What will you be doing with this PC? Be as specific as possible, and include specific games or programs you will be using.

Primarily gaming from all gens, from emulating old ps1 games through to modern releases PC and RPCS3.
Specifically looking forward to Dragons Dogma 2 coming out at some point (using RE engine so I've been roughly looking at RE4 as a guide there with some wiggle room for DD2 being open world), but also Elden Ring which I can't run on my current rig, and Forgotten City which I barely meet the requirements for. As well as heavily modded minecraft with shaders.
I'm aiming for 1440p 60fps, as I mostly game on a TV in the same room connected via HDMI. The TV is 4k capable, but I don't really have the budget to make that my primary goal and I'm happy with 1440p. I also don't mind dropping back down to 1080p if things get too intensive, I'm really not fussy.
Side uses would be photoshop, though not heavily, and I would like to get back into 3d modelling though I don't really touch the rendering side of things so I'm not too worried about AMD/Nvidia differences there. Minor use of Stable Diffusion is the last point which I know AMD suffers on with windows, but I could install linux if I really wanted or just run the limited install of it. It's still going to be better than my current 1060 6gb.
I also don't care about raytracing

What is your maximum budget before rebates/shipping/taxes?

I had originally planned on just getting a new case and moving my parts so some parts I would have needed for that are already brought, as well as peripherals I've already decided on, so while I have a total budget of $3000 AUD, the functional budget left is:
~$2100 AUD for internal parts + monitors

When do you plan on building/buying the PC? Note: beyond a week or two from today means any build you receive will be out of date when you want to buy.

Within the month, but pretty much as soon as I can get it finalized and am comfortable with it all and stop stressing about this or that thing

What, exactly, do you need included in the budget? (ToweOS/monitokeyboard/mouse/etc)

Everything except an OS and perhaps PSU
Mouse/Keyboard/Monitors all have various issues so I'm just going to do a complete refresh at once.

Which country (and state/province) will you be purchasing the parts in? If you're in US, do you have access to a Microcenter location?

Victoria, Australia. Local pickup from Scorptec, PCCaseGear, BPCTech, and CentreCom

If reusing any parts (including monitor(s)/keyboard/mouse/etc), what parts will you be reusing? Brands and models are appreciated.

I do plan on reusing my EVGA SuperNOVA 750 G2 750 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply that I brought in 2016 as it's still within its warranty period of 10 years, unless it's recommended not to.

Will you be overclocking? If yes, are you interested in overclocking right away, or down the line? CPU and/or GPU?

Highly unlikely as I think that would just make me anxious more than anything

Are there any specific features or items you want/need in the build? (ex: SSD, large amount of storage or a RAID setup, CUDA or OpenCL support, etc)

Motherboard - At least 2 M.2 slots that won't throttle the PCI-E lanes of the GPU or other slots if both filled. At least 5 USB-A slots on the back, a USB-C for the case front
Other then that not particularly. I would prefer to stick with intel, sorry AMD, just because it should handle the single core stuff that little better

What type of network connectivity do you need? (Wired and/or WiFi) If WiFi is needed and you would like to find the fastest match for your wireless router, please list any specifics.

Ethernet and Bluetooth 5. I'm sick of dealing with bluetooth dongles

Do you have any specific case preferences (Size like ITX/microATX/mid-towefull-tower, styles, colors, window or not, LED lighting, etc), or a particular color theme preference for the components?

Case already brought, yes I'm one of the many people on the Fractal North train. I have a lot of wood and black furniture already haha.

Do you need a copy of Windows included in the budget? If you do need one included, do you have a preference?

No, going to move my license from my previous build

Extra info or particulars:

As I already have a rough build so along with a general review and cost cutting if possible, these are mostly my main points of concern:

• CPU Cooler - Noctua is expensive and doesn't seem to cool that much more than say a AK620 or Dark Rock Pro 4. But I would like some consideration for noise levels, quieter is better, and I also hear the be quiet mounting systems are painful to use. Or I could drop down to a Noctua U12S if it would be enough given I have no plans of overclocking for now? Really have no idea here and I've looked at so many reviews trying to figure out which is the best temp/noise that my head is spinning (note: The Assassin line of coolers is not available in Aus). And I am quite noise sensitive which is why I went the expensive noctua case fans instead of arctic, didn't want to even take the risk of the whine people report from arctic fans.
  
• Motherboard - Seems like overkill, but it's on a huge sale, looks nice, MSI's problem is the least of the three major ones lately, and unless there's something better and cheaper out there it seems fine? (Avoiding ASUS, and Gigabyte have an alarming amount of refurbished boards on aus sites at the moment)
  
• EVGA PSU being reused from my current build, 7 years old within its 10 year warranty (though I don't know where the invoice for it is), is a problem or would it be better off to just bite the bullet and get a brand new one?
  
• GPU - The one I picked is a 2 fan MSI 6750xt for $619 (asus and gigabyte models of the 6750xt have reports of coil whine, which is why I went this), but I also have the option for a 3 fan Gigabyte 6700xt for $529, and I'm not sure if that's a good trade off for cost/performance as well as quiet operation, as they seem very close in performance but not sure about noise values. Seems like it would be but just doubting myself

After a recent hwfly mod on a brand new oled, if the battery ever gets low overnight/drains to zero, the device will show no life when hooked up to a charger. Nothing comes on the screen, no charging symbol, won't power on, and no LED lights on the modchip. Then if you disconnect and reconnect the battery, it'll charge and boot just fine hekate etc everything works like normal.

