cleaned it up a bit and swapped from 011D to a Fractal case. I tried to hide as much cables as possible, have to order cablemod cables to make it nicer. Also painted my 6700xt to match, just have to change the RADEON led to white

this is awesome, love the intake plenum PC
-
looks awesome
-
yeah I would like to somehow change the color of the Radeon logo
-
was tired of the OEM colors of the 6700XT FE card so I went ahead and painted it white to continue the white build scheme. next will be adding some white to my motherboard and the fractal fans need some white as well as the vertical mount.

I dont want to spend a ridiculous amount of money on monitors, some of them get really pricey. I think ive narrowed it down to these 3, but would like to hear your input on which would be a better choice. My current setup is a Ryzen 7 5800x with Radeon 5700XT (will upgrade to 6800XT in the near future) for a monitor I just have a cheap 24" HP 24es 60hz. This monitor seams ok, but i have nothing to compare it too as Ive never had the pleasure to have a gaming monitor with 144hz or 1440p. Im not concerned if its 32 or 27" anything within that range is fine, but If anyone has any other good suggestions, I would much appreciate it. Im trying to keep the Price under $500 CAD as Ill be getting two monitors. The 3rd monitor I believe is only a 1080p so maybe not a good choice.

received a new PCI riser cable, so the GPU is back to vertical mount, for some reason the phantek riser was causing issues with video signal.

Which drive do you normally install games too?

oh interesting, ive have so much to learn, Im catching up on all the newest tech, last time i messed around with building PC's. HDD's with 7500 rpm were the new thing haha -

i guess getting a second 2 TB Nvme or an SSD wouldn't be a bad idea for a game library. the 8TB HDD is mainly for storing my downloads, documents, photos ect. -
Ive built my first PC in 15 years, and I have a 1tb nvme as my main drive with OS, and I have 8TB 7200rpm barracuda HDD. All my games I just install onto the 1TB NvMe, but should I be installing all the Steam titles on the 8TB HDD to conserve space? Im installing Black Ops III right now and the download is 116gb, man games sure gotten big. Any downside to installing games onto my 8TB HDD?

ive adjusted my fan curve to allow max 75% fan speed, it seams to work very well. Of course the fans get louder, but not enough for me to notice while gaming. Im just curious where hot spot temp is sourced at, as thats always the highest temp
