but I'll probably get another ssd soonish. I knew ssds would be awesome, but I didn't know just how awesome. They're so awesome that I'm thinking about marrying one. GPU is my old GTX 660 for now. I'm leaning towards getting a 1060.
My keyboard is my old cheapie Logitech k120 for now. I don't do much typing so I didn't need anything that was, ya know, quality. Ever since I dropped a can of ginger ale on the floor and it managed to spray half of it into the air and land on my keyboard, I had a few gummed up keys. Being too lazy to go buy a new one, I had finally decided to take it apart and wash it. The rubber membrane cleaned up easy enough, but unless I was willing to rip off a bunch of the keys (I wasn't) they were going to be more tedious to clean. As I was washing it in the bathtub I learned where what must have been most of my missing hair had gone. How so much ended up under the keys I'll never know. My mouse says DELL on it. That's good, right?
