Very glad I asked then! Thanks for the excellent advice.

Single channel RAM was so he could buy a second stick of 8GB RAM later on when he has some more money - is this a bad idea?

I don’t think he’s super invested in one particular case - what about getting a different one would help? Just cheaper?

Hi all/Setsul :)

I'm helping my girlfriend's younger brother build his first PC later this month, and he's picked out a rough build - for context, he wants to use the computer for gaming and schoolwork, and doesn't tend to play many Source games.

His planned build: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/KfTJkd

Based on some advice a friend gave, I think he probably ought to switch out the processor and motherboard for a better processor and slightly cheaper board - something like this maybe? https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/L2y4NQ

His budget is around £650 excluding OS - are there any obvious changes he ought to make or is this going to be OK for a first build? I was also going to recommend he waits to buy everything until Amazon Prime Day in a couple of weeks' time.

NB: The case he wants is not quite right on partpicker, it's this one: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Phanteks-PH-EC416PSTG_BR-PC-Casing/dp/B01MU2QVK2/

Thank you (+ thanks for the credit on ETF2L)

My draft technique has been exposed.

- Tactically drops three of his own teammates in the uber
- Manages to avoid detection when going to hide in full view of the enemy team in the most obvious spot on the map
- Cunningly times his capture to coincide right with the enemy scout spawning.

Pretty sick play tbh. High Open at least.

Ayy cheers guys

Option 2.

1 will drive you insane if you like your space and 3 will leave you isolated which is probably enough of a problem anyway as a TF2 nerd.

Wallpapers rotate each day, but I do really like this one.

Bought a better Portable Charger for that extra Pokemon Go range.

Yah but how many grandparents did you chat to about it?

Anyway, disaster.
