loved it!

Insanity is not the absence of sanity, but the willingness to ignore it for a purpose. Chaos is the result of this choice. I relish in both.

Thanks, "Can't hide money?"  I think the 1950x is not getting the love it deserves it is way faster than the reviewers seem to give it credit for.  I haven't played with an overclock but this chip has all kinds of thermal headroom in the loop.  It boosts 4 cores to 4Ghz easy pretty often, I bet I can get 4.8 boost if I bump up the multiplier a bit.

Just curious around where you're located, I saw a woodworker on youtube and found he was only an hour away from me and it was pretty cool

it's been raining here for the past 2 weeks, so we're humid as crap, but temps are only in the mid 80s right now.

How the crap do you survive 100's?? I have trouble surviving 75+!

That's normal for 1800X/1950X, you wont see 4.8ghz, its hard to get over 4.1ghz on Ryzen one silicone, I get 4.05ghz out of my 1700.

 

Great looking build though, the desk looks awesome, ive been subbed from the start

Don't feel bad I was using the AMD FX 8350 ( DDR3 lol ) and a 1050 ti for years lol. Be sure to keep look out for my build log Project Envy sponsored by In WIn :)

It worked with some sponsors (components only) on some of the stuff since it was going to be so outlandish, but I still have a lot of time and money tied into this thing.

Nice with another wooden desktop PC!

Glad you like it!  I got so many comments about a wooden PC catching on fire the first time I built one...I don't think people realize wood doesn't burn at 90C.

Ya, I wish I would've waited for the gen 2 stuff from AMD, I am sure the clocks will be better.  This one does alright though I played around with some overclocking and got it to 4ghz pretty easily, I will have to play around and dial it in.  I have plenty of thermal and power headroom though.

lol, now I get the DIY enthusiast trolls "If I had all those tools I could build that" and the PC enthusiasts too "I wish I had the money for some hardware like that."
