Nice machine.  Bit overkill on the PSU but leaves room for upgrades later 🙂

I use a 750w with my 4080.

 

Happy Gaming 👍 Will be great.

Yeah, I specifically wanted 1k for future-proofing and it was worth the extra 70 bucks over the 850. I have been saving up for 6 years for a good machine and finally had enough this year.

Totally understandable.  The RMx series is outstanding and I personaly only use it in all my builds.

Going a bit overkill on the PSU never hurts!

You saved up well and bought a very good gaming machine 🙂
It will provide an excellent gaming experience!

Eheey! Awesome 😄  Thats great.  Congratulations!

Remember to enable XMP in the BIOS and download all drivers.

I bet! Going from 30 to 165fps is an insane jump!  Do you have a 144/165hz monitor?

 

I see you play a lot of racing games, do you have a wheel setup as well?

I am a huge simracing enthusiast ( Play FH5 with controller )  and I recently upgraded my wheel setup! I can show some pictures if you want 🙂 . Been simracing since 2007.

Good! 🙂  Perfect.

Aha!  Hopefully you can enjoy some simracing with the new PC. I felt quite a nice increase in car control after switching from 60 to 165hz.

I started with a Logitech G25 in 2006 and had a few G27's throughout the years and a T500RS.

Super hyped about Assetto Corsa 2 coming in the summer, cant wait 😄
