I'm going to buy an entry level motherboard ...

This is what keeps me from being a pc gamer.

Naming conventions are somewhat consistent; it's the pricing that has gotten a bit out of hand.

Intel used to have decent naming...

Yeah now I start to understand why people go mad over nvidias pricing I mean the 4090 costs like what 1500, 2000 bucks? Meanwhile the 6100 cheaper than the shipping cost y'all're getting ripped off —shitpost

I actually have to build a new computer (edit changed it from previous word used lol) ... The last time I had built mine was in 2013 with an Asus i7which lasted quite a while until the whole Windows 11....non compatibility.....

Now to look at socket type and see if my. Old casing can take it and yada yada ....

I don't want to go the laptop route since I still prefer desktop for gaming than laptops....
