Finally pulled the trigger on upgrading. My old system did me well for many years but it was time to upgrade. Everything came together pretty much as planned. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/NcGqVW
Noice, why 14700k though? 7800x3d is cheaper and faster

Looks clean. Sometimes I regret not getting this case but Iām happy with my build. Might upgrade to a 4080s though š

Nice cable management. What are you going to use that machine for?
CuriousLockPicker
How hot does your 14700k get during benchmarking? Just curious.
Also, hope you didn’t actually pay $1900 for the 4080s. If you’re patient, you can get 4090 for MSRP ($1600)

Damn that is some tight clearance clarence.

Should have got a 4090 for a $3600 build

went from the 6600k &1050ti to a 12600k & 3060.
the 6600k is a great CPU to be honest.

If it wasn’t for that ugly Areo RGB logo, this would be near perfect for my taste. Just that logo, ugh.
Nice though! Tastefully done!

My gigabyte aero 4080 super came with bent fins like that too. I used a toothpick to bend them straight.
clean looking build congrats. I need recommendations to clean up mine.
Can I buy your 1080? Would be a great upgrade to my 970
