After building my first rig, I was headfirst into the world of PC building. I didn't know my next gaming computer was going to be a space heater though. This build I went for the all white with silver finish aesthetic, and it came out better than I expected. Although it was a bit nerve wracking to troubleshoot the overheating cpu, it was a really enjoyable experience. I use the computer mainly for gaming, I enjoy playing hyper realistic simulation games like Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020, Forza Horizon 5, and PC building simulator 2 (yes when I said I went headfirst into PC building I meant it), and some other games that this computer is too powerful for. One upgrade I definitely need to consider is getting more storage, because nowadays games somehow manage to take up half an ssd.

My build started as an upgrade to a 7 year old computer, It had a 5th gen i7-5820 processor on an Asus X-99 chipset motherboard, running 32 Gb DDR4 ram, multiple forms of storage from a 1 Tb Samsung NVME drive, to 3 SSD and 2 HDD totaling close to 10 Tb. Corsair 100 AIO for cooling, and an Asus GTX 1080 graphics card. I first tried just upgrading the graphics card, wondering how much of a bottleneck my processor would be, To my surprise it worked really well upgrading to an Asus Tuff 4070Ti. Then I noticed microcenter had a sale on a new 13th Gen i7, with 32Gigs of DDR5 and a Z790 Asus motherboard. Since I had just been blessed with a financial gift, I went ahead and tried the combo. Wow is all could say, what a night and day difference I noticed running my main sims (MSFS2020 & DCS) as well as with my editing software Lightroom classic and Filmora 12. At this point I thought to myself, after 7 years with my last build it was time to trust the Lord with the finances and finish off the build to my liking. That included the beautifully built and designed NZXT H9 Flow case with Lian Li SL fans and the Lian Li 360 AIO as well as a new MSI Pcie5 ready 850 watt power supply. I also wanted a faster gen 4 M.2 so I added the Samsung 2TB 980 NVME drive with a new key for windows 11. As an avid photographer for my immediate & church family as well as my long time love of flight sims, this new computer is a very appreciated gift from my Lord Jesus Christ. And I am grateful and humbled for the doors he had to open to make it my reality.

I am a Ph.D Mechanical Engineer candidate and I anticipate the use of other demanding software to prototype/research additive manufacturing. I went with a custom loop and emphasized radiator surface area for quiet operations even under full load. A future upgrade I would do is get vented panels to maximize thermal efficiency. The only thing I wish I have done differently is to use a stronger pump solution with a reservoir for my loop.

This PC was built towards the tail end of "the before times" and has served me well for the last year or so. Noctua was my decided theme and I really tried to stay away from RGB parts. At most I just use white light to highlight the internals. I mostly use it to play games like Deep Rock Galactic and Starcraft II but I also dabble with competitive shooters like Battlefield or PUBG. I'm not sure of what I'd do differently because so far, I think it's pretty much the perfect computer for me and I don't think I'd swap any part even if it was free to do so. PC originally started life with a 3900x/x570 Aorus Master but I had lots of USB problems and ended up returning it for a 10900KF/Z490 Aorus Master. Much happier with the Intel CPU overall. Big upgrade over my previous 4790k build.
