That's for starters....I am going to do some minor tweaking...when I ran Cinebench...watched all 16 cores...was getting 4.4 to 4.5 out of most...a few hit 4850 and one hit 4950.  This chip is a BEAST.  RJ...again...thanks for all your help...

    Congrats on the new Build.😎👍

    Those who abuse power, are nothing but scumbags!
     The challenge of power is how to use it and not abuse it. When you abuse it, it reverses on you and it hurts you.The abuse of power that seems to create the most unhappiness is when a person uses personal power to get ahead without regards to the welfare of others, people are obsessed with it. You can take a nice person and turn them into a slob, into an insane being, craving power, destroying anything that stands in their way.

    Took weeks!  I basically had 6 places that I checked every day.  Then on Wednesday...25 5950X showed up at my local Microcenter, along with 12 5900X.  I really went for the 5900x, but I was 13th in line to get into the store...and all the 5900's were gone...so I bit the bullet and spent the extra...well worth it, too!  Waited to get into the store for over an hour...only way this was gonna happen

    Dude that is a really clean build. Love the case, never really considered Lian Li before but I certainly will in the future.

    Current Build:
    Ryzen 9 3900XT
    Arctic 420mm AIO
    MSI MEG x570 ACE
    32 GB Trident Z Neo CL16 3600mhz DDR4
    EVGA GTX 980 ACX 2.0
    Sabrent Rocket NVMe PCI 4.0 1TB
    EVGA Supernova G2 850 Gold
    Thermaltake Level 20 XT
     
    Best quote I've ever heard:
    Music has always been a matter of energy to me, a question of fuel. Sentimental people call it inspiration, but what they really mean is fuel. I have always needed fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio.

    It's a good case...good airflow, even with the front filters in place.  280mm to 360mm AIO in front...only 240mm on top...

    Nicve part is...the Corsair H115i RGB Pro is quite a cooler.  They released a new iCue v3.37, which recognizes the Ryzen 5000 series CPU's now.  Set up a fan curve and under stress / full load...the CPU never goes  over 72C.  Little tweaks here and little there.

    Sweet build indeed! So at microcenter, when they opened the doors for yall to get in the store, did they do it like 1 by 1 and only let in so many people at a time?

    There were about 35 people in line.  They insisted on social distance and slowly let the line in

    Been Playing around with benchmarks for the RTX 2080TI XC Black with the Ryzen 5950X vs the i7 7820X.  Mind you...The Ryzen will boost on it's own to 4950MHZ where I had the 7820X clocked at 4.6 all cores.  For the sake of comparison, the 2080TI was NOT overclocked.  The first will be the i7 7820X score and the second wiill be the Ryzen 5950X
     
    7820-X @4.6

     
    5950X stock
     

     
    7820X @ 4.6
     

     
    5950X at stock

     
    Interesting what a difference is made with 7nm and 8 more cores and no overclocking.  While running the test with the Ryzen...saw one core hit 5000 MHZ, another 4975 and a third 4900.  Other cores were between 4.4 and 4.6 GHZ
