Not A Single LED Was Lit That Day X99 NZXT S340

Just finished my gaming rig. I'm waiting for Pascal so I got a fairly capable but cheap temporary graphics card(got it on sale :D) 

 

RBG was a huge influence for my build. I've seen everything has RGB now even mousepads and power supplies smh. I decided to do it old school and make it as clean and simple as possible. a few of my friends told me why I cheaped out on the case but I really like how minimalistic the s340 looked.

Finally, the CAD-U37 gets some love. Great build.

It would be even better with one of those “frameless” IPS panels tbh. You know, the ones that have the LCD level with the bezel (heh), and look like they have no bezel at all when off.

I quite like the way a pronounced - but not intrusive - bezels make the image on the monitor stand out from the rest of the setup by framing them. I also have one of those 'frameless' panels (although it's VA) and I was disappointed in the false advertising as the bezels inside the housing were thicker than I expected- although I don't know if this problem is consistent with all 'frameless' monitors.

I already performance over looks. I was planning on getting the ROG Swift 27" monitor but I didn't like the red accents it had

This condenser mic is really impressive for the price!

I don't own one, but it's a decent instrument mic as well, even with that low-mid peak. I could probably record a drum set with it.
