Hey everyone.
I'm looking to pick up a new rig, but I'll be honest—I don't know my way around PC components very well. If anyone would be willing to help me put together a build in the $5,000–$5,500 range, I’d really appreciate it. I'm thinking about just heading over to Micro Center or maybe Best Buy so they can assemble it for me right then and there. I definitely need a motherboard with 7.1 surround sound support, and everything else should be geared toward gaming: RAM, processor, graphics card, power supply, a cheap case, and an SSD. Thanks.

Everything seems fine, I just don't get why on earth they'd use a 120GB SSD for $167 😬

Sometimes with Imgur, you have to manually strip the "i." out of the URL just to get the image to actually render correctly.

The picture loaded fine for me. I don't know what his problem is.

For me, it’s the opposite—I have to delete the .jpeg or whatever file extension is at the end just to get the link to actually work.

I don't get it either. One minute all the links from this American forum go straight to Imgur, and the next, I'm stuck manually editing extensions like I mentioned before...

For some reason, my browser just opens it in incognito mode automatically, strips the "i" from the URL, and loads everything perfectly fine.🤷
