i3-13100 build - Making an old computer modern.

Build Description
This is a light gaming PC. I'm still rocking my pretty MSI GTX 1060 on account of it never breaking a sweat being bottlenecked by my CPU so I'm excited to finally see what it can do on the modern more CPU intensive games! I'd totally recommend the items I purchased.
Favorite Feature
I am really happy with my processor. I always had a piledriver/bulldozer on account of my am3 mobo so finally having an above average processor is such a treat! The employees in store matched my excitement and I was lucky to grab the last one.
