Corsair Hydro Series, H100i RGB PLATINUM SE, 240mm Radiator, Dual LL120 RGB PWM Fans, Advanced RGB Lighting and Fan Control with Software, Liquid CPU Cooler. (CW-9060042-WW)

Pros: -Awesome colour -simple instructions -easy fitting parts

Cons: -USB from pump for RBG is a little wonky and loose just gotta slap it in last and not jiggle to much and your good to go -Thermal paste in my case was NOT enough. Unsure if it was misapplied before hand or if it simply needed to have more but scrubbed it off re-applies and she’s golden

Overall Review: If you have a white build like me THIS IS THE ONE. Yes more $$$ but worth every penny so far

Awesome GPU

GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 3.0 x16 ATX Graphics Card GV-N206SGAMINGOC WHITE-8GD
GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 3.0 x16 ATX Graphics Card GV-N206SGAMINGOC WHITE-8GD

Pros: Works fantastic runs very cool and quiet and looks amazing

Cons: Not a lot of RGB and it’s not the best RGB but I like it

Overall Review: Only 2060 Super that is white for my build and it works as well as any other 2060 super I’ve used from other companies. It DOES not have the second plug in and IT DOES NOT NEED it

Awesome monitor

MSI Optix G27C2 27" 1920 x 1080 1ms (MPRT) 144Hz DVI HDMI DisplayPort AMD FreeSync Widescreen Anti-Glare LED Backlight Curved Gaming Monitor
MSI Optix G27C2 27" 1920 x 1080 1ms (MPRT) 144Hz DVI HDMI DisplayPort AMD FreeSync Widescreen Anti-Glare LED Backlight Curved Gaming Monitor

Pros: -Beautiful design -Shipped extra safely with loads of protection in the box -No dead pixels -5min Set-up -Awesome lighting and couldn’t ask for more 1MS 144Hz

Cons: -No VESA buuuuuut TONS of aftermarket to replace the stand with a bolt in block that bolts into the stock back mount that IS VESA compatible

Overall Review: I love it, going on 3 months with it no and no issues. The lighting is on the darker/ambient side of things but there are other settings that brighten it up but I found it to be my preference. No screen tearing, compatible with G-Sync//Free Sync

Best bang for your buck no discussion

AMD Ryzen 5 3rd Gen - RYZEN 5 3600X Matisse (Zen 2) 6-Core 3.8 GHz (4.4 GHz Max Boost) Socket AM4 95W 100-100000022BOX Desktop Processor

Pros: -Very Powerful runs AAA without hesitation -Cost effective for the power it brings to the table and all the supporting things it needs are also in a nice low price setting and you still get excellent quality regardless of price for them

Cons: -Runs on the warmer side but not as warm as I originally had it. I figured out AIO did not have a correct amount of thermal paste so it was roughly 10-15*c hotter than it needed to be at load usually runs low to high 50*c with a max of what I’ve seen at 62*c with everything being all set in

Overall Review: 100% would recommend I got the X as I wanted to over lock and push the boundaries. Ended up not even having too.. so if you want to flex on the homies go ahead grab the X otherwise save some $$$ and get the normal 3600 as it literally doesn’t need it... YET I’m sure as technology improves as usual in the future it would be wiser for the X but honestly right now If it’s just for gaming the 3600 would be enough

Awesome Purchase

CORSAIR Vengeance RGB Pro 16GB (2 x 8GB) 288-Pin PC RAM DDR4 3200 (PC4 25600) Desktop Memory Model CMW16GX4M2C3200C16W
CORSAIR Vengeance RGB Pro 16GB (2 x 8GB) 288-Pin PC RAM DDR4 3200 (PC4 25600) Desktop Memory Model CMW16GX4M2C3200C16W

Pros: -Beautiful ans customizable RGB -Pre-set RAM Profile that gets instantly picked up by MOBO

Cons: -Runs on the warmer side temp wize up to around 42*C at full load running a AAA Title with many background applications running as well. But not a concern unless you are running a mini ITX and aren’t looking for a mini oven as far as a rig

Overall Review: Would definitely recommend I mean everyone already knows Corsair makes some really nice RAM sticks with an awesome customizable RGB profile with their easy ICue software

Awesome cost effective and performing motherboard

ASUS Prime X470-Pro AM4 AMD X470 ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: All the plugs ins RGB! Very clear instructions manual All the online support COMES WITH GEN 3 RYZEN BIOS PRE-INSTALLED.

Cons: USB 3.0 Header placed at bottom right corner of motherboard and is the only one. May or may not be awkward for some depending on bottom or top mounted PSU and or case size and bottom fans size.

Overall Review: Works great, 0 issues. Posted up first try picked up Corsair RAM profile right away, Overclock wizard auto magically boosted my Ryzen 5 3600x. I have already recommended it to 2 friends who have since purchased and are also running the board without any issues. Only thing to worry about with this board is the fact that it won’t be as future proof as an X570 when PCIe GEN4 comes out but at the time of this review it’s still a solid purchase and will last for time to come
