A Shiny Rock

Build Description
I use this build for primarily gaming. I run some quite intensive games on this build including Escape From Tarkov, Warhammer Darktide, Battlefield 2042, Forza Horizon 5. In all of these games I really love taking advantage of the raw power in this system to produce some of the most stunning gaming experiences I’ve had in my life. At the moment I don’t have a lot of aspiration for upgrade as this system is pretty high end at the moment and is satisfying all of my needs for the time being. But I would like to maybe venture into streaming and pick up a capture card eventually.
Favorite Feature
I really like the case, it’s a Corsair 4000x icue. I really think the white case is very sleek and I like the design of the front glass panel, whilst also not restricting front airflow.

This is the MSI Ventus 3x 10gb RTX 3080. It’s an absolute tank of a gpu and is amazing in outputting some of the best picture quality I’ve ever seen.
