Hey all, I'm new to the forums so thought I'd throw up some photos of the build I recently finished. It's been several years since I last tackled a groud-up system build and I must admit, tackling this project really reignited my passion for tinkering with hardware. The more eagle-eyed amongst you will notice that I took the photos before installed the second pair of RAM sticks which - for some reason - arrived a few days after the bulk of my components:

 

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 1800X 8-Core (OC'd to 4.0ghz)

Motherboard: Asus ROG Crosshair VI Hero 

RAM: 32GB (4x8GB) Corsair Vengeance LPx Black DDR4 @ 3200mhz

GPU: Asus GTX1080Ti ROG Strix OC (11GB)

Cooler: Corsair H110i

PSU: Corsair RM750i

Storage: WD 500GB SSD, 3 x WD 4TB HDD (7200rpm)

Case: Corsair Obsidian 750D Airflow Edition

Keyboard: Asus ROG Claymore

Mouse: Asus ROG Pugio

Display: Samsung 40" 6000 Series 4k UHD HDR

Sorry that the photos aren't the best - they're quick iPhone snaps.

 

Next plans: replacement, braided cable kit from either cablemods or Corsair...

They're just some Amazon specials, linked to the RGB headers on the motherboard so they're all synced to the Asus Aura control with the rest of the lighting...
