Seems like you've had a nice spree! Gonna be fun putting that all together, I have to do my loop now,
gonna sit and waste alot of time before I start, not gonna lie, this will be a tough one (for me).
I dig those Royal Z, I have a nice pair in gold, it was a good buy for sure. Have fun!
Yeah had a good spree so far, also well deserved i think. It´s almost 12 years now since i had my last spending spree with my X58 system. Still need more thing, like CPU´s, GPU´s, motherboards, case fans and SSD´s and HDD´s. So my spree is not over yet. But for now i will have to wait and save up some more if possible and see what next year brings to the table like Nvidia releasing the rumored RTX 3080 TI, RTX 3070 TI and 3060 12 GB version. Cause these GPU´s can might end up changing my GPU plans and also if we get a 8 core 65 watt zen 3 CPU (i know 5800 and 5900 none x seems to come with 65 watt TDP, but are limited to OEM/prebuilds).
The royal Z had me trapped as well. I dit originally looking in to G.skills trident z NEO series, but pricing is more or less the same and i just keept looking more at the royal ram than neo. So that settle that about memory. For some the Royal Z is properly to much. But i think they will fit in nicely in the theme i have in mind. The theme is dark/black on everything with some RGB light.
The rest of my hardware plans is, if every thing goes to my plans, that is. Cause you never know how the coronavirus might cost me my job again or other things can happen. But if it all goes to my plans my setup is planned to be:
Main pc
Ryzen 9 5950X cooled by Noctua NH-D15 Chromax.black using Noctua Industrial 3000 RPM 140 MM fans and Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut extreme paste
ASUS ROG CROSSHAIR VIII DARK HERO X570 ATX motherboard
EVGA or ASUS RTX 3080 Ti (i know is still a rumor, but so far i think this is real)
Samsung 980 PRO SSD 1 TB SSD for OS
Samsung 970 EVO SSD M.2 2280 2 TB SSD for games.
WD Gold Enterprise-Class Hard Drive 18 TB HDD
Secondary PC
Ryzen 5 5600X or maybe if a 8 core 65 watt part comes out. Cooled by Noctua NH-L9x65 SE-AM4 CPU and replace that ugly stock fan with a chromax.black fan. yes i´m not a fan of Noctua brow fans, but there Chromax.black fans i totally are in for.
ASUS ROG STRIX B550-I GAMING motherboard MINI-ITX
EVGA or Asus RTX 3060 Ti
Samsung 970 EVO SSD M.2 2280 - 1TB for OS
maybe a WD Gold Enterprise-Class Hard Drive Harddisk 14 TB if my econemy allows it.
For case fans i´m considering Lian Li UNI FAN SL120 black fans.
The rest you all ready know what i got so far.
