England is moving over to the "European side" in the new year, starting next week.
But they are doing it in EU approved stages - to make it less of a "wrench" for people, and to fit in with Brexit.
Monday is trucks and busses.
Tuesday is vans.
Wednesday is petrol and diesel cars.
Thursday is electric and hybrid cars.
And Friday is bicycles.

Congratulations! I hit the big 16 last February. It seems like just yesterday. Bob was just a lad. The Soapbox was still contentious. And C++ articles still dominated the articles list.

I need some advice as I'm trying to build a new workstation my current one is fading away and got all my data backed up.
I'm just looking for a programmer/productivity machine with no intention of playing games on it as I have game consoles for that.
I am planning to just write code and would like to do some virtualization to be able to test my code in different environments along with database development.
I hope the link below will show the specs I picked out correctly and would like to see if there are any changes that would need to be made that would ensure I can do what I'm hoping for.
Thank you for any assistance and have a wonderful day.

You don’t need a 850w power supply, and you don’t need a video card at all unless you need dual monitor support, and even then you can get one a lot cheaper than the one you selected (personally, I prefer nvidia cards).
Also, you may regret getting a case that has a glass side panel.
Finally compare prices with Newegg. The same cpu on Newegg is $150.

Thank you for pointing out newegg as I will be searching other vendors to save money. I just left the amazon checked when I started playing around on pcpartspicker to put parts together but believe I will be going okay who has the stuff for $5

He does need a video card. Could go cheaper though.
|

I refuse to buy from Newegg anymore, when a cheap drive I got from them was defective and they would only take it back for a replacement, no refund.
|

I've never gotten a defective part from NewEgg.

I agree with JSOP that the video card and power supply are overkill and you could save some money with lower specs. The only other thing I would change would be to eliminate the spinning disk and go with another SSD instead. One more thing...do you really need 32GB of RAM?

We need lots of memory joking I may bring it down and just upgrade if I need more down the road. I'm still trying to figure out a good combination as it's frustrating when you research everything comes up build the ultimate gaming pc like no I don't need all that.
Thanks for the suggestions.

Historically I have built my own workstation, but for my current system, I went against my better judgement and bought one off the shelf. I was really disappointed when I opened it up to swap out the HDD as there are no extra SATA connectors...I can't add another drive without losing the DVD. It actually worked out for the better as my 'data' drive is now portable, hooked up to USB. After adding a 5.1 sound card and a fresh copy of Win10 pro I probably have around $700 in it...considerably cheaper than any past build I've done. It'll do. Also, it's much quieter than anything I've ever put together.

It's another option to consider just not having good luck finding a decent off the shelf computer my google-fu skills are not working well for me at the moment just as I said earlier when you search for pc ideas and such everything coming up for me, myself and I is very nice but not what I need monster gaming systems.
With your and John's suggestions I'm getting the specs lowered that I think it will work well for me along with options to upgrade at a later time if I need more memory or such.
