Hello,
As the title says, I wanted to display, shamelessly, my new rig. Have an awesome rig with an EVGA (E758-A1, Intel X58 ATX) motherboard in it sporting a Corei7 920, but it came time for an upgrade. Anyways, here are the specs for my current rig:
Corei9 7900x Skylake-X
EVGA X299 Dark Motherboard
Samsun 960 EVO 250GB M.2 Drive (OS)
Samsung 860 1TB SSD (Games, etc...)
32GB Corsair Vengeance LED Ram
EVGA SuperNOVA 1200 Watt PSU PLatinum 80+
Corsair Hydro Series H150i 360mm Radiator, Triple Fan
LG 27" 27UD58P-B IPS 4K monitor
Windows 10 Pro
Thermaltake Tower 900 Series *
Awesome Friend helped me put this monster together over the course of 2, near 3 weeks. GPU wise, I had my eyes set on some GPUs with $$$ set aside to buy one, but I didn't realize what happened to the GPU market and shot my wad. Thanks again to my awesome friend, I borrowed a GPU to test out the system and same friend is willing to let me nab a 1060 3GB model till things stabilize a bit.
Anyways, here are some links to those images.

Had a little issue with getting the OS onto the M.2 Drive, but this was fixed by changing the boot order with the USB being set to #2.
*Note: For anyone tempted by this case, it is a monster of a case meant for water cooling. After several not-too-friendly words being almost screamed, the 360mm cooler was mounted to the HD enclosure. I'll also say that it's kind of a shame only one side of the 3.0 USBs can be used on the Thermaltake. You have to pick one side since there's only one place to plug them into the X299 motherboard.
Anways, if I'm really lucky, I hope to score a 1080 or 1080 ti when the new Nvidia GPUs potentially release this summer, according to the rumor circulating online.
*Edit* Updated the tags to display the images. Sorry for the goof, thanks to the_Scarlet_one for the heads up.
