If you have a delivery date to meet, I recommend one month of lead time. Some people show up with "I need this shizzit in two days". Well, no you don't. And I guarantee, you will learn stuff along the way :-) Nobody gets this stuff right, if they're not constantly doing builds. Times change. Etc. I start, by selecting my RAM standard first. A DDR4 motherboard will be a cheaper build than a DDR5 motherboard. Look at which processor company is having trouble, select the other company. If the CPU is 65W, use the cooler in the box. If the CPU is 250W, and the CPU maker says "we recommend water cooling", you should at least believe them that a "challenge" exists. For a high power CPU, they don't come with a cooler, and you'll be shopping for a $100+ solution for it. If you post a list of parts, you can get some feedback on your choices. A commenter might say "this choice is a taste issue", and other items "this choice is a technical issue". Working with your parts list, is more efficient than writing a book on the spot.

A least a month of research before checking boxes at NewEgg. Then there is the cross your fingers moment when you hit the power button. It's fun the first few times.

On their $560 budget build, the CPU is a 12100F quad core for $85.
(The F means there is no GPU inside, and this is generally a bad idea.
It means handcuffs on always needing a video card in the box at all times.)
An alternative would be buying a 12100 instead, with a GPU inside, and turn
that GPU off most of the time. Any time your video card is out for a cleaning,
the internal GPU can be used. I'm running on internal GPU, even though
the junk room has a perfectly good spare video card.
The video card selected for the budget build, is an RX 6600 for $180
(that's slightly below the junk card price range). I'm not sure
any of those cards are available in town (Best Buy stocks $500-$700 cards,
my real computer store chain is run by a kook so you can never
rely on any stock being in the store or their warehouse).
https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/radeon-rx-6600.c3696
132 watts
PCI-Express 4.0 x8 interface (normal is x16 lanes)
That's twice as fast as this (slider table at bottom).
AMD used a laptop GPU, a laptop GPU with no video SIP
for decoding hollywood video formats without CPU input.
The wiring is x4, considered to be as shabby as you can
go without being a bottleneck.
https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/radeon-rx-6400.c3813
53 W maximum
PCI-Express 4.0 x4 (normal is x16 lanes)
This is the graphics in my processor. The RX 6600 is 5.92 times as fast.
The RX 6400 is 2.64 times as fast as the GPU inside my CPU.
A RTX4090 is 23 times as fast as my GPU in the CPU.
My GPU in the CPU is suited to playing The SIMS.
https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/radeon-graphics-512sp.c3768
The megalist here has video card benchmark data.
https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/GPU_mega_page.html
The single thread CPU bench rates how most software will run (software
that only uses one CPU core). The 12400 does not do that badly.
https://www.cpubenchmark.net/singleThread.html
The multi thread bench rates how well something like 7ZIP .7z compression would run.
The 5950X with double the cores, is included for comparison. The one
below it is a DDR5 RAM CPU. The one at the bottom of the list, gulps power.
If you get a 14900K today, flash up the BIOS to get a new microcode.
https://www.cpubenchmark.net/high_end_cpus.html
AMD Ryzen 7 5700G 24,553 $158.99
AMD Ryzen 9 5950X 45,639 $358.78 Double the cores
AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D 62,428 $525.03 Double the cores plus a slab of L3 on the side
Intel Core i9-14900K 60,504 $545.81
The three bottom ones need "coolers", any old thing will
do for the first one (even the in-box cooler is good enough).
I don't like using water in computers, but the kids like it.
I guess the gurgle and the whir, is a thing.
The mains power consumption of my (idle) 5700G right now is 24 watts.
Competitive with my laptop power consumption. And that's with
a single browser page open, and my newsreader. Most of that power
is not the CPU itself.
[Picture]
https://i.postimg.cc/JhVTpFyS/5700-G-at-idle.gif
The CPU is fitted with an NH-C14S, but I wasn't exactly
going to leave the C14S in the junk room when I have one,
so the in-box cooler is sitting in the junk room instead.
The C14S never speeds up on this build (six heatpipes, but
only the one fan). If the C14S is needed for some reason,
I just swap coolers.

I've had that problem. When the video card crapped out I hit the stores in town looking for a generic board to plug in, nothing special. Everything was high end. When I went into BestBuy recently for a USB hub it took a while before a clerk directed me to a dusty shelf way in the back of the store that had a plain old 4 port hub. I understand profit margins and all but they do tend to drive you into Amazon's waiting arms for generic keyboards, mice, peripherals, and what not.

