Upgraded my rig (I am 31 btw)

By


My wife bought me a 4080 Super, so I took the opportunity to upgrade pretty much everything else in my rig via the almighty Micro Center bundle. I upgraded from an EVGA 1080Ti and Ryzen 5 5600X which I’m going to use to build a new rig for my brother.

  • ASUS 4080 Super Pro Art
  • Ryzen 7 7800X3D
  • Gigabyte B650 Gaming X AX
  • G.Skill Flare X5 Series 32 GB DDR5-6000
  • AK620 ZERO DARK Cooler
  • TUF Gaming 1000W PSU
  • Liam Li Lancool 2 Mesh Performance

    Trying to connect (I am 31 btw) with anything in the post… I can’t. Anyways, nice PC, love the black non visible RGB look

  4. BunglingSegue

    Wow. So inspiring!

    I’m like 34, going on 35. Is there any hope for someone decrepit like me?

  5. Big_Daddy_Pablo_69

    Why are you telling us your age, though? Big W congrats

  6. VentiBreadwich

    I thought you were about to say you were still in the womb

  7. TheOneRebornReborn

    Congrats, grampa 🥳🥳 (I am 20 btw)

  8. Basic_Platform8829

    what does your age have to do with upgrading it

  9. Linestorix

    Mentioning your age is an apology? Or a statement? I’m confused.

  10. SluttyRopeGirl

    Damn that’s fuckin sick! (I’m 34 btw)

    Shit, I’m 41 and….sorry, forgot where I was going with that. Guess I go yell at clouds.

    Seriously though, looks nice.

    I have that same case. Love it. I removed the lower drive cage though, since I dont have any mechanical drives. I also have a 360 rad up front for my CPU, so it allows better airflow.

    If you were 42 this would be a trailer trash bullshit setup, but at 31 it’s impressive.

  15. Merciless_Hobo

    Oh man I turn 30 next year and was really stressing. It’s nice to see I can keep living the dream. Thank you for sharing, bless you.

    Why do people post their ages like this is some kind of porno?

  17. CriplingD3pression

    I love the pro art series. They look so good! Clean build there dude! And your wife is awesome for that!

  18. Nikos-tacos

    Very good (I am a sentiment higher being from the celestial cosmos)

  19. andrefishmusic

    Congratulation on being 31, that’s no small feat

  22. LiveLaughToasterB4th

    Why do we care who purchased it for you?

    WTF was wrong with the 1080 TI?

  23. unabletocomput3

    Congrats on the upgrade! Looks pretty slick!

    Just wanna say one thing about your original build tho; the TUF motherboard, stock amd cooler, black ram, and evga 16/20 series cooler go so unbelievably hard, especially in that lighting. Can’t imagine dust looks great tho.

  24. Mediocre-King-5587

    Congrats! Recently upgraded my own rig and will use the old parts to build my girlfriend a pc, sadly this upgrade came out of my own pocket.

  25. Ambitious_Platypus99

    I just built one at 30, everyone said I was too old and arthritic, but I made it happen. Congratulations, now you can go to the AARP website and sign up

  27. Loose-Alternative844

  34. KimJongDerp1992

    Damn. I’m probably gonna get a 5700x3d for myself. I got a 3060ti right now.

  35. Sp_1_

    I’ve been wanting a graphics card upgrade for a few months now… been waiting and holding out for any chance that someone would release a nice 4090. Love the proart series and wish they made a top tier card. Thought long and hard about getting that 4080 Super proart… such a nice card! Gratz.

    Let me ask you something. Are you married or living with a spouse? If yes as an adult do you still have time?

    I am struggling so much to find time for gaming. I just hate responsibilities…. this life as an adult sucked all the fun out of me and i don’t even have kids yet…. fuck

  40. Samsara-Blues

    Very nice build, no flashy rgb just pure mature performance

  43. LeeRjaycanz

    I love the all black set up. Super pretty! What is between the fans on the motherboard?

  44. bakatenchu
