Hi all.

Trying to get my first custom pc rig and looking at bolt vs rapid. Can I check anyone using the above 2 models? Which is better?

Anything particular to look out for?

If you can wait a while, B550 mobo will be out in Q3 2020.

This give u PCIe 4 support for gen4 ssd at lower price point, something only available on the top end x570 mobo.

Imho better to spend more for a better GPU. Something like the rtx 2060.

i know nuts about computer especially fixing and troubleshooting. so i would go for aftershock or dreamcore for after sales support. will you be playing games on your computer?
