Yeah, I planned on upgrading that later, I just don't have one at all right now. My current computer situation is a 2009 MacBook running Debian, with XFCE because any other DE would crash the poor thing, with it's whopping 4GBs of RAM.

Great advice on the mobo, I've got that and a WiFi card for less than the one I had previously! I don't feel like I know enough about the GPU market to buy used, but if the integrated one is good enough for gaming, then that would be huge. The big game I wanna play is BG3, do you think it would work for that purpose?

Just for future-proofing, I'm gonna stick with the AM5 platform. The advice about getting one with a stock cooler is a fantastic idea, unfortunately I couldn't find an AMD any cheaper on pcpartpicker, plus the cooler isn't too expensive. As far as the storage goes, I just kinda guessed that HDDs were on the way out, and I wanted 2TB in case I got any large games and/or flatpaks with redundant libraries, but I can step that down (so far the only flatpak I have is Space Cadet Pinball lol). So, awesome, good advice!

I tried this for DS9, found it was a lot easier to stream them online, that way you can extract the frames you need via the slider bar.

So it was your fault!

Very credible

They're coarse and irritating, and they get everywhere!

I prefer the old "duck on a scale" method.

Looks like NCD is literally leaking
