New PC Build - Questions/Advice

Hitmonkey, would it be bad to add a 2nd M.2 NVMe drive? Will the 2nd slow the first?

[Bardalicious]

As for the motherboard, I'm fairly content with the one I got. I don't doubt what you say about when they first came out, but I've seen nothing but pretty positive reviews on the one I have, other than the msi m.2 heat shields having a negative effect rather than helping.

I could probably still send the Samsung 960 evo back, but I'd prefer not to if adding a 2nd is a reasonable option. I'm blown away by the speed on these things. With msi fast boot enabled, from hitting the power button to Windows login screen takes about 2.5-3 seconds.

Sage, I play a large variety of different games. Mostly single player lately, like RE7, Dark Souls 3 and Witcher 3. But I also mix in some Agnarr EQ Live, the occasional fps, and older stuff like fallout 3/nv and skyrim.

I currently play on 1080 reso, but I'd like to be able to make the jump to 4k. I also keep telling myself that I'd like to check out VR, but until the technology starts reaching more mainstream gaming titles I'll probably hold off.

-adding another M.2 wouldn't be a problem since it runs on PCIe 4 (? i forget if it takes 4 or 2 PCIe channels) and unless your running SLI which is completely obsolete with today's hardware you shouldn't have a problem. Just read your MB manual because with a M.2 in its current slot it knocks down one of your PCIe slots to a lesser speed/off

-4k Don't let the latest 4k hype machine (fucking looking at you AMD) blur what you need for 4k gameplay when it comes to your GPU since it depends on both your CPU and GPU, I highly suggest checking out DigitalFoundry on youtube. Great, no words just a split screen showing mulitple video cards playing the same game on different settings so you can see yourself the effect of cards running 4k. You will be surprised at the results.

"important system software like malwarebytes and kaspersky" - lol you just need a fresh install and Sandboxie. Its free, doesnt allow anything to install/infect/fuckup on your system and doesnt take any PC resources. Great for porn and torrents since I can watch anything I download within the sandbox and it cant escape to my system.

It's a Hard Job Being a Daddy Dom.

It's a job that it's not cut out for many.

Here are some of the things you will have to learn to do or how to deal with:

Learning to speak in the third person (i.e. Daddy wants you to cum for him)
Glitter is NOT your enemy. No, really it is not, you will see it so much and everywhere you will come to love it yourself....Eventually.
Your legs will fall asleep quite often, from having a "grown up child" on your lap... A lot, but really you'll get used to it.... Eventually.
Enforcing rules requires patience, lots and lots of patience, you will often feel like you are in the military.
Speaking of rules, know that your Little is very skillful and resourceful when it comes to rules negotiations, etc.
Watching cartoons will often be replace by your favorite sport on TV...But you'll get use to it....Eventually.
You must always have some sort of sweets/candy on hand AT ALL TIMES.
You must always have an endless supply of stickers.
You will hear all the excuses on planet Earth about not being able to do chores, in some cases even tasks assigned.
There really is no limit on how many stuffies a Little can have, and when in doubt, buy them another stuffie.
Mood swings are a thing, yes they happen quite often, nope, nothing you can do about them.
Building a blanket forte "perfectly" or to your Little's "instructions" will be more difficult then putting together a baby crib or cabinet, the difference is, one comes with real instructions.
Did I mention glitter will become your best friend yet? Specially when you see it all over the place, yes that means even your toys...But, you will get used to it....Eventually.
Learning how to sleep on your side or on 1/3 of the bed and with stuffies all around and in between you will be difficult and quite challenging.
Learning the names of all your Little's stuffies, and I mean ALL of them. Mixing or forgetting their name is a huge offense and you will have a very pouty Little when this happens. They have too many, you say? I wish you good luck my friend, good luck!
Being a Daddy Dom It's s a hard job but the rewards you get are:

Being someone's entire Universe
Being a Super Hero on someone's eyes
All the cuddles and kisses
Someone who is willing to please and serve you in everyway
Someone who melts with just a pat on their head
You're very own personal fuck toy
Being entrusted with someone else's love and heart

PS: This mostly apply to ME and the kind of Little I am, as all Littles are different.

Please feel free to add your own!

Awesome.

I made this same suggestion in unbrella's PC building thread, but if you can find a decently priced Antec P280 case you should definitely grab one. Far and away the best case I've ever found. Built in dust filters, plenty of room (2 SSD bays + 5 or 6 regular HDD bays), and it doesn't look like something you'd find in a 14 year old gamer's bedroom.

Aside from that, unless you plan to run an SLI set up I doubt you need a 1000w power supply. People tend to overestimate how large a PSU they need. Definitely add up the power draw for the parts you decide on yourself to be sure, but might be able to save a few bucks there. I only have a 700w supply for my OC'd 2500k 970gtx set up, which is obviously less power than your set up at face value, but with the OC and hard drives (2 ssd, 8 mechanical) it probably isnt that far off.

Also, would definitely echo the need for a bigger SSD. I had a 250gb SSD only for my OS and games, but ended up buying a second because games are huge these days. My GTA V folder is 70gb alone. Thats one game taking up over 25% of the SSD. The great thing about hard drives is you can upgrade over time. Get the small NVME drive for your OS and games/programs that you use a lot, then later get a second, maybe cheaper SATA ssd, to store all your other games/programs.

Sounds more like a semi-literate Japan.
