Hi guys,
I currently have a gaming laptop with an i7-7820HK, and a GTX 1080. It has had way too many problems with cooling and GPU failure. So I'm going to build my first pc.
Can you guys give me some advice on the parts? Especially the case. I prefer a minimalist mid-tower, but can't seem to find what I like.
