Built this rig to play my many games at high frame rates while maintaining stellar graphics. I aimed for the 2K resolution as it was the best of both worlds in terms of high refresh rate and still having good-looking graphics. Mainly though, I play games like Battlefield, Call of Duty, Overwatch 2, Wreckfest, Cyberpunk 2077, and many more. For MP games I tend to keep RTX off for the added bump in frames, but for any coop/SP games, I crank everything to 11 and enjoy the beauty. The LG OLED monitor was a perfect choice for me as it provided the refresh rate I wanted while having an incredibly stunning color range and depth of black. Pair that with the 13700K and RTX 4090, and the games not only play super smooth but look incredible while doing so. All this sit on top of the Secretlab Magnus metal desk as I needed something right around this length while having prime cable management and this checked off all the boxes I needed while looking sleek. All in all, everything worked out right the first time, and luckily I planned everything out well enough to where I did not need to reconsider choices. One thing I will change/add in the future is adding my LG 34" UW back into the mix and probably put that on top, just for some extra real estate.

Intended to build a video editing PC, but ended up with a gaming PC lol. Snagged a Zotac 4090 off of Amazon for 1699 right before they disappeared from everywhere. 140mm fans look great! (too bad they don't have a 420mm Gallahad). And no... I didn't leave the NVME in that slot. I did test with it in that Gen5 slot vs the other M2 slot with the 4 lanes direct to the CPU (so not making the GPU run in 8x PCIE lanes). There was zero performance difference (actually it gets slightly faster 3dmark scores with the PCIE gen 5 M2 slot occupied (within margin of error though). Also.. not sure where the AsRock Nova Wifi went on their website (it's still there if you search, but not on the list of MBs). It is an awesome board so far, both in performance and looks.

Post-build, I added a few fans and the internal LCD resource monitor. I also reworked the motherboard and GPU power cabling with Corsair's Premium Individually Sleeved Type-5 PSU Cables for a cleaner look. Microcenter was great to work with and delivered a quality product. In hindsight, I would have given more though about RGB. I think it looks great but takes time to setup and maintain.

I wanted to build a future proof pc for few years. I love it! It's pretty smooth and fast!! I played few games - 4k and HDR on all the time - frames were pretty awesome! Depends on what games. Unbelievable high fps. I look forward for unreal engine 5 games come out soon! Can't wait to see how much it can do!

Fell hard for the game on console. With all future updates/move to PC exclusive. Decided to go all in with a dream build for the first one. Suspend the college savings for a bit and built a 4K gaming beast for around $4k. Got to love symmetry.

It could fit a 4080 eagle oc no problem. I opted for a vertical mount to utilize 140mm fans mounted on the side panel, but this is only advisable on this mesh variant. I think brown industrial noctua fans complements the front wooden aesthetic, and they perform well. The icegiant cooler with the 7700x works wonders too.

After discovering the HYTE Y70 Touch case just a day or two after the company announced that they had exhausted the global supply of the integrated 4K touch displays, I was both in love and heartbroken. I loved the case design and the novelty of the built-in touch display, but now they were sold out everywhere and being sold for exorbitant amounts on the second-hand markets. I had signed up for a few waiting lists for on sites like B&H in hopes that one might appear in stock somewhere. My friend and coworker heard me talk about this case for days and weeks as I spent all of my free time trying to find one for near retail price to no avail. Then one day, while that coworker is on vacation, I get a text from him saying he had received an email from B&H offering him a 30-minute window to purchase one from some stock they had held back. He knew how much I wanted one, and put himself on the waitlist! Now that he had secured one for me, I had to build a machine worthy of such a hunt!

Along with anything else I may need to do on a computer. The future upgrades I see coming is adding the Lian-Li strimmer's for the 24 pin and 12 pin, and maybe 32 GB more of DDR5 ram. I have also added some of my personalization to it by adding bear-bricks in certain locations within the case.

