New PC has been built!

Yeah. Definitely beats the ol' Core i5-2400.

NAME: "Workhorse"
FINAL SPECS:

• AMD Ryzen 5 2600 @ stock speeds
• 16 GB DDR4-3000 running at 2400MHz (The system crashes during stress testing if I try any higher)
• MSI B450M PRO-M2 motherboard
• Nvidia Geforce GTX 1050ti
• 512GB Intel 660p SSD as boot + high usage applications drive
• Old PC's hard drive + internal storage/scratchpad drive (both mechanical) combined 1.25 TB
• The same dang keyboard and speakers that I've had since I played CD-ROM games on Windows 95 because I like both and will not use anything else most likely.
• Realtek HD Audio (The motherboard doesn't have a PCI slot for my old Sound Blaster and now I'm sad because an adapter is another $30.)

Also, most of that went right over my head

Same. Happy for you, Techie, but I have no clue what you're talking about.

When you talk tech to me, it's like performing Mozart to a tree frog. It has no way of comprehending or appreciating what you are doing.
