  • If you are second-guessing about the CPU, you can’t go wrong with the 7800X3D. It is more expensive yes, but also a beast. With that you don’t have to upgrade for many years.

    You have 64 GBs of RAM. 32GBs i more than enough, unless you do heavy video editing or other reaaally professional stuff. You should take 32GBs and use that money for better CPU or GPU.

    I have been using Nvidia for a long time and haven’t had time to get into AMD scene, so I really can’t give any input on your choice of GPU.

    Water cooling is not necessarily better than air cooling. Check out this video by JayzTwoCents for input: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQ3c0kspOb8

    Be sure to buy a fan for rear exhaust! I didn’t see one preinstalled in the case.

    And lastly about the monitor. You probably could get a cheaper FreeSync monitor. Be sure to check extensive reviews that test all aspects of the monitor. That means no reviews from PC Gamer etc.

    Well, price caps are against the principles of the free market. So, on an ideological level it doesn’t make sense.

    Any ideology hardly ever works as it is, so changes need to be adapted to make the ideology work. Capitalism is very much tied to western electoral “democracy”. The idea in capitalism is that the economy works as a separate entity from government. This simpy is not true since it is the legislation that allows for capitalism to function in the first place.

    The so called " free market" has never been free. When there is a crisis, governments give aid to capitalists, which is againts capitalistic principles. Capitalism would not function without governmental intervention and would collapse. The price caps are simply just a another tool to preserve capitalism.

    Price caps can also be a way to limit profits made by capitalists. Basic necessities like water, food and electricity should have price caps in a way, that profit cannot be made.

    But at the end of the day, price caps are a tool to preserve capitalism, not to change economical status quo.









  • I agree. The name is really US-centrist. Not giving good vibes.

    Bitch, other countries use english too. No country should have dibs on general words to represent something that conserns, in this case, only one country.

    I have noticed the same thing about US government websites end in .gov I think no government should have that privledge. Other governments use english too. Could US officials take their head out of their asses and use an ending like .usgov
