Build Description
This is an accumulation of my time and effort into the Personal Computer hobby. After hours of research and planning, I have produced a product that I am very happy with. The hardest part by far was waiting for the 50 series during launch at the Tustin CA Microcenter location. It was very well worth it to be one of the last ones to be able to snag a card at launch. I'm blessed to live close to one of the best computer stores in Southern California!
It was also very cool to see jayztwocents at 7AM building a computer during the launch LOL!

Favorite Feature
The all black, air cooled look is clean in my opinion. It definitely has a performance boosted feel to it. PC go brrrrrr :p