  From the past to the future From the past to the future

The build name is in reference to my now old pc which has lasted me up till this point.4790k, 1070, 16gb DDR3 1800mhz, maximums vii mobo built in 2014. Built this for gaming and streaming (twitch.tv/AdamM3__). Need all the frames I can get, as the saying goes, frames wins games. Currently playing Apex Legends and Escape From Tarkov and the improvement in how many shots connect just because of the increase and constant 144+fps is astonishing. Also put on VR games for when friends and family visit to give them some non-gaming gaming entertainment. Then i'll hop on over to my sim rig and fire up iRacing to keep my driving skills up to par. The funniest and luckiest part about this build is that I bought all the parts in two days in my first two trips all from Micro Center and two days before Christmas. Walked into Micro Center on 12/23/2021 about 8pm, one hour before closing, I went up to the build your own computer center desk and asked the guy if he had any video cards, totally expecting there to be none at all, however to my surprise, he said "Yup we have some right here". I lit up like a Christmas tree, pun intended! I couldn't believe my eyes. Little known fact is that this was my first time visiting Micro Center since 2014 and first time ever trying to find a video card in stock at a brick and mortar store. I was speechless to say the least. Going into the store I had my mind set on buying a 12700k and a DDR4 mobo, as everyone knows DDR5 is sold out right? WRONG, apparently they also had DDR5 32gb in stock!!!! That's when I made the decision to go full out on this build with a 12900k and DDR5 mobo. I just couldn't believe it, I legit hit the PC part jack pot 1 hour before closing two days before Christmas. The MC employee guy was just fantastic, gave me all the insight I needed and answered all questions without judgement hesitation free. I barely did any research because I was not going to build a PC if I could not get a graphics card, but because they had a few in stock, I had to go all out. Unfortunately for the employee, I had to return the initial case and heatsink I bought because I went home and did some more research, came back the next day, and was able to pick up the parts I needed, the Lian Li Lancool 2 Mesh and Lian Li Galahad 360mm. The only bad part about this build is that you cannot fit a 360mm tubes down (the proper way to orientate the AIO). I tried my hardest to get the 360mm orientated properly, but it was just not possible because the video card is in the way. However, during my test fitting, I believe If you mount the gpu vertically (I have no tried this yet, but in theory I think it would work) you could get the 360mm positioned so the tubes are down. I haven't done it because the glass side panel will hinder gpu cooling. However it is possible to put two fans underneath the gpu when it is mounted vertically to aid with cooling, which I plan to do in the future. This is not directly the fault of the case itself because it is certainly possible to mount the AIO properly as you can remove a plate and the HDD bay for tube down position, however the tubes are just not long enough to go around the video card. Would love to see a version of a 360mm AIO with extended tube length to accommodate this.

Built to replace and upgrade my old pc with a gtx 770 and intel i7 4770k built in 2013. Works great, happy with it performance wise — but the rgb has been frustrating. After hours of troubleshooting, I can’t get rgb fusion to work and recognize anything other than the mobo for whatever reason which is gigabytes rgb software (manufacturer of my mobo). Also figuring out how to get all my fans and rgb headers plugged in was a little confusing and required splitters and an additional adapter I had to purchase for the lian li proprietary rgb connector. So only regret maybe not splurging on a nicer board and/or looking into header placement on the mobo more thoroughly. Also, if doing it over, would consider swapping out the 5800x for the 5600x or another cpu. With my personal pc use, I’m not utilizing the 5800x to the fullest extent and a 5600x would still be more than enough. My original build was going to use the 5600x but micro center had a deal running on the 5800x so I took it for $30 more… didn’t realize how much hotter it runs and therefore louder - not a huge concern but just something to note. For those interested on how I placed/plugged everything in… Removed the 3 fans that came with the lian li case off the front panel. 1 was placed at the back of the case as an exhaust. Other two were placed on the bottom of the case above the power supply as intake fans. I placed my Galahad water cooler on the front panel of the case along with all 3 fans that came with the cooler. All 3 are intake fans. Last two fans I purchased were lian li uni fans. These fans had to be placed at the top of my case in order to take advantage of the interlocking daisy chain feature - thereby reducing the number of fan pwm and fan rgb cords I have to connect by one. These were both exhaust fans.

Built this PC to upgrade from my old laptop, mostly play competitive FPS games (Overwatch 2, VALORANT) and I will also use it for university work (majoring in computer science). I've done some video editing as well, so I might do that too. No plans for upgrades for now, but I could probably have saved on RAM and SSD and upgraded the GPU. Definitely happy with the 7900XTX though and it fits the theme very well.
