NEW DEVELOPMENT COMPUTER FUNDRAISER
As the title suggests, it is time to buy a new computer. The one I currently have simply is not productive anymore. It doesn't even have USB3
It's an old HP Z800, which was a great workhorse in its day, but these days it is becoming less and less productive as time goes on.
For the new PC, I have deliberately chosen parts that will take me from cruising speed to light speed in terms of compiling code, accessing files, building and testing VM's and multi-tasking, compiling kernels, to mention the main requirements.
Here is what I have picked out, with prices:
171.35 - Cooler Master TD500 Mid Tower Case
343.85 - Asus ROG Strix B550-F Motherboard
825.00 - AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 12 Core, 24 Thread up to 4.6Ghz CPU
074.75 - Cooler Master Hyper 212 CPU Fan
277.98 - HyperX Fury 32Gb DDR4-3200 Memory
897.98 - Gigabyte Aorus 1Tb NVMe Gen 4 M.2 PCIe 4.0 SSD x 2 Read 5000 MB/s Write 4400 MB/s
234.99 - Cooler Master V 750W 80Plus Modular PSU
019.81 - Arctic Silver Thermal Paste
-------------------------------------------
2845.71 - Total NZD or 1896.18 USD
-------------------------------------------
I already have a fairly modern nVidia 1650 GPU so there is no need for one here.
The fundraiser will last one month. Donations can be made here - https://www.linuxliteos.com/donate.html in any manner you choose. Please let me know if you are specifically contributing towards this new pc and I will be sure to make mention of you once the new build is complete.
Thank you everyone for your support, it is very much appreciated.
