Full of highs and lows is the best I can describe the conversation today. And at the end, it was suggested that I don’t go for the 8350. And at one time he suggested that I get an AIO that would work with my current case.
\nThe reason for the AIO, is my current cooler wouldn’t work for the 8350 (let alone the 9590). He said it only cools up to 120W, and I needed something that could cool up to 250W. The 8350 is 150W… so you get the idea.
\n–
\nSo as to getting me something that’ll last 5-10 years, he said it would be too unrealistic for my budget, and I should focus on something like.. 2-3 years instead, which would give me enough time to save up for another upgrade. And I actually agree with him. Just, 2-3 years feels like it’ll fly by without warning. But I forget just how long a single year lasts.
\nThe other reason, he states VR has ‘thrown a wrench’ into how hardware progresses, forcing manufactures to make even higher end hardware for it.
\nFinally, he says to save up at least<\/em> $300, then me and him will look up used parts. He warned me the dangers of doing so, which I already am aware of.<\/p>\n

.
\nA bit of a disappointment I couldn’t go the 8350 route, but he said (like so many others), I would be wasting too much money and getting very little for it.
\nBut, it’s OK. I’ll live. $300 isn’t that<\/em> hard of a goal to reach (since my mother said she’s going to be helping me out).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
