First build - "Tron"

[ThatNewbieDM]

My part list is below. This was my first build ever after spending over a year contemplating and waiting to drop the money I finally did it. Thanks to Linus tech tips for all the knowledge I have gained from watching your videos along with countless others and this forum along with Toms. The build took only a few hours from beginning to software installation and downloading which I consider a great success as it posted right away and if anything it took longer due to my countless triple checking of things. I had a fantastic experience building in the Luxe and couldn't be happier with my purchase. I just finished overclocking today at 13% oc with a modest 4.5 oc which I feel nice and safe with after stress testing for 15 minutes max temps were 77 c pictures will be included. This build was influenced by one of my favorite films. Tron and legacy too but mostly the original as I went with white instead of black.

Lol yeah, it was a hand me down from my brother in law who got a 1080. I am planning on upgrading to a better card in the next few weeks. I haven't decided if I am going team red of green. Considering a rx 480 8gb or a 1070.. depends on $$ but I want to be able to play VR
