      But that's true, unless you are fine really subpar gaming experience and excessive power bills, then keep FX, otherwise it's time to move on. Even a cheap build with B460 board, i3 10100F and 16GB 2666MHz DDR4 will annihilate any FX CPU. And whole setup is less than 300 USD.

      Also he said “sell your FX system it’s a decade old.”
      Meanwhile a Intel Core 2 Quad Q8400 is slower then a FX4300 in most multithreaded workloads. And a FX6300 or FX8350 are much better then the Q8400. And still Jays’ advice for the Q8400 owner is “upgrade your gpu.”
      Am I missing something? I haven’t tested Q8400 or lower end FX systems in a while but pretty sure I am correct.
      If I was the Q8400 owner I would upgrade to a newer platform (AMD Ryzen or Intel) and keep the GTX970 and upgrade that further down the line.

The "dust" was like super dark brown and partly burnt in some spots. Over cooked his cpu like that like 3 times before he understood he needed to clean his pc more than once a year. Since he was my roommate for like 5 years he did pick up a lot more about maintenance and building. I still have his old pcs with a bunch of my old pcs that just got outdated. Got some from the mid to late 90's too. One day I'll get them all working so I can give some people nostalgia trips and teach some of my family members kids about pc's while getting to show how things have changed with them.

    I built my brother's setup on an Alex desk. At first I was like "oh cool, I can stuff all the cable in the cable management bar, and don't go through the hassle I went through for my own setup !"
    Then I realised that the setup would be centered, with the monitor excatcly in the middle of the desk, where the slit hole is for the cables to come out... And also that the PC sits half on the desk, and half on the little door that close the thing : If I want to acces the cables, I have to move the screen and the PC. That was not easy to cram everything in without it looking like garbage, but I achieved it, and honestly, once it is done, no need to think about it again...
    ... until you upgrade something. My brother had a 60Hz screen, anf wanted to go 144Hz. Fine, I mean why didn't he have one already? I let him pick one up online... He chose the cheapest "good" monitor with ajustable height and stuff, a LG panel. I overlooked the fact that the powersupply is not embedded into the monitor, but is an external powerbrick. So, I can't just swap the monitors keeping the same power cable, so I need to remove that cable, therefore moving the PC, etc a fking mess. And then I realised the powerbrick doesn't fit on the powerstrip to allow me to close the fucking door, I had to search for a freakin' power extention to be able to fit it, there is easily 2 to 2.5m of useless cable in that cable management compartment now.

    Hey now, I'm still running FX processors in my homelab. They work great for running a few k8s workloads and my plex server. I bought this stuff before Ryzen existed and Intel was out of my price range. I wanted cheap and relatively power efficient (compared to actual server hardware) homelab gear and they fit the bill (microcenter bundles ftw). And honestly at this point, it would cost more for me to sell them and upgrade than to just keep running them until they die.

      @Da Mighty Shabba There are hundreds of CZcams Videos showing you why it's a relatively bad idea to try and game on a workstation CPU (and more importantly mainboard). Watch some of those before you make your decision.
      Also, out of the about 10000 new games coming out each year, only 6 (maybe 7 next year) are capable of really using more than 4 threads, so ...
      Before you spend money, read some benchmarking articles and really figure out which CPU can give you the most performance per $.
      Or get something close to a 3700X because that's what the next generation of XBOX & PS4 will use, so it's a pretty safe bet for the next decade.

      I’m still rocking an 8350 and dual 970’s, all on custom water!!! Runs everything well enough that I play, at high enough graphics and FPS, why build a new system? I don’t spend $300/yr on all the latest games and try to keep up with the Jones’, so I don’t need top tier hardware. I think most of the tech-tubers have become spoiled a bit with all the access they have to hardware (freebies or income to buy outright), that they forget you don’t need to play on ultra settings to enjoy a game!

A friend literally asked if I was trying to melt something, I now realize that the answer to that question was my PC). I passed the decade mark and realized just how old my CPU was when I started shopping for a new one.

    Absolutely, an SSD brought back to life my wife's old FX system, (lol. I know). Cool part is, it's in a vintage case, black and silver much older than that. And no you cannot have it, lol. A video card upgrade to a 1060 also worked wonders for her. Goes to prove your point, that those two are the most significant upgrades. She plays mostly Ark and Conan and the difference it made was absolutely incredible on such a Dinosaur. Don't worry a Ryzen is in the planning in the future, I get it.
