    Hello Dr_Cog_Science, and thank you for your submission to Gaming PC! If you are new please check out our rules over at the wiki [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/gamingpc/wiki/rules)!
    We have recently added the useful feature of Title Flair! You can set this manually by clicking Flair under your post once you have submitted your post, but if you missed it in the rules there is a much better way that will automatically flair your post!

    To do this simply add what your post is about in brackets before your title. For example for a Build Log you can type [Build Log] before your post so that it looks like this; [Build Log]My new awesome build!, and the bot will automatically set your flair to Build Log! This works for Build Log, Build Showcase, News, Hardware News, Hardware Release, Discussion, and Miscellaneous!

    Also remember that this is a place for discussing and sharing our love of Gaming Computers! This is NOT the place for help building or determining what parts you should buy, that is better suited for /r/buildapc. Troubleshooting questions should be directed to /r/techsupport. Thank you again!

    *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/gamingpc) if you have any questions or concerns.*

    Specs:

    RAM: Team T-Force Delta RGB 32GB (4 x 8GB) 288-Pin PC RAM DDR4 3200 (PC4 25600)

    GPU: EVGA GeForce RTX 3080 XC3 ULTRA GAMING Video Card, 10GB GDDR6X

    PSU: CORSAIR RM1000e CP-9020250-NA 1000 W ATX12V / EPS12V 80 PLUS GOLD

    SSD. 1tb Kingston PCIE 4 X 4 and 1tb SAMSUNG 980 Pro PCIE 4 X 4

    I ordered a Lian Li AIO 360, but Amazon decided to cancel it for some reason. Luckily, the CPU came with a fan and I bought three more AL 120s to replace the AIO’s fans anyway.

    When I was in middle school, I was impressed that we had a chess team, I couldn’t imagine the idea of a school having an esports team, and definitely not having parents that would encourage that. I’ve worked in IT for 20 years and make more than my parents, but they still think my job consists of playing on the computer all day.

    Awesome that you’re doing this with your daughter.

  4. Smiletron1

    Lmao esports against who ? Other schools ? 😂

  5. This is awesome! Looks great! What mouse? Generic? If so, I highly recommend a higher teir mouse for competitive gaming.

    1. W dad
    2. If u can move the pro the floor for more mouse room

  7. MojitoSipper

    What’s the airflow direction for all the fans?

  8. Onyxx666

    I would have loved to have a esports team in highschool. I was super into CS:S back then and really wanted to get into the pro scene. Thank you for supporting their passions.

    By the way, if you want to know what she did, here is a list.

    She installed the CPU, RAM, and two M.2. Drives

    She also managed all the wires for the fans, connecting them to the controller.

    I just used the screw driver and connected the wires to the board.

    Edit: Amazingly, the rig posted and ran on the first try.

    Pretty awesome. Wish the schools I went to had esports teams maybe I’d have actually done well 😛

    I’m sure your daughter is going to be very happy with this beast of a build, she’s one lucky kid!

  11. edgy_Juno

    How much ram is on there? Also, 3080? Nice.

    Nvm. Didn’t see the specs comment.

  12. Extractedpen15bone

    Parenting done well. Double points for the pencil sharpener.

    Way to pass on the keyboard, friend.

  13. IntelxMaster

    Excellent case and how does that case sound since you now have 10 or 13 fans going at the same time?

    Overall good job on the build.

  14. Just-Secretary2998

    1. get a better cpu cooler
    2. get a better mouse and keyboard because i recognize that cheap 20 dollar combo
    3. get a mousepad

  15. Sufficient_Focus

    Looks good, just needs a mouse mat and maybe some more room for the mouse. A second monitor would be good too, I highly recommend a 144hz one for esports.

    Well done, OP.

  16. alxslm294

    if she’s getting into esports, some better peripherals and ESPECIALLY A MOUSEPAD will go a very long way

  17. iPhoneMiniWHITE

    A LOT LESS PINK THAN I IMAGINE FOR A GIRLS PC

  18. Definitely needs a mousepad, that table has too much texture. Otherwise as a dad to dad – big up my guy.

  19. ryantripp

    Does that fan on the back inside of the case near the cpu help the cooling

  20. ownerofreddit_

    So cool! What game does she play for school?

  21. Shuumatsu-Heroine

    Never thought about that before. Schools have esports teams now. I would be all american in fortnite bruh. So jelly.

  22. AdBudget5468

    You have airflow for days, beautiful build

  23. Get a water cooler, it will complete the build
