If you want help:
>State the budget for your build (and country if not the USA).
>List games/software you use often, as well as your monitor resolution + refresh rate.
>Clarify your goal for build improvements: lower price or improved specs?
CPUs:
>G4560 - Budget builds (<$500)
>R5 1400 - if you can't afford better or specifically need 8 threads but not a very powerful CPU
>R5 1500x - All you really need for 60fps with power to spare; Don’t get an i5.
>R5 1600 - Best value for higher fps gaming / mixed usage; Get a 1600x if you don't OC
>R7/Xeon/Threadripper - Compute/Multitask/mixed use; Not required for just gaming.
GPUs:
>Integrated CPU Graphics - Desktop stuff and very light games
>RX 560 and GTX 1050Ti - Lower end budget cards, drop settings on newer games
>RX570 - 1080p@60hz at high, running most maxed older games at 144+hz.
>RX580 and GTX1060 6GB - 1080p@60hz maxed, 1440p@60hz at lower settings; Go for the RX580 if you can.
>GTX 1070 - 1080p@144hz /1440p@60hz at high
>GTX 1080 - 1080p@144hz / 1440p@60hz maxed, 4k@60hz in a few games; Probably the highest end card you need for 1080p/1440p.
>GTX 1080 Ti - 1440p@144 hz and 4k@60hz maxed/high in many games; You're kind of going overboard with this one.
>AMD GPUs are suffering a lack of stock and Nvidia a rise in price thanks to e-currency miners

General:

>NVMe SSDs aren't for a faster OS boot, they're for productivity/scratch disk/VMs. NVMe and M.2 are not the same thing, M.2 is a form factor.
>The Ryzen lineup comes with exceptionally good stock coolers. (with the exception of the 1600X) consider using them over any sub 35USD cooler.

What does /g/ think about the Nim programming language™?
How does it compare to D, Rust, Crystal, Terra, and Go?

>>61083347
Nim has really excellent syntax, and the metaprogramming stuff seems incredibly useful if you actually learn any of it.
I preordered the first Nim book getting published by dom and plan on trying to develop something in the future with Nim as a backbone, but presently I've only done small exercises with it.
The big issue presently is the general lack of libraries, but you can wrap C stuff for use with Nim so it isn't so bad.
>>
>>61083347
>Nim vs D
Nim hasn't reached v1 yet and D is really mature, in fact D is the most mature and stable languages off all you mentioned.
Syntax:
I prefer D's syntax more because it is not whitespace sensitive. This allows you to declare really complex functions in a nice and readable format. Nim follows python's syntax. It may look like Nim's is more "productive" but in the long run you may want to have your functions enclosed by brackets.
Nim's lambda function signatures don't make any sense.
Libraries:
D is compatible to C and even C++ (bidirectional). D is more rich because it's more mature. For example Nim's sequtils is far less rich than D's range and iterator
IDE:
Both languages have decent IDE features but Nim does not have a format tool. It doesn't probably have a stable linter yet
Performance:
Even though Nim compiles to C, it has GC overhead. Nim has an immature GC and it's not threadsafe. D's GC is not smart but it has had tons of tweaks. D compiles to LLVM directly with LDC. Recently D got into the official GCC, so I think D is the winner here. In my microbenchmarks D almost always was faster than Nim, by a very short margin.
Others:
D and Nim aren't quite the same. D is a beast that was created by compiler engineers like Walter bright (wrote the first C++ compiler) and Andrei Alexendrecu (Wrote the famous "Modern C++ design" and considered as one of the best template wizards in existence). Both are veteran C++ programmers and a language created by them is practical, cohesive and robust. D is way too much feature rich in comparison to Nim, but Nim is pretty comfy. D is scrip-table, it doesn't force any programming paradigm and doesn't take away user freedom. It's fair to compare D to Rust and C++ more than Nim because Nim isn't quite "born" yet.
In all honesty I'd like Nim to replace Python almost everywhere.
>>
>Nim vs Rust
Rust wins in every single aspect apart from the syntax. Rust's syntax is horrible, and it has a very steep learning curve. Rust makes C++ look like child's play and it's actually shaping up to replace C++ in the next decade (sorry, C++ fanboys of /g/)
Rust's borrow checker and lifetime oriented programming is so unique (actually it's not, Cyclone taught Rust all these) and effective (No need of GC AND no need of manual memory management), C++ and Swift recently stole a portion of these concepts.
Rust's biggest downfall is it's lack of productivity in comparison to Nim.
