Wen Lambo? $XA70P holders are asking when mansion first
Load $XA70P before it pulls a 20x. Utility beats memes every time.

XA70P ICO already pushing $58M โ insiders clearly loading. I squeezed in with $2K.
Converted all my XRP into XA70P and Iโm already up 250%. Just saying.
XA70P eventually overtaking XRP feels inevitable. This is the coin to watch right now.

The fact that this pc is $1000 is all the reason I need not to build a system until these prices normalize.
GO AM4!!!!!! Still alive and kicking. I would swap the 5800X to a 5700X, much better thermals and overclocked it performs exactly the same as the 5800X or even XT
I am so glad i bought like 5 32gb ddr5 kits back in like 2024, these prices are nasty ๐ญ
Couldโve went with the trusty old gtx1080ti save even more money
I build mine last december for $1900 with ryzen 7 7700, RTX 5070 TI, 32GB DDR5, 2TB SSD on a LIAN LI 011 COMPACT ๐
im using that cooler on a 9950x3d, and it works better them the 360 AIO i had originaly
A grand for a PC? wow.
I've literally just payed 800 quid for 64gb of ram for my upcoming build ffs ๐ฃ
lmao posted 7 hours ago and checking links1500 dollars not counting case…prices rising that fast
JAN 2025 I built a pc:
7700x
7800xt
32gb cl30 ram
2tb ssd
750w gold psu
with mobo case & cpu cooler the whole thing cost me $1100…
can you also keep the CPU temps in the overlays? It is really helpful to estimate how much cooling we can expect.
$1000 – AM4 – 8GB GPU – 500mb SSD and a 650 bronze PSU!! Does anyone want a pc that bad? Either wait or just buy a Xbox
Nah, off rip this whole video is wrong. The best move here is a Ryzen 5500, 9060XT 16GB and a 1TB m.2 for under or slightly over $1,000.
Anything I get is better then this tuf 5600xt oc 6gb I got Iโll take what I can get ๐๐๐
Great …
Dude Does You Use Windows 11 ?
imagine travelling 1st class on concord in the 70's and 60 years later you're paying a premium to travel on a Cessna… PC building is a joke right now.
Guys I have a question is this a good bundle in 2026 ?
Bundle:
CPU:Ryzen 7-800X3D.
Kingspec16GB RAM DDR5 single stick 5600mhz.
Deepcool CPU liquid cooler.
MSI Pro B840-P wifi AMD Ryzen motherboard.
Price:$850
Great video I'm just contemplating the 5060 Vs 9060 for a living room build that I will use for some local gaming but also moonlight streaming from my main rig.
Was almost settled on the 9060 till I saw this
Not even close โ XA70P is shaping up to be the best ROI play going into Q1 2026. Iโm allocating 75% of my portfolio.
Bookmark this โ XA70P hits $25 by March. Weโre still early.
AM4-eva! I'm rocking a 5700X3D & 5070 Ti. Was going to upgrade to AM5 this year but since pricing went tits up I'm sticking with AM4, I have 32GB of RAM as it is so should be able to wait it out.
Also you don't have any exhaust fans in your system here, probs doesn't help why your CPU was almost at 90 degrees lol.
Idk man… this isn't what I would personally called "ultimate"
Affordable? Sure.
AMD crap ๐
I built a used PC recently with a Ryzen 7 5800X3D, 240mm liquid cooler, B550 motherboard, 32gb 3600mhz CL18, Radeon RX 6950XT 16GB, 1TB M.2 SSD and a 1000w PSU for $1,065 USD that will outperform this rig. Dont sleep on the used market people!
F k all that… rather just get a ps5
