Useful Links For Building a PC

Post by frohner1 »

Here are some links that I use for reference and to help me determine compatible parts.

PCPartPicker - https://pcpartpicker.com/
This lets you configure custom builds and will show compatibility issues.

Bottleneck Calculator - https://pc-builds.com/calculator/
This also includes a PSU calculator. I have found some errors in wattage, but this is a good start to figuring out what you should get.
"Your system is specified by your weakest component, not the fastest one."

I began my adventures on the Internet back when GeoCities (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yahoo!_GeoCities) ruled the World Wide Web. My first 2 websites were fansites dedicated to Pokémon, and the American heavy metal band Metallica. It was a simpler time.
