Took me 6.5 hours but everything is looking good so far! Downloaded drivers etc, downloading games now! Can't wait to see what I've been missing out on
Same, 39 and just built my first PC. Wish I woulda switched a long time ago lol

Congrats on getting yourself into a place in life where you can afford to ascend. Enjoy that shit, you’ve earned it.

Welcome!
Better to take the time with the first one and make sure its all good.
Lighting is a little funny so can’t see, but if you don’t have one then look into a gpu support pillar/anti-sag bracket, or put something under the far corner without blocking the fans, e.g. legos make decent supports.

Nice, you even got a rk61 which is a good introduction to mechanical keyboards!

Hell yeah – congrats on the first build, mate.
May your temperatures be low and your frames be high.

Pro tip: stay away from cracktorio. (Actually, don’t listen to this little pussy, new expansion less than 2 weeks away, the factory must grow!)
You’re going to want to use a second power cable for the gpu instead of daisy chaining

Are the extra fans needed?

Honestly one of the most sensible builds I’ve seen here in a minute. No $250 CPU cooler or $200 in RGB fans while having low to mid tier parts. Just a solid build. Enjoy.
