Bang for buck, no compromise build

[RonB27]

Specs are: 

CPU - Ryzen 7 2700x

GPU - Gigabyte windforce rtx 2080ti

16gb 3000mhz ram

1x 250gb 970 evo

1x 2tb hdd

Mobo- Asus x470 prime pro

 

Case: antec p110 luce

 

At first this build had the stock amd cooler and only the fans that you get when buying this case.

 

Afterwards I decided I want to pimp up a bit my pc and upgrade the cooling so I bought some more rgb fans and and h150i pro to cool my cpu.(which now sits at 45c at full load vs 81c before)

 

I was satisfied, at least for a time... but I quickly realized that I wasnt going to make do with 74c on my gpu with underwelming boost clocks.

And so, I decided to go the custom loop route.

 

I purchased a Heatkiller block for my GPU and started to build a loop for it.

So far, thats what Ive got.

 

(I will add some pics later)

Your title is a bit of an oxymoron, bang for buck means you save money by taking a performance hit, but no compromises means you spend extra to get every last bit of performance

I see why youd think that but I ment it by squeezing every ounce of performence without blowing up my wallet by choosing amd and using second hand parts but with tier S  performence

I paid for this pc including the loop what youd pay for an i9 9900k and 2080 build with decent air cooling where I come from

well maybe i can butt in and say how about another Mobo? ok that is just being a jerk

 

Hope you like your finished build, i mean a custom looped everything with the price of a I9 build i would take it (if i have the money)

Update:

 

Problems in paradise...

Apperently the manufacturer of the GPU block has had a mistake regarding the compatibility of it with my card and now im getting horrible temps and cant get it to fit properly.

 

Tommorow is my last chance to fix it or else ill have to dissassemble the loop.

The build is really nice, I disagree with the CPU though as it will bottleneck a 2080 Ti though

My options were r7 2700x 2080ti or 9900k 2080 and thats why I chose this CPU

 

2700x + 2080ti > 9900k + 2080

In 3440x1440

Simple math lol

there is a reason you cannot find reviews of the 9900k that test at anything over 1080p

 

because at anything over 1080p there is no bottleneck

 

9900k bottlenecks your wallet in every single situation though since Ryzen @ 1080p with a 2080ti is 1000% playable at less than half the cost

I'd have gone i7 9700K + 2080 Ti personally.

Bottlenecks even at 4k...

The build is complete

I'm really satisfied with how it all came together
