When I was your age we had to build the processor with hammers and nails, kids these days all using prefabs, makes me sick.
I remember when the parts took up the whole space in the case. Now I see people with aquarium sized cases, but the computer is just this tiny little square in the corner taking up 1/1000th of the space in the case.
When i was young and build my first pc's i would always use just whatever cases i got from my friend who worked in IT. It was mainly these beighe/white hige ass server towers. So seeing these builds makes me kind of nostalgic. Some 15 years ago i was obsessed with building the smallest most powerful pc's i could. There was often no room for anything and it was quite satisfying. Now i don't even know anymore. I think i build a fishtank again.
Noyce cable management and specs, I built PC's for 30 years...you sure this was your first build? jk.
I bought the same cooler couple of weeks ago without the rgb, best choice budget cooler imo. Got it cooling a 7800x3d real good.
Thanks! I haven't even been alive for 30 years!
Wheheheheh, thanks.
....Cheecky youngsters these days.
That looks nice for your first build. I was browsing the comments but it was yet to be brought up, so here it goes.
Whenever you can, and if your PSU has available slot, try and use another PCIE cable going from your power supply to your RX 7700 XT. A single cable powering it might be fine for now but it can be taxing to the cable once you overclock or really pushing the GPU to the limit.
Nonetheless, great job dude.
Thank you! I will look into thay
