Windows 10_18363
Corsair 220T High Airflow Case
AMD Ryzen 5 3600X
GSkill Flare 16GB/3200Ghz
Samsung EVO 2.5 SSD 500GB
MSI GTX 1660 Ti
Corsair rx850m PSU, non-braided cables done by ModmyMods.com  to my specs.
LG 1080P IPS Freesync
Logitech wired G Pro Gaming mouse & Logitech K840 mechanical keyboard
 
 
 
Its a budget build, but thats all i really needed,  looking at a 4K monitor, and adding some M2 & HDD's to the mix, later on upgrade to a RTX_3080. I play pretty much older games, Fallout New Vegas, Crysis, Half Life/Black Mesa.  Will be building a new desk here soon too... EDIT: Ill be replacing the LED fans later, cant stand them, and the Corsair LED software is a POS....!
 
Ive had the system up and running as few weeks now without issues, the MSI stuff has been great. Matched pretty well with the Samsung and Gskill, running smooth too...

    Should play most of my games at 4K/60Hz!  Ive never done a Mods Rigs since Ive been on the forums, lol...   Really looking forward to building the ergonomic desk, monitor vesa arm, and still debating on buying a new computer chair vs building one.  As far as the cables, its a start but im not done yet! 
     
    Question, Does anyone still do local stream video from their system to their TV from their systems HDD? Most likely using ethernet to the TV?

    Believe it or not but it'll definitely have issues with Crysis but not for the reasons you think. While it's still a very good looking game it's the way the engine was coded to depend on single core performance that still to this day brings PCs to their knees.

    With Crysis Remasted, who knows if the update will do more than a cpu single core, my bets are Crytek using the current engine, so hopefully will can see nice 4K res gameplay, Look at Doom 2016 and Serous Sam Fusion at hi-res gameplay.
     
     
    And Im pretty happy with Ghost's performance. Ill keep this thread/build updated as I upgrade, and show, you can Crysis on a budget, lol.....

    Oh I know you can run Crysis on a budget, the question is: how well?
