Description
This is my second build that I made for myself, and it has been very aesthetically driven. It took nearly 7 months of planning, along with 1 month of allocating all of the parts. Overall, I am very happy with how it turned out. I haven't done any benchmarks yet, but I'll try to update as I do it. So far, I've only played CS:GO at max settings, 1080p 60fps. This is a massive upgrade over my old system (Athlon 880k + 1050ti). It took less than 3 minutes to install CS:GO, so a large upgrade over my previous rig. Thank you so much PCPP for your help. See you next upgrade!
Part Reviews
CPU
Gets the job done perfectly. Would recomend 100% to anyone unsure of where to start for their budget build. Rarely bogs down, and an overall improvement from my old build.
Motherboard
Great compatibility, I didn’t have to get a dud cpu to update the bios. Had a very pleasant time building. My only problem is that RGB Fusion seems like it was made in 15 minutes by a toddler.
Memory
Beautiful. Fast. Really all you need to know to buy it.
Storage
Lightning fast. Definitely get over a hard drive any dya!
Video Card
Great GPU, if you can get a good price on it
Case
Comes with RGB strips. Case is clean. Just really good overall!
Power Supply
Great power supply. Try to get sleeved cables if you can!
Monitor
Good budget 27” monitor. Got it from Costco for $200 cad.
Mouse
Very durable, maybe a bit uncomforable after a while. Good otherwise!
Headphones
Great sounds, and some RGB goodness. When you get it, use iCue to enable surround sound!
Custom
Looks great, compatibility went fine. Would reccomend if you find a good deal, and comes with plenty of cables.
Custom
Cheap. Frayed within a few days. Thinking of getting smaller but RGB mousepad.
Custom
Very amazing feel vs. Membrane. Very much would reccomend to anyone looking for a good, genuine Cherry mechanical keyboard!
Custom
Radiant and very bright. Over 50 different profiles, but not all are good. If you don’t want to spend $100+ on fans then these are a great option.
