The Overkill Mk. 1 The Overkill Mk. 1
After years of laptop gaming and dreaming of a proper rig for my heavier games, I finally made the leap and built it out.... After years of laptop gaming and dreaming of a proper rig for my heavier games, I finally made the leap and built it out. Starting with the hardest-to-find parts in the thick of parts shortages, I was able to ensure my build was balanced and available all at once. Now to get through my huge Steam backlog! The majority of the parts came from Micro Center, and one of the employees helped me spec it out as a balanced build with some parts I had already decided on. She had recommendations for anything I wasn't sure of, caught some errors (and saved me good money), and generally had a great attitude throughout! Throughout the build, I had to make a few changes from the original plan. - One of which was a switch from Crucial memory to Corsair. This was since the Crucial memory didn't have great RGB software and kept getting stuck in an ugly way. Plus, with iCue and the Corsair sticks, I was able to set the hardware defaults so it wouldn't blast rainbow on startup! - Another difficulty I had was with the motherboard firmware. It turns out the RGB controller on the board had an issue where it froze up, and information online was limited. However, I was finally able to find an update via MSI's website that, after a few adjustments, I was able to bring it back in full! - Unrelated to the PC, there was a faulty in-wall ethernet connection in the office of my apartment. It took a long time to resolve, but a LV Electrician saved the day and found a break in the line where it met the panel. I was then able to take down the 25ft Cat6 that was temporarily stretched through the apartment and into the router. Now I have Cat6 running gigabit internet, through a switch, and right into the 2.5G LAN port on the motherboard! - Another issue is that my poor Corsair Virtuoso SE is having random glitches with audio output, but only on this machine. Occasionally and randomly, it will turn to painfully crackly static when in a discord call. Sometimes it gets better and sometimes it gets worse if I wait, but restarting the headset makes it disappear. I tried just about everything (all drivers and possibly relevant software uninstalled or reinstalled) until I found threads suggesting it was the UEFI/BIOS. It looks like the more recent B550 UEFI/BIOS updates have continually chipped away at this problem, so I'm still hopeful, but I should probably reinstall Windows just to be sure. - Finally, I have minor annoyances with the RGB and software of multiple brands being so inconsistent or incompatible. For the crazy amount of money I spent on name brands, I definitely expected a smoother experience! SignalRGB ended up being the cleanest way to control them all, but it's still not perfect. Hoping this continues improving in the future!$4,268.09 -

I built this PC mainly for gaming and general purpose uses to replace my Haswell system that died around 2019. Unfortunately, I was not knowledgeable in computer hardware back in the day and in hindsight I might have gone with some higher end specs in various pieces of hardware that I ended up replacing in the last two years or so.$2,304.90