Well, we had a plan, but we drunk all the beer, and now we're passed out on the floor. Oh well, maybe next year. ******* A lot of newer computers, no longer come with an optical drive. Burning an ISO9660 is not a practical option for those. Utilities for "making" USB stick setups, are fraught with problems. Even if you gave the average user instructions, with the state of USB handling, they could hardly be expected to succeed at the task of making the media for the OS in question. USB setups have silly requirements like "present a stick with a partition on it", then the USB tool "formats" the stick and removes the partition in question. The process then, is "logical and makes so much sense". If you wanted to provide an easy path for a Win-to-Linux transition, use a stub.exe to pull down the OS and put it on the disk. That's how Microsoft does it. And even they don't do a good job (can't run their MediaCreationTool.exe on WinXP). On older machines, we can be using our Nvidia binary blobs, and the years-of-support are limited. My 7900GT (suitable for Optiplex 780 refurb with Core2 Duo processor), Linux media now, the screen freezes with graphical noise on it, and I can't flip to terminal and do anything (function keys). A copy of Windows runs that screen fine. How is it that a Windows can run a screen when a Linux can't ? There used to be a time, when Linux was proud to outdo Windows on the length of support for old hardware, but no more. Linux has succumbed to the same hardware snobbery as every other ecosystem. Puppy is the only shining example. It uses XVesa for X11 and that "drives just about anything". Yet, no other distro seems to be able to take a page from the Puppy play book. Puppy is so good, it even runs on hardware, where there is hardly any alignment between drivers and hardware at all! Which is most impressive. Puppy is able to modprobe older hardware, and do a good job on drivers, but for newer hardware, not many things have drivers, and yet it still works. ******* But I'm still on the floor right now, I'm drunk and passed out. Later. The current plan, is for Power Users to embrace Linux, which would be... oh... about 3% of the desktop population. Google has prepared media, to use their ChromeOS intellectual properly and install it on Windows hardware. They're a bit prepared. They've been sipping their beer, and haven't passed out. https://support.google.com/chromeosflex/answer/11552529?hl=en Paul

Nobody in the C Suite, considers desktops to be worth chasing. We'll do every thing with Cellphones. Need to compress 4TB of files ? Your cellphone will do it. Need to run engineering software ? Your cellphone will do it. Since WSA was canceled, and WSL is still running (for now), it was an "experiment to measure something". For Android, there was no attachment. Initially WSL had no graphics, and the "cover story" was that it was for "Azure users preparing images or something". I used to run a separate X11 server back when there was no WSLg. Now there is a WSLg. My most frequently run GUI application in WSLg, is Linux Firefox. So I can manage more than one version of Firefox, for various purposes. Presumably, my activities are being measured (because there is a custom icon for Linux activity on TaskBar). Microsoft initially had an "ecosystem play" with Windows 10. It was supposed to "organize all your devices", like your <cough> Windows Phone. Since that didn't seem to have the desired attach rate (and consequent buy-into the Cloud), they have sought to build an ecosystem out of "whatever shit sticks to". Take an item, build interconnect to it, see what sticks. That to some extent, is what the experiments are about. The reason Microsoft put ten billion into AI, is they have visions of sugarplums, by renting tokens for a Cloud AI. And you can run up a monthly billing, by having someone read Dad Jokes to you. "That's where the real money is." It's in the same category as Full Self Driving and Nuclear Fusion Power. They're not building an OS, they're constructing Rental Accommodation. They would be equally happy with 3 people paying $10000 a month, as they would having 10000 people paying $3 per month. Success isn't measured in head count, it is measured in dollars. They don't mind if a few customers fall off the back of the cart. And they usually make money, off every OEM PC sold. It does not matter what the people do with the OEM PC when they get it. Paul

The M$ lawyers will make SURE we can't all get along ... SO ... just sayin' ... time to get working on the Linux replacement FAST - something the lawyers won't have a handle on. Linus isn't so young anymore, when he goes Linux will go to hell and then be GONE. Hmmm ... a "based on" or something completely new ?

They tried that already, and failed. Threw everything (legal, economic, marketing FUD) at it, and Linux survived. And now, Microsoft is tying its own destiny more and more to the well- being of Linux. So it can no longer afford to be predatory as before, anyway.

Its getting to the stage where emulating all or part of Windows on linux would actually be quicker than running it native.

Ah, good old FORTRAN ... haven't writ anything substantial in that ... maybe 30 years now. However it IS good and CAN do great stuff. IMHO it's more readable than COBOL even though COBOL always sold itself on being more readable. Write a few needed string functions and ...... Before I retired I *did* write a useful little utility they'd want - in FORTRAN - just to afflict the New Guys who didn't seem capable of even six lines of Python :-) Assembler CAN be faster, but you have to write good tight assembler. Some micro-controller experience helps with that. When RAM/storage is oft measured in BYTES you've gotta do clever work.
