Planning on building a PC, anything I should know? (beehaw.org)

I'm planning on building a PC soon and, while I have done plenty of research, I'd like to hear advice from people who have experience in the area personally. It's also just nice talking to other people in general, lol

I would absolutely use “PC Part Picker” because as you assemble the various components, that site will tell you if there are incompatibilities. For instance whether a power supply will fit in the case.

And if you don’t have someone to bounce ideas off of, this is a pretty good site that was recommended to me to help narrow your choices.

I second Logical Increments, it's great.

I've used Logical Increments for a couple builds and liked it a lot. I didn't copy their recipe verbatim, but you get some good starting points both on compatibility and cost.
