The Bat - First PC Build

[The Astroneer]

This is my very first time building a PC. I have been watching Linus Tech Tips, JayzTwoCentz, etc for a few years and have wanted to build a PC for quite some time. Well the time finally came. Yesterday I built my first PC, it took me a few hours. Booted up on first attempt. 

Specs-

CPU - i5 7500

CPU Cooler - CM GeminII S524 Ver. 2

Video Card - EVGA GTX 1070 FTW

RAM - Kingston HyperX FURY 8GB 2133MHz (Will expand to 16GB later)

Motherboard - Asus PRIME B250-A

SSD - Toshiba OCZ 240GB

HDD - 2TB 7200RPM Seagate BarraCuda, 1TB 5400RPM Seagate

PSU - EVGA 550W G2 80+ Gold Fully Modular

Case - Fractal Design Define Mini C with Window

Not a bad little build. But I would have personally went with a Cryorig low profile cooler for the CPU, just to match the whites inside the rig.

 

But nevertheless, very snazy.

Me too. I saw it on Linus' video of the editors building their PC's and it really stood out to me.

Thanks. I'll probably stick with this cooler for awhile though.

When your first build is better than my first and second (current) combined
