This is my first PC build, It's called Berkut. I've been watching LTT since before the whole room watercooling video in the old house so I've had some time to think.
Finally decided to build a rig so I could stream because I have a lot of free time right now due to health issues, I wanted a rig that I wasn't going to need to upgrade any time super soon and could run a few different heavy-ish programs at the same time without needing a secondary PC to handle the actual streaming side of things simultaneously.

That is a very weird configuration. And a very wasteful. 990 Pro is great as an OS drive, because of the DRAM cache that doesn't contribute that much for the general storage tasks. I recommend getting only 1TB 990 Pro, and spend the rest on the SN580.

The SN580 came out of a pre-built system that I had bought as an intermediary system a bit ago and has my OS, it would not be my first choice in any case but I am making do because I would rather not do a clone right now. I have the 990 Pro as a Game drive since it is the fastest stable PCIE 4 drive available, unsure why that would be considered "wasteful".

Quite the artifact, I'll be on the look out for any men with hats in the near future.

I hope some of those parts weren't as expensive as they are now, like the GPU, used to cost 1000 now it costs 1400

I got it for a decent price before prices really shot up. CPU and GPU together were well under $2k CaD.
