Apollo

Apollo has seen many variations in his life. Starting from a gun metal colored pre built Gateway running a Q6600 and a XFX 7870, to a Fx 6300 and a RX 460 housed in a Phanteks P400, to his current form in a FD Meshify C running a R5 1600 and an EVGA FTW2 1070 with G.Skill RGB ram. I started my love for PC building after I was gifted GTA V and realized the pre-built without a gpu wouldn't cut it. Ever since then it's been an addiction.

It won't stop here either. My next route is doing a custom loop, but finding a GPU waterblock for the FTW2 card isn't very easy now that we have RTX. If anything the cpu will be done relatively soon. So stay tuned.

Update 11/20/2019
I found a waterblock for my gpu and incorporated it into the loop. Just today I picked up a Thermaltake P3 case to swap everything into so he's gonna be a good Apollo 2.0 build will add pics later on.

Any feedback on what I could do better or change would be appreciated. Always looking to make Apollo a better beast.
