H500M case(Sale for $100)

MSI Gaming Edge( $194)

AMD 3800X(Price match to $350. Originally gonna get a 3700x at $324 price match) with Cougar 240 ML AIO($79)

16 GB 3600 MHZ Tridentz CAS 16 (on sale for $99)

Evga RTX 2080ti Blower( Replace blower cooler with an FE 2080ti cooler)

M.2 1TB adlink ($139)


5 TB HD storage. Probably gonna get SSD to replace them.


I Was going to do a custon loop system because of the blower card, but the pump aesthetics weren't my taste.


Pretty solid 8/10 build for me. Pump hose is distracting as fukk.

Bruh how did I miss this thread? :wow:

FINALLY decided to upgrade my larrytop :flabbynsick: I been rocking with since 2016. More memory and SSD coming up :krs:

Should I get a wrist strap or nah? Kinda don’t want to.
You can discharge the electricity by touching bare metal. The strap:dame:Makes it so you don't have to think about it. I never use them.

Will see once it gets delivered if this Mechanical keyboard FAD is worth the money i spent for just programming and general typing :lupe:

Right now i need to cop an arcade stick with swansa buttons to make the cypher complete. I cant imagine myself playing games on a keyboard :scust:

Bruhhh... Pass on that CPU. I just upgraded from it. It's workload bottleneck. Better off with a Ryzen 5 3600 and slightly better GPU
Yeah think I'm passing on helping her out. Told her to save her money and maybe by the holidays she can get something. I know her parents ain't gonna help cuz they busy saving for a house anyways. Gotta focus on seeing if I upgrade my build somewhat but in no rush.
