Crispy 144Hz Gaming 2020

First things first, thanks for everyone from LTT community who helped build this rig.

After 7 years from last Intel build, decided to build second rig in 2020 for reasonable price based on AMD processor. Good for 1080p/1440p gaming. I'm using Noctua NH-D15, is my second Noctua cooler and I'm very happy and satisfied using this cooler. Quiet and low temp. Using my rig mostly for gaming, light video edit, internet surfing and some office work. All working fine and well.

Decided also upgrade case from Cooler Master MasterBox Pro RGB to Corsair Crystal series 680X RGB.

I was looking for bigger case, and my main target was some double case, because I know things got bigger than in old build, more cables, more storage, etc. I fall in love when I see this case from Corsair. 

Added also 4 Noctua fans NF-F12 and one NF-A14 (3 more to go). Custom modular cables from BitFenix Alchemy 2.0, 4 Corsairs LED RGB strips, 8 low noise fan adapters from Noctua.

I would've spent a little less on the cooler and put the money towards a better motherboard haha, but that looks great all around. Nice build!

Kim Kardashian-West, right there...

I frequently edit any posts you may quote; please check for anything I 'may' have added.

 

Did you test boot it, before you built in into the case?

WHY NOT...?!
