The Nine Tails

Build Description

This computer is a beast for all around gaming, streaming, and school. These three reasons is what I had in mind when building this computer. I began with a weak, 2010, iMac for gaming and work. Having a computer this strong is easily one of the biggest upgrades. I am able to run Modern Warfare, GTA 5, Valorant, and League of Legends at 150 - 200fps on 1080p. Work on the other hand is insane. I can handle so many computing applications while having my explore window open with absolutely no lag at all. Streaming is up and coming, I just need to bring an ethernet cable into my room because the wifi coverage is total buttcheeks. Overall, this computer was to completely upgrade from a 2010 iMac.

Favorite Feature

In my opinion, the RGB is my favorite part to this build. The RGB is easily configurable and it just matches with all my RGB peripherals that is on my setup. I built this setup to be as minimalist as possible while also bringing some sort of light to the setup. Having the RGB really does make up for the blandness of this setup.
