Budget: Whatever's needed
I want to build a laptop that just acts as a samsung dex shell, i.e. just plug my samsung in and dex loads up. Then use the laptop screen, keyboard and trackpad at a minimum. What would I need to make this work?

>what issues?
Do you not see bad user reviews from it with your retailers? Try looking at US ones.
The cooler does not contact the HBM, and does not cool it correctly, which causes artifacts and bugs.
Because you have a fucking 1680x1050 monitor. A 1050 or RX560 is going to run that great.
RX580 is already overkill for 1080p 60fps in almost everything, including games that've come out 2 years after the Polaris' release, at least if you play on high settings instead of maxed which looks the same but just runs worse.
A 1070 on that resolution would be ultra retarded. Donate $200 to charity instead.
>I have no problem spending 600 bucks or so
Then get an RX580 and a new 1080p 144hz monitor like from the build below. That works out to $491.
You can still use your current monitor as a second monitor then. But don't do that with Nvidia because it will stutter if you mixmatch monitor refresh rates even when just web browsing.
>I don't know at what point my CPU (i5 3470) would start bottlenecking
It will bottleneck. That CPU will not reliably get you 60fps minimums while those CPUs will.
It's massively worse than a 3770, and a 3770 is far from sufficient now days either with how resource intensive many things people run in the background have gotten, and with games using a lot more CPU lately.
You'd probably get around 2-4x the 1% minimums or more moving to a 6c/12t CPU in real world usage.

Are you sure your current SSD is good and you don't want an update? Have you run a test on it to see how much write is left on it?
If it's fine, just get rid of the SSD.
You also may want to wait for b450 boards.

embedded board and 3d printing I guess.

>1050 or RX560 is going to run that great
Yes, but for how long? The 1 or 2 PC ports I play a year keep getting more and more unoptimized. I don't care about high grafix settings but I don't wanna have to upgrade again in 3 years just to be able to play 60 FPS at the lowest settings
I'll look into upgrading my CPU as well, thanks

3d printing for what?

The site didn't have exactly what I'm looking for so the price is slightly off

Other than that, is 16gb RAM enough for having a lot of large PSDs files loaded at once? I'm often working between photoshop, illustrator and after effects simultaneously
