Our first family computer they offered to double the HDD space to 20mb for an extra $500. "You'll never fill it up!" they claimed. My dad, being a practical guy, couldn't figure out why he would want to pay extra for something he'd never use.
My dad got tired of struggling so he just told me the future proof a build.
He said "Max out everything" So I did.
128gb ddr4 ram, ryzen 5600 4.6ghz 12 core hyperthreaded CPU, nvidia 2080. (He wouldn't let me get the 40x card)
curious why you would pair those specs with a mid-range cpu. wouldn't it have made more sense to go with a ryzen 9 if you were maxing everything out?
