[MEGATHREAD] Personal Computer - Updated builds thanks to Logical Increments

i said that it cancels out people who want to use AMD processing units, there's no matter of checking the 'best compatible parts' when you aren't even supposed or able to run OS X on an AMD chip

Name 1 Apple product that runs on said "AMD chip"

What you're saying makes no sense.

Ok, I'm good then. I'm trying to OC it a little, and the highest I've seen it is 73 during some testing.

Easy upgrade for any system is always an SSD or a better GPU. Most of the parts you have there are fair game though I would say. Good job :)

Any GPU recommendations?

NVidia GTX series.

NVidia GTX series.

Such a great suggestion, only about 30+ cards to choose from.

My AMD Phenom II x6 CPU is averaging 60-85 Degrees Celsius while using Chrome alone. I haven't checked how high it's going on games, but it's probably something ridiculous.
What should I do? Reapply the Thermal Paste or something?
All the other components in my computer are working at a fine temperature, so it's definitely just the CPU.

EDIT: Just tried to turn on my computer after a blue screen, and I keep getting this CPU overheating temperature error. It then freezes on the Starting Windows screen and shuts down. This is really scary.

My laptop heats REALLY bad when running Blockland

Thanks, but I think I might just go with the build I got (removing the sound card tho). I need a fast option (pretty sure my laptops gpu is going to give out any one of these days) and I can buy this build right now.

See if you can just upgrade the GPU to the next step with that extra money. You might be able to

The GPU I listed will help you in the long run and it's similar to the price of the one you listed. (I only checked amazon price)

Damnit I just realized the reason that was so cheap was because the video card isn't available, well still got saving to do I suppose, hopefully my laptops GPU survives long enough.

Edit: I found a cheaper build, how decent is this and is this better?
