dtgreene: Still haven't built my new computer (though having my old desktop working does help), and I need some advice:
Current specs for new computeR:
* Storage: 1TB NVMe SSD (WD Black), has already been purchased
What I'm looking to run well (ideally 1080p, but can settle for less, and can make do with lower settings; will not be using 4K, as I don't have a display that can handle that):
* Bard's Tale IV
* Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteos
* Older games like Wizardry 8
* Indie games like Hollow Knight (including Silksong), Ikenfell, Fell Seal: Arbiter's Mark, Celeste
Specs I'm currently looking at:
* CPU: AMD Ryzen 5600g or 5700g (is the 5700g worth the extra expense?)
* GPU: None, going to use integrated graphics (might change when prices become reasonable again)
* RAM: At least 16BG (would 32GB make sense?)
* OS: Some form of Linux. Probably Debian, but I'm open to something like Arch, Fedora, or Gentoo
Other features that I'd like:
* Prefer the computer to be quiet when idle and not too noisy when playing a game
* Would be nice to have modern connectivity options like USB-C, USB 3.2 or later, DisplayPort and/or HDMI
* Computer shouldn't be too hard to open (I like my current desktop's case, with its ability to open without tools)
* Prefer the computer itself not to emit too much light (so I'd rather not have RGB, for example)
So, any advice? I'm particularly interested in which AMD CPU makes more sense, given the significant price difference, and on what sort of motherboard makes sense to pair with it.
me, what the crap this guy talk about "GPU: None, going to use integrated graphics (might change when prices become reasonable again"
checking Alternate.....
who are those people buying those?. i almost laughing at them that they spend like 2K on a item that's obsolute within a year time.
