Scrap 2.0

by MNixon Posted on: 7/21/2020

Build Description

I originally built this PC because I needed a big upgrade from my old system (i7-4790k CPU w/ a gtx 960 GPU). With gaming in mind I wanted to make sure I wouldn't struggle with playing any big titles that caught my eye or streaming said titles.

I began the build with eventually wanting to do a custom water loop in the future. Ever since I started building PC's and saw that was an option I knew I had to have a system with it. I watched countless videos of how to bend hard tubing, how fittings work, and just the overall process of how to build a water loop start to finish! I then made a part list, purchased all my cooling parts slowly until I had everything I needed and then some! (Bought extra fittings and extra hard tubing because I knew I was going to mess up some of the bends)

Mostly I use my system for gaming/streaming (twitch.tv/ScrapppFPS) and I play games like CS:GO, Valorant, Apex Legends, and Call Of Duty.

Favorite Feature

I love the vertically mounted GPU with the EKWB water block on it. It feels like a show piece but has great performance!
