Thought I posted these but guess I never did. This is after I got the 1080.

Edit: Just realized this is mildly out of date too since I have an EVGA PowerLink on the 1080 now which cleans up the cable look considerably. Oh well. I'll get some better pictures when I move.

Mining rig. This one runs all the time while my gaming rig mines while I'm not gaming.
Yes, that's an AMD stock cooler on an Intel CPU, because the plastic clips on the one I had before broke. I simply put thermal paste on the CPU, then some glue around the retention bracket and it cools it decently at stock speeds.
I know it looks like shit but it makes money so...

You did uh what now?

Edit: Since I cleaned my room and got the new VESA mounts desk is looking a lot cleaner. Really want to get a new desk though, just waiting till I move out in a few months. The desk on my left is at least from the 1960's if not before and neither was designed for a computer obviously.

Got the i5-8400 up and running on the Gigabyte Z370P D3. What a great experience. Easy install, Windows 10 reinstalled incredibly quickly, and it takes no longer than 5 seconds to boot to Windows! I didn't think I'd see that much of a difference coming from the FX-8300!

Had to manually enable the XMP profile to get the RAM to run at 2666, but it was two clicks and done. UEFI is incredible.

GTA V loads in about a minute, compared to the 5 minutes it took before, and is pegged at a solid 60 FPS now.

This felt like when I went from the Athlon 64 to the Athlon 64 X2 haha. I didn't even notice this kind of performance boost going from the Phenom 9550 to the FX-8300. I'm way too happy lol.

Anyways, anyone looking to upgrade should keep their eyes peeled on Newegg and Reddit. I actually waited an extra week and got the Z370P D3 for $50 with an i5-8400 combo 'flash' deal.

Rebuit my machine (specs in sig) with my new Fractal Design Meshify C in White. Also sprung for sleeved cable extensions and 5 new fans. Really like how it turned out, although sleeved cables are more of a hassle than I expected. Probably will go back and tidy them a bit eventually. Fairly compact case, had a good time stashing all the extra cables in the back but worked out pretty well.

So much for cable management hey? :rolleyes:

This is my old i3 Sandy Bridge box I'm keeping in storage. I built it on a budget while collecting parts monthly for my i5 system.

Selling it would be a loss and it works good. By the way, I added a Sapphire HD6670 1 gig VC later.

Redecorating the bedroom last week was the perfect opportunity to get the PC out and dusted.

Still loving the white H440. I remember not being too sure about the white case when I bought it way back in December 2015, but as soon as I started building the system I knew I had made the right choice. It hasn't yellowed like I was concerned about, but I guess being under a desk there isn't much direct UV radiation going to it so it helps (and also the fact that it is mostly metal, not plastic).

Yeah I'm gonna need to pickup an LED strip for my new apartment. My "dining" room is just going to be my PC setup.

Who needs dinner tables?

Gave my brother the ol' AMD FX build, and helped him transition the parts into his shiny new case. This is by far the best case I've built in. So spacious and plenty of room for cable management - not that I utilize it too effectively hehe.
