Glad to see the upgraded version, I hope they'll open ordering in Italy soon!

I'm also noticing that Cloudflare support is going terribly downhill.

I have an issue with the Cloudflare infrastructure on my domain since WEEKS, giving me thousands of 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable errors per day (cloudflare side, not the origin server) and nobody seems to care or able to resolve.

Removing the ability to create support tickets on free plan doesn't help at all, I mean, I get it why they're doing it, but asking on their community forum as an alternative it's not an acceptable solution. Neither going after Cloudflare employees on social media platforms hoping for a reply.

If I'm also going to pay for their services such as Zero Trust, domains registrar and R2, why do I have to switch to a Pro plan just to open a support ticket? Perhaps a middle-ground solution like 1 free support ticket per month on a free plan would be a good compromise?

I still think they're giving an incredible service and value for free, but this sucks.

We are in this situation because people never wanted to pay anything on the web, so we have become the product. That's the price to pay when you want everything for free.

This is why you have to rely on third party services to perform advanced search and filtering. Pangoly and PCPartPicker do that exact job with advanced filtering, eg: https://pangoly.com/en/browse/ram

Clear and simple, with filtering and sorting: https://pangoly.com/en/chart/ssd (also performance included)

Can it run Windows 10 with the 4GB RAM model?

I'm surprised noone mentioned ASP.NET yet. With Visual Studio Code + .NET Core you have a completely free environment/framework that can run web applications on both Linux and Windows in minutes.

Also, the app is published by a dodgy company named "Proxima Beta" based in Singapore.

why don't they just hire 2 persons instead of 1 and split the work? let's put an end to this toxic behavior from companies. working 70+ hours per week doesn't make you a better employee or the world a better place.

Single product pros & cons, ratings, suggested builds for the component. Build guidelines, build performance index and power consumption, realtime best builds. Localized and multi currency. User friendly and beautifully designed, browsable with any device. And much more... As you probably are an expert user you most likely don't care about any of all those features because you already know what do you need and where to find it. As a matter of fact, I'm sure you also don't care that Facebook is localized in 97 languages, but trust me, a few people around the world do. I know missing features like advanced filtering might be frustrating for those who need them right now, but we're working hard trying to please everybody's needs and provide a better service!

Thanks for your constructive feedback. We are still under active development and we are rolling out new features every week. Although analogy with PCPartPicker was inevitable, I'd like to say we're not aiming on being its clone, we're not providing price comparison and they are already doing a great job providing extensive compatibility checks so there's no point wasting time reproducing what is already available. Pangoly provides preconfigured builds with full compatibility checks that may satisfy most of the people needs (having the ability to also remove/add extra components) and it has a lot of useful features that noone else already provides. I agree with you for the "lack of reviews" part, we'll sort that out soon enough. Stay tuned!

How can you suggest builds for the budget if you don't have a real store providing updated components prices? Amazon is by far the most popular online store so I think it's a safe bet using it as a de facto standard.

12 lat temudiscuss

Of course, you mentioned similar websites but I think they have different purposes compared to Pangoly. PCPartPicker offers a huge set of components with different stores so you can find the best price available for almost anything, but it struggle with users having little building experience that are trying to find what's the current best build options for their budget. On the other hand logicalincrements offers a nice viewing experience of components tiers but it lacks building customizations. I think having another option and point of view is not harmful at all :)

yes, more countries and localizations are on their way.

Thanks! I'm the owner, so here's a brief overview of the available features:

    - Build configuration starting from user's preferred budget. The suggested components are always safe to be used in the same build and it's also possible to add optional parts like peripherals.
    - Automatic build creation starting from user's preferred component.
    - Sharing: once the build is completed it's possible to share it on the most popular social networks (Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Reddit), on forums (BBCode) o by Email.
    - Build guidelines: for every component type we provide general guidelines and best practices for the picking, also suggesting the highest rated products currently available on the market.
    - Product reviews: our rating, pros and cons, q&a, price history, suggested PC builds for the selected component and compatibility.
    - Price analysis and trends.
    - Multilanguage and multicurrency.
    - Responsive design: the website provides an optimal viewing experience on all devices (desktops, tablets and smartphones).
