Just put this bad boy together and it runs like a fucking dream. Also delidding that 9900K was the scariest thing of my life but the temps are thankfully consistently low. Got most of this stuff during cyber monday last year though so all around I only spent about 2K.

Edit: I9-9900K is currently at 5.2 GHz with idle temps of 28 C idle and 41 C under load.
2080 is at 2050 MHz (still messing with my settings, cause I could push it harder but don't really need to) for 34 C idle and 55 C under load.

yep, it's a PC all right

Thank you for noticing! It is!

That's a buff PC
What're you using for

did you solder or just fill it with liquid metal

also, pics

Liquid Metal and tape for a 11C difference. I don't trust myself with anything else.

Pics will come soon.

What're you using for

Gaming for when I'm free (that's what the 2080 is for), but music/video editing has been consuming most of my time because I'm helping out my friends band and have been offering my services to some lower level YouTubers for so long on my formerly garbage PC that an upgrade like this makes enough of a serious technical difference that I could actually make some money off it.

Gonna get more, faster RAM though.

Yeah that RAM did seem a little slow
Make sure you have some RBG to make up the speed difference

Ram is one of the few takeaways from my old build, which includes the fans and keyboard. I've got 3200 8x2's coming next Friday, so these are just placeholders. Gonna get another stack of the same the next time I get payed though for some more oomph to editing.

If you're actually serious about video editing and making money off of it then get a 3900x instead of that 9900k. Sure, the 9900k will have higher frames in most games, but only marginally. The 3900x will be faster when it comes to editing though. That's an older model case as well, there are better options that are cheaper too.

But if your heart is set on that build, then go for it, there's nothing wrong with it.

edit: herp derp you built it already, my bad

Kinda realized the 9900K thing a little after I bought it, but thanks for trying to tell me at least lol. I'll be able to make do I believe as of right now because editing so far has been a breeze.

Case-wise I disagree. I got this one for $90 for my first build, and I really see no reason to scrap such a solid and ergonomic case. Cable management (as much as I suck at it) is SO much easier with some of Fractale's additions, and I really like the minimalist design that actually really does help in keeping the noise down..

I got a Meshify C and the only downside is that a three fan GPU probably won’t fit if you have any fans or a radiator in the front of the case

Dissipates heats like a mofo tho
Keeps my room warm now but summer will probably be unbearable lol

Drop the Windows bundle.
Get a trial version of 7 and upgrade to 10 for free. Saves you 100 dollars.

Didn't buy it lol. Just borrowed my little brother's install disc cause mine was lost in a move a couple years back.
