Hi all!
I'm back in a PC game (and in this forum) after over 13 years of total PC hiatus! But the time has finally come and at the beginning of November I've build myself a PC!
Just mind you that the last one I build was based on an Intel Q9550 and a Radeon 5870...
The new one:
- AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D
- MSI MAG B650 Tomahowk WIFI
- Corsair Vengeance DDR5 32GB 6000MHz/CL30 RGB
- Crucial P5 Plus 1TB + Crucial P3 Plus 4TB
- Gainward GeForce RTX 4070 Ti
- Arctic Liquid Freezer II 240
- NZXT H5 Flow RGB
- Corsair RM850x
All this RGB stuff is new for me so there's a lot I need to learn now, but I'm really happy how it turned out.
And a disclaimer now - I know about the throwback for the "4070 Ti" / "4080 12GB version". I also know that SUPER refresh is coming in a new year. Yet, in my budget and my use cases, this was the most suitable config I could think of.
So far everything is working great. Initially I had my rad at the top with the two 140mm fans at front, but I decided to switch them. Officially the H5 Flow doesn't support top-mounted 140mm fans, but one can still fit them without any issues (if I had known that, I'd probably got the 280mm rad).
All that's left for now is to get some PSU cables extension (a 12PIN GPU and a 24PIN) to make it look nicer and cleaner. Other than that - I believe I'm done!
