Hahahaha Yeah. Sony did good last year. The last of us is the ONLY reason I bought a PS3.

No, but it was announced last year if I remember correctly, since E3 isn't until next month.

I am out of the vidya loop lately sadly though. A lot of the eSports thing. CSGO mostly.

Oh, that place. I showed up 51% of the time, just enough so I didn't get expelled. Passed pretty damn well too. School is poorly structured. I'm glad I am done.

Well, here's a forum I never expected to find on an mtb site, but you guys might be able to help me out. Sorry if this is the wrong forum, but it seemed applicable...

I want to build a computer for producing music. Basically I want it to run ableton 10 and plug into a midi controller (usb, so easy). Thats all I need it to do. I am not interested in overclocking it, nor am I gonna play games on it. Sadly as soon as I mention these two things all my techy friends get bored and wonder off to find the latest video of someone pouring liquid nitrogen on a GPU and turning all its settings up to 9billion. I'm sure thats cool and all that, but it's not what I'm looking to do.

Let me be clear. I know f*ck all about computers. I've been in the bike industry for well over a decade so have bike knowledge coming out of my ears, and its kinda alien to me looking into the compatibility issues and wild acronyms of another enthusiast hobby and not having a clue what I'm looking at. I feel like a total squid. Or whatever you guys call them. Anyway, I'll get to the point:

I have educated myself the tiniest amount, and figure I want an AMD Ryzen 5 3600, and 16gb of 3000ghz (ish) ram (probably Corsair, but whatever). But on motherboards I'm f*cking stumped. At first I thought I wanted an x570, but I'm beginning to realize this is massive overkill. Like I say I'm not interested in overclocking, and short of a reasonable soundcard and basic graphics I don't need the latest and greatest pciE. So maybe an x 470 would do me? Or a B450? But then I'd need different RAM or some shit? I've been staring at spec sheets for hours and my brain has melted. Please help.

I'm looking to spend about £300-£350 on CPU/MB/RAM, which means the MB should be somewhere in the £130ish range. Unless I've got it all wrong.
