Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Or buying a GPU that is too long for the case, or a power supply that doesn't have the outputs you need, or any of the rest of it.
90% of PC building are the choices you make before anything even goes in your cart.
Especially true if you don't just care about compatibility but are doing research to get the best performance and value for your money.
Once the boxes arrive it's just Lego :)
My friend bought a GPU that he had to mount externally bcausr he didn't check case compatibility. So yah you are right some people make their mind up on choices before research and end up with incompatibility.
Another person ordered nvme and confused why it doesn't work in m2 sata slot. I had to explain m2 is the form factor not the protocol...and their response is its the same connection it should work. Smh.
