Thank you very much! I'll save as much money as possible and acquire all of these parts. I truly appreciate you helping me out here, and I hope to talk to you again!

I'll be sure to wait for the 7900GRE to come back in stock!

I would definitely appreciate if you did some price hunting on Bestbuy. I'm trying to find the best parts and for the best price and performance for my Gaming PC. I'll definitely look around for a 280mm or 360mm x3d chip

I appreciate you finding cheaper versions of items such as the power supply and graphics card, but the major point is that I am not trying to purchase anything from Amazon, HP, or NVIDIA because I am following a boycott list. I am only buying parts from Bestbuy, and several of the brands you mentioned in your PC listing were either not available or out of stock. However, I was able to find cheaper items such as the CPU cooler, and I was surprised that the 7900 was the same price as the 7600.

Here's my updated version https://pcpartpicker.com/user/Crafted_104/saved/XcZCrH

Yeah I think Curved Monitors would be a great choice for me rather than flat

I've been looking everywhere for a mouse that was of excellent quality and actually worked, but a lot of them were quite bad. I don't like "gaming mouses" and have never been impressed with the quality of Logitech and Razer's other mouses. The only Logitech that was genuinely nice was the ergonomic one. I've tested it before, and it feels much more pleasant to use. I will still keep looking around but for now, that's the only mouse I plan on getting.

The major reason I chose the 5900X in the first place was since a friend recommended it to me; it was actually not bad for the price, and I expected it to be extremely strong, but it turned out to be too much, so I decided not to get it. I've been looking at the Ryzen 7 5800X3d, but the price went over my budget. So for now, I might plan on getting the 5700X3D.

I was considering getting 16 GB of RAM, but I thought it was best for me to get more, 16 gigabytes of RAM is fine, but I want to reach the full potential of gaming. I didn't want 64GB of RAM; it would have been far too much. So I'm sticking with 32. This is also why I chose a 2TB SSD over 1TB, or anything lower.

Thank you! I'll change it to a 5800X3D, the reason why I chose the 5900X is because a friend recommended me to buy it.

I ended up changing to a 650w, i'll probably change it again to a 750w depending on the price

I live in the US

It works fantastic

I had a lot of parts that were incompatible with other parts I plan on getting

I changed it to a AM4 lmao

You can check the updated images

I'm currently doing that right now, everything will be updated on this post once I choose all the parts

I'll be getting this, thanks for reminding me!

I didn't make "Ente", I was saying that's it's a better alternative to Google Photos and Ente doesn't mine your data at all. You can literally check it's source code and privacy policy.

1. Signal's Desktop app works perfectly fine and it works amazingly on IOS and Android
2. You aren't supposed to because everything is end-to-end encrypted and with disappearing messages, which is partially the whole point of Signal. That's where you get far more privacy than with Telegram.
3. It's very unfortunate that you can't install Signal from F-Droid, however you can install it by using their APK and limiting all of it's permissions.

Startpage gets it's search results from Google

SearX gets it's search results from any search engine you choose

How is this a valid point?

Fedora isn't a beginner distribution

Signal is very user friendly, I would even say better than Telegram. What are you on about?

If you use XFCE, you probably can

I disagree that Matrix is the best option; it's not very user-friendly compared to Signal. Signal has some little issues, but it's still far superior to Telegram and even Matrix. Matrix is simply not ready yet; if you're set to use it, by all means do so, but I still recommend Signal for being the best alternative to Telegram and Whats app. Matrix isn't really for communities, its more for corporations/software development teams who want a self hosted slack

Whatsapp is a whole different discussion for later

Telegram requires a phone number as well. If that is a problem, use a burner phone. Additionally, Signal introduced the ability to use a username instead of your phone number. Yes, you need to put up a phone number to make a Signal account, but once your account is created. You can actually activate "Hide your phone number" and utilize the username feature