Maybe a few drops of rain went into my charge port but since I have a battery case on it It's stupid I can't charge wirelessly

Posting here because I know Motorola mods are reading. And they absolutely should. I really wanted to like this phone. From the moment I first held it, I thought to myself that I would own it for the next few years. Overall I got a great deal when I purchased it so it was a win win. Few months passed and I started to have problems when video chatting. Phone would freeze up and reboot. After I got a hold of Moto Support, a new phone was sent to me free of charge (because the defective phone was under warranty). Their support team was absolutely nothing short of helpful and fantastic. The new phone has worked great. No issues whatsoever. Not even a single reboot. However, there is an issue that, for me at least, is an absolute deal breaker. If you are going to promise at least two years of security updates, you better stay true to that promise. Here we are in June and my Moto Edge + 2022 is stuck on the February update. I've tried, believe me, resetting, using their recovery tool. All for nothing. I can no longer justify Motorola nor will I ever purchase another of their products again. This phone is an absolute beast and I honestly feel bad that it is supported the way it is.
Today I just bought a Samsung.

You come out of the PX hands in pockets, dip in mouth. He sees you. Immediately yells “Ay marine! I know we don’t walk with our hands in pockets!” You turn over and you see him. He’s skinny. Clean cammies. danners so orange they look like he just bought them. Boot blousings so high they go up to his knees. Sleeves so tight he walks like he has pool floaters on. He comes up to you knife handing and screaming “who are we” He sounds like his nose is clogged. You smell potatoes (it must be from how starched his cover is). He then proceededs to word for word recite whatever MCO you just broke. As soon as you try to talk he puts you at parade rest. He then explains how he’s going to talk to your command about your discrepancies. After that he immediately starts to correct your appearance(meanly I might add). He first talks about how faded your boots are. How your blousings are so low he can’t even see them. Then as he slowly looks up he his eyes light up like kid on Christmas(probably from how snowy your cammies look). He’s so happy he can’t help but smirk. He begins to blast you. He starts off by saying “I used to be a shitbag like you” then proceededs to go on a rant about being better. Before he can get to the good part his wife calls him over. You look over and see her get out of his 2020 modded out dodge charger. You can’t believe what your seeing. This women looks like she’s never walked in her life. She reminds you of someone you’ve seen from an episode of my 600 pound life. She immediately starts yelling at him. In a way you even feel bad for him. But then he says something. Something that makes you so mad you don’t even wanna re enlist. He says “call me by my rank”(like he’s fucking Walter white or some shit).
Edit cause I don’t think y’all get it: this is a made up story yall. It was supposed to be a non serious kinda story but I don’t think y’all liked it

I have had my mod true wireless earbuds for a couple months now, but suddenly whenever I watch youtube it plays an annoying sound, which I believe is the one for low battery. After that, the sound quality on yt became extremely muffled, and the volume would go up and down. I thought I just needed to charge them, but when I did that the problem persisted. However, when i listen on spotify, the audio quality is normal? I have tried turning on and off the earbuds, and unpairing them from my device. Any advice?

Hellooooooo. I have finally mained a mouse/mousepad for several months and since I am moving states soon I need to get rid of the mice I'm not using anymore. If you're interested, I've settled on the Tenz Starlight-12 Medium with InfinityHump V2 Pro and Padsmith Temple of Dreams.

I recently received a reskinned HK1 RBOX X4S Called the "retro monster" by "jmachen". the device was meant to be an emulation station, but I broke the SD card used to boot into the software. I dont really mind, but I want to modify the device to unlock it's true potential. a few Issues I need help with are:

1. Installing a custom ROM to the device.

-the pre-installed OS is not what i am looking for, and was also lightly modified by the re-sellers "jmachen" there are lost of issues I have encountered, such as the onscreen keyboard not hiding when a physical keyboard was plugged in, even though I have the setting for it to do so enabled, the GUI being very buggy and often soft locking itself, not allowing a screen lock, and being overall janky. I wish to install either stock Android, or a similar rom (I value the ability to customize my experience, and would use linux if I had the patience for it.)
2) Adding a fan/new heatsink to the device.
-the device runs very hot, and thermal throttles even when at idle. I want to put a better heatsink in the device, but it appears the heatsink is GLUED to the chip. I am unsure if this was done by the original creators of the device, or if it was done by the company who modified it. I got mine for free, but on amazon, it sells for upwards of 200-300 USD. I want this device to run well, and be user-friendly, as well as customizable. when I got it, it was already rooted (came that way from "jmachen"). if anybody has any information about this device, such as guides to modding it, any documentation about the device, or diagrams of the hardware, I would be very happy to see it. hopefully I get this done soon...
for reference, here is the link to the original product, and a link to the one I have:

Basically I got the PC version and love it but I am falling back into a sedentary lifestyle ive worked hard to get out of, and want to play it on VR instead now so im at least up and moving when i play. I have an Oculus quest 2, which I know is not the best but it's all I got for now. What are some fun mods for it that you all like compared to the pc version?
Secondary question: wired or wireless connection to hook up to my computer? Is the faster speed worth the reduced mobility?
