When I was your age we had to build the processor with hammers and nails, kids these days all using prefabs, makes me sick.
Hand blown vacuum tubes, a power supply rated in PSI...
I remember making silicone wafers and then resisting the urge to eat them.
I remember when the parts took up the whole space in the case. Now I see people with aquarium sized cases, but the computer is just this tiny little square in the corner taking up 1/1000th of the space in the case.
When i was young and build my first pc's i would always use just whatever cases i got from my friend who worked in IT. It was mainly these beighe/white hige ass server towers. So seeing these builds makes me kind of nostalgic. Some 15 years ago i was obsessed with building the smallest most powerful pc's i could. There was often no room for anything and it was quite satisfying. Now i don't even know anymore. I think i build a fishtank again.
Looks super clean!
That feeling when you turn it on for the very first time is a sensation unlike any other. Also the last screw to be screwed in/or component to be placed lol.
That's true! Thanks!
Looks neat, welcome!
Oh man you've gotta turn it off, your ram is so hot it's glowing blue!!!
Nice job! :P
Its just very ..cool..!
Congrats! Did you run into any issues? Did you make sure your monitor is plugged into the GPU and set the refresh rate in display settings? Did you enable XMP and reBAR and configure fan profiles in BIOS?
Good job! I've been looking for that GPU for a while but can't get one at a price that makes sense. Enjoy gaming!
Thanks! I hope you find a good price. Thank god I haven't been affected by the shortage yet! I got it for around 430€
cries in tariffs
Best price I've seen actually available is ~800USD
Noyce cable management and specs, I built PC's for 30 years...you sure this was your first build? jk.
I bought the same cooler couple of weeks ago without the rgb, best choice budget cooler imo. Got it cooling a 7800x3d real good.
