Carbuncle

Replacing a 3770K setup. It's used for gaming, some web design & development, and as the family media server. Coworker and I have been following Ryzen's... rise (sorry about the pun) for a while. He recently converted over and has been hyping/sharing some overclocking stories since, which gave me the itch to do a new (Ryzen based) build. All the peripherals are carry overs from the old system.

I'll admit aesthetics are almost as important as performance to me, thus some of the part choices (availability was also an issue). That said, I'm super happy with how this turned out. I had this kinda Blade Runner / Cyberpunk city alleyway lit by neon signs motif in my head. I think the edge lit case / GPU fans and the light ring on the AIO and the way the lights reflect on the inside of the glass achieved that pretty well. The lighting cycles between magenta/fuschia, purple, cyan, and a soft bright green (that sounds bad typed out, but it actually looks nice).
