Cass' PC Build

Hi, I'm Cass. As I have my own custom-built PC, I thought that it would be helpful for me to list what I have as a reference for myself and others. I've also linked to websites that sell these certain parts if you would want to buy them (non of the links are sponsored and I don't benefit from you buying anything).

Current Build and Parts

Component	Selection	Buy it	Notes
# CPU	AMD Ryzen 5 3600XT 3.8 GHz 6-Core Processor	Amazon	N/A
# Case	Fractal Design Define Mini C MicroATX Mid Tower Case	Amazon	N/A
# Headset	Sony MDR-ZX310AP Headphones - Black	sony.co.uk	Bought in-store. I'm not an audiophile, plus my ears were blown out when I was 17 by playing Metallica too loud, so this headset sounds fine to me.
# Keyboard	Keychron K10 Pro - Full Sized Mechanical Keyboard	Keychron	Replaced my Kesington ValuKeyboard. Bought in-store when I was in the USA during September 2024 while I was with Noëlle of hornblende.neocities.org and our fellow friend, alph, while we were at Micro Center (very friendly staff (in a good way)). Cost around 110 USD. Also, thank you to a of trwnh.com for teaching me how to change the keys and whatnot. Unlike any past keyboards I have used, this is an EN-US layout. This buy was also when I found out that in the USA, the price tag does not include the tax, so if something says it's (for example) $4, when you buy it, it could be $4.45. This is actually stupid.
# Memory	Corsair Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 Memory	Amazon	N/A
# Microphone	Blue Yeti Nano Premium	Amazon	Stupid simple to use. Just plug in and it works.
# Monitor	AOC C24G1 24.0" 1920 x 1080 144 Hz Curved Monitor	Amazon	N/A
# Motherboard	MSI B450M PRO-M2 MAX Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard	Amazon	N/A
# Mouse	Corsair Harpoon RGB Pro Gaming Mouse	N/A	Was a gift from Cathy (thank you!), so looking up the listing to see the price seems a bit rude.
# Operating System	Arch Linux	archlinux.org	Free
# Power Supply	SeaSonic S12III 550 W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply	Amazon	N/A
# Storage	Samsung 860 Evo 500 GB 2.5" Solid State Drive	Amazon	N/A
# Storage	Seagate Barracuda Compute 2 TB 3.5" 7200 RPM Internal Hard Drive	Amazon	N/A
# Video Card	Sapphire Pulse Radeon RX 7600 8GB Graphics Card	Box.co.uk	Was a replacement for my Gigabyte MINI ITX OC
# Wi-Fi	TP-Link USB WiFi Adapter for Desktop PC	Amazon	It works fine I guess. Sometimes it just does not want to work so I have to opt to tether my phone to it. Kind of annoying if I want to be on the move and, say, AFK in a game or whatever.
# Webcam	LOGIK LWCAMHD23 Full HD Webcam	Currys	Plug 'n' play type deal

Former Build and Parts

Component	Selection	Buy it	Notes
# Mouse	HP 100 Black Wired USB Mouse	N/A	Sadly broke
# Video Card	Sapphire Vapor-x R9 290x Graphics Card	I lost the listing, but it was eBay and was a lot more than it should have been	Was a second hand buy. Died (mirror).
# Keyboard	Kensington ValuKeyboard Black	N/A	Was a gift from Varia (thank you!) after my old keyboard (I don't know the model) broke, so looking up the listing to see the price seems a bit rude. Got replaced when I got the Keychrome K10 Pro in 2024.

Thanks

A big cheers to a of trwnh.com, Cathy, Varia, Robin, and Noëlle of hornblende.neocities.org for helping me find and recommend parts for my original build and getting me off my crappy laptop. Also, thank you to my friend Archie for helping me physically build the PC.

Other Computers

As well as owning the above PC, I am also the owner of a few other computers, mainly laptops. My main laptop that I use is an IMB ThinkPad X40 that I was able to find from eBay for around £20. Originally it ran Windows XP, but as a lot of programs don't run with it, I opted to stick Q4OS on it.
