That's interesting.Decided to take the plunge. UM690 Ryzen 9 6900hx with a Radeon 680M graphics card. Basically they use laptop parts for these, which is fine. Waiting for it to be shipped out. Will report if it sucks or not.
Perhaps you should not go with an almost decade old processor
Pull the trigger ASAP. DDR3 and sound cards are hard to come by these days.
7700X is better in gaming in some scenarios and a lot cheaper, also x3d chip should hit 1st quarter.
I would not bother with a sound card, on board sound is pretty good these days. You also probably don't need to spend that much on a motherboard, you can spend half that and the difference is generally like some ports. I'd probably consider a 1000w power supply but I don't know that you need it, I'm not sure what kind of power the 7900 xtx is actually drawing.
I second these comments.
So, it came while I was asleep yesterday. Fucking DHL driver signed for me for delivery, but no one stole it so no harm no foul I suppose. 32GB RAM and 1TB SSD. About to plug it in and start getting set up.Decided to take the plunge. UM690 Ryzen 9 6900hx with a Radeon 680M graphics card. Basically they use laptop parts for these, which is fine.

So, painless to install. Just plug and play. Ended up learning about syncing firefox, so that was decent as well. Now I need to thoroughly comb through all my apps and shit on my old computer and start cleaning it up to donate to a local school.
