Build Description
I bought this as a prebuilt but then started gradually upgrading components. Never again will I buy a prebuilt, I have so many issues from the mobo not having screws to the microATX case looking awful in the case I got. I replaced the WD Blue 1tb that came stock with a WD Black SN770, I replaces the MSI case with the Lian LI 011 Dynamic Evo XL, and upgraded to 32 gb of ram. I plan to do more upgrades in the future, replacing the PSU first so I have plenty of headroom. Next, the crappy 6600 needs to go, and even though its not awful, AMD cards are thoroughly overpriced and underperform sufficiently compared to Nvidia,
Favorite Feature
I love the case, it is big enough to fit anything I throw at it, and the cable management is amazing.
