Happily enjoying my Gigabyte Vision 3070ti

Pros: Shipped same day Got it on a massive April 1st day sale. Using it with an I5 10600k and 16 GB of 3200 Speed DDR4 ram.

Cons: The only negative thing I can say about this is the amount of heat it let's out makes the case really hot. I need to upgrade the cooling and airflow some. That can't be faulted to the GPU tho.

Overall Review: It handles everything I've thrown at it: Metro Exodus Enhanced, Control, Horizon ZD all on true max settings and higher ray tracing settings where available. Just monitor your Temps across your hardware at first to make sure everything is doing ok.

The best processor I've owned so far! Intel Core Ultra 7 265KF

Pros: I bought the 265KF, meant to get the K but its ok, anyway its by far the best processor I've ever had. My first 8 core processor and on the i7 tier. It makes everything so so smooth just navigating anywhere . It pushes everything to my RTX 3070ti with room to spare. A huge upgrade from my i5 10600k from my first build.

Cons: None really. The installation process is scary for the .2 seconds you are setting that arm haha. That's about it.

Overall Review: Highly recommend for a great experience. I'm sorry the 13th and 14th gens had a lot of fails and stuff like that but this Core Ultra gen is fantastic. I've always been drawn to Intel, even as a child seeing those shiny i3,i5,and i7 badges when they were new, till now as an adult finally being able to build my own things. The x3d competitors aren't so advantaged at 1440p or 4k and you things aren't as black and white as a lot of buzz would have you believe.

I absolutely love this case!

Pros: It is a great case that feels nice and looks premium. The glass side and front piece are really clear and sharp looking. It comes with an RGB controller, works flawlessly with MSI motherboards, at least with my MSI Z890 Gaming Edge WIFI. The RBG has its own quick connect system that makes things really easy. Now everything I have RGB is synced through Mystic Light. There is a lot of room to maneuver and build in too, it was a much better experience than my first build with a CORSAIR Carbide Series SPEC-DELTA. I highly recommend; it feels great and looks even better.

Cons: Just make sure you do pretty much everything before you throw in the GPU. After that things get less roomy lol. Not exactly a specific con.

Overall Review: Definitely recommend to anyone who wants a nice looking machine that's easy to build with!
