Final list for new build
- Thread starter neil_1821
- Start date
I'm not the OP but I've just bought the same SSD for my modest mid-tier build.
What are the drawbacks of QLC drives for day to day use?
Experience of QLC drives - Be aware
I've started to swap out my Crucial P3 drives as the performance when you have filled them a little is very bad. The more storage that is used on them thhe more this will diminish the write speeds. I don't know the exact numbers but when copying big files you will constantly hit bottlenecks...

tl;dr
1) performance drops off a cliff for large-file writes or as the drive gets full due to the pseudo-SLC cache running out of space, sustained transfers are no faster than a hdd once the cache is depleted
2) poorer longevity, especially when using it as a main drive with a swap file (but probably not noticeable for most users)
Thanks. I might be sending it back then (it's not been opened/used yet)Experience of QLC drives - Be aware

That's not allowedlets see your final list so we can make fun of it?

All I need to find now is a GPU support bracket but struggling to find the Antec one so if there are any other suggestions, I've never really liked the weight GPU's put on motherboards, I always get the horrible feeling it'll snap
@neil_1821 that's not too bad a list
did you not want to go for a white case/aio?
the black-in-white build doesn't look half-bad
i only went with a black aio because i couldn't get slim 140mm fans in white lol
(yes, the plastic is still on the glass, no, i don't intend to remove it)

That’s nice but nah, I’m not a white case person, I like black, suits my desk and room.@neil_1821 that's not too bad a list

Ah I’ll see what comes with the GPU then, for the price it should come with a support!
