Man, I miss when you could buy parts with matching colors. Now it's all just black and white and we have to pick up the slack with RGB.

I don't know if this is the right place to post but today I just got super lucky on a parts hunt. I got my hand on a PC that is one of those mythical "this PC was given to me by my uncle so I just wanna sell it". It started on a post on Facebook, it was a PC that was so out of place for 400 bucks (287usd when converted). It only stated that it has an i5 4690k and a GTX 970 with a blurry photo of the insides. But then I saw the case and knew it was something special. I contacted the seller and oh my god with I open it. It. Was. So freaking. DIRTY. But while I was cleaning, I slow uncovered surprise after surprise. It dawn to me that I just bought what seem to be a near high end PC from 2015 or 2016. Inside it was actually a i5 4690k, 8GB (2x4) 2400mhz ripjaw x, an AsRock Z97 anniversary motherboard, a Leadtek GTX 970 and a beefy 600w semi modular PSU. I was so excited and the PC turn out really good after a fresh windows installation on a new SSD. Was thinking to change the case but then I found out that the case but I don't know. The cooler master storm scout 2 kinda looks dope at.
 
PS: it took me the entire freaking day to clean everything. Yes, it was that dirty

haha sadly i wasnt thinking at the time and just started cleaning the thing but oh boi. it was like opening an ancient tomb. I try blowing on the gpu and a plume of dust just spew out of it 

Whoa - BOLD overload.

i got ryzen 5 1600x, gtx 1060 6gb, 16 gigs of ram, case, 500w corsair cx psu and 500gig ssd for 200 dollars. but i have hunted for 2-3 years every day so sometimes i find good deals.

What do you think about my PC? well this is my first rig. It took me a while to get it to this point. I first bought a second hand system through a friend. It was a second gen Ryzen build with a Rx 580 and a pretty bad case. I then slowly sold and trade the GPU, case, cooler and ram.
 
The first change was the GPU. I was offer by a friend to buy a brand new gtx 1660. Big mistake as the model was an Asus Tuf 1660 (DO NOT BUY THIS MODEL) with terrible thermals. I then found a post on a second hand gigabyte GTX 1070 G1, selling the crappy 1660 I was relieved to see that the 1070 was an amazing experience. But finally I found the one, a second hand gtx 1080 Asus strix being posted on facebook for $450 (BND). Jumping on it right away, I contacted the seller to see if it was still available. It gave me a small window of time to sell my 1070 then buying the Asus strix. Fortunately some did buy the GPU the same day as I promised to meet up with seller. With GPU in hand, I am now fully satisfied with the gaming performance.
 
Now was the part for the look of the PC and fixing the thermals as the case it came with was on the bottom of the barrel. A Tecware Nexus m with 3 fans that barely pulling air, I began to look for a case and set of fan. Finding a deal on a set of 140mm old gen thermaltake Ring fans, I then turn to my friend again to see if I can order a decent case. Then there it was the case that I always wanted the Phanteks eclipse p350x.
 
Other small things I changed was the ugly and slow ram (4x4GB Kingston 2400mhz ram), bought a second hand wraith prism Max cooler, and slowly save up to buy decent peripherals. Also a 144hz monitor of course
