A sweet looking build! Is a GPU upgrade in your future? Not that the current one doesn't work. +1 :)

I understand that perfectly. I don't know if I can afford the next gen video cards if prices continue to rise.

Nice rig and keeping things at default for a week to test out is what I recommend. Normally I do 72 hours at default but often it goes longer before I have time to really see what I can do but now days I am not as overclock crazy as I once was since overclocking I feel has been about higher benchmarks then making a game more playable.

Congrats Knightviper on winning it . Hope you can update your GPU for a reasonable price (in the middle of this mining/memory shortage madness, it's hard, I know).

I don't know why the DG 87 gets such a bad rep as an ugly case. I personally love it and if not for build budget and space I would have selected that for my case. Great looking build.

Not everyone can afford a GTX 1080ti so a GTX 1070ti is also a good choice.

So long as it works well and does everything you need it to do then you're fine.

Why would he not? It's his thread. Why would you ask such an unfriendly question?

Sorry I didn't say that I just added my first custom water loop to the build I just updated a pic. I didn't think it would be right to post a new thread with the new parts that I have put on this 3 year old build. I thought it would keep the fourm clean and no cross contamination as its still the same system with some new upgrades
