Like I mentioned before in the introduction, I had been planning the build since Summer and since then the list changed a lot and I went from wanting to do hardline to bouncing between using an AIO or using a kit like EKWB's MLC Phoenix and then back to hardline. I also made a drawing planning out the approximate shape of the loop and the exact order of the loop.

Ignore this reply, I was trying to bump the post up in the build log topic.

Well, I don't get any allowance and so if I want something expensive it's usually for birthday or Christmas and sometimes a big accomplishment and because for the last two years I was doing really terrible in school, like C and D and some B, getting almost all A's was rewardable. So the PC and monitor and new HyperX Cloud Alpha are allll for my birthday, Christmas, and for improving my grades.
