Anyone build anything lately
Since the world has been going to shit, thought I would see if anyone has built anything recently.
With the upcoming release of the 3000 GPUs, I might have to build one. Wife is also about to start a new business, and we will need a bigger better computer anyway. |

Thanks to Fish, I've got my eyes set on a Ryzen 3900x build for my studio.
I'm still trying to suss out the Thunderbolt/USB 3.1(c) thing because my audio interface supports Thunderbolt but I've not had much luck so far in my limited research in terms of motherboard choices. |

That should be really good for all that you do, it should be able to handle about anything you throw at it. It’s crazy to watch how quick these new CPUs process everything compared to what was around a few years ago. Be sure to take some pictures of that build when you get it done, would love to see it. |

Seriously though, I have Thunderbolt 3 and it's very, very responsive for everything from audio to storage. I run a 2nd display off of TB. |

I have a MOTU ES828 Thunderbolt 3/USB 2.0 audio interface and in my conversations with MOTU, there are some specifics that need to happen in order for Thunderbolt to work properly with a PC, including a certain Win 10 driver. |

Oh sorry, wasn't clear. I have an iMac. MacOS has supported TB natively since 1.0

Funny you say that. I just signed up to be notified by Nvidia when the 3080 is released on 9/17. Going to do a Christmas build for one of my boys.

I hope it’s true too, it would be a great bang for the buck. I seen the 3080 runs two 8 pin connectors and was recommended 750 power supply. Now signed up, thanks for the link |

Sure, I’d enjoy the conversations. My 21 year old’s best friend lives with us and my two high school boys have so many friends in and out it would probably take me a week or two to figure out you were here.

I just recently finished a build of a 67 Precision Bass....built her from parts that took me about a year and a half to locate. She is going to be a Christmas present to my Grandson..

That’s pretty awesome. I have never thought about people putting together instruments, but now that you brought it up. Makes perfect sense and is probably a really rewarding feeling getting something like that built. |
