I had most of this stuff laying around, there’s a lot of room for this thing to grow, especially in the CPU and RAM department, but it will be diminishing gains. This would be a killer gaming pc for anyone at 1080p and most stuff at 1440p. I was able to get it all together, with all brand new components for UDNER $950 getting stuff on sale.

I’ve been doing some game tests at 1080p and everything is killing it. FF XVI (which is a very graphic intensive game) gets like 110-125 FPS on full on ultra settings - no frame generation, but DLSS is set to quality. Very impressed with that!
This looks fantastic! I’m so happy that you decided to share it! In fact, it looks so good, I’m going to pin it for a few days to give it a focus. Those colors really make the PC pop and look great!
Nope, I have a side hustle - PC Bros LLC in Michigan.Its just me helping out local people and businesses with computers and networking on nights and weekends
Some crazy good value here. Is the 5060Ti the 8GB model or 16GB?
It’s really awesome that you got an SSD that comes with a heatsink, since that board doesn’t have a heatsink built in for the M.2 SSD slots. PSU is a little overkill, but more never hurt. Are those Thermalright fans?
