I have all the basic components ready for a new pc build except for the CPU.
I can get by easily with a Ryzen 3, but that processor would not be much better than my old Intel. But it would allow me to finish my build faster, and be up and running with Fedora on my new NVMe M.2 drive. Where I live, ordering online at Walmart is about $ 10 cheaper than other services. I will be using this computer for basic household task while at the same time reporting my experiences with Fedora and likely just the Rawhide isos. I hope to install several Rawhide isos on my new NVMe in the coming months, and probably other distros too. I have no reason to hurry with this build other than being anxious to report how it works with various Linux distros and especially Fedora. I assume it would be silly to waste money on a $ 300 cpu. Right ? But if I can restrain myself, and take a deep breath, then I should be able to place an order the new Ryzen 5 3600XT in about a month. Those are currently $ 250 plus tax U.S.A. dollars. I can not really justify doing that today. Today, I could order the Ryzen 3 for $ 75, and start my build next week. Does anybody really care how the Ryzen 3 now performs in 2020 on Fedora ( on a desktop pc ) ?? I imagine that would now only be relevant on a laptop. David Locklear
