I would say this is my first build but its not, BUT it is my first gaming build. I "finished" it June, 30 2017 after is spent 18 hours running around trying to figure out why this Brodwell-e cpu won't work in this board just to find out im dumb and it only needed a BISO update. I say "finshed because over the past 2 years iv been adding to it like I did a acrylic side panel to replace that crappy plastic one that the C70 comes with, and than the WD SSD that I bought for my other computer Earl to through in a PCI-e card and have it be the boot drive only to find out earl cant boot to a PCI-e driver (probably should have seen that issue for a mile away but hay) and most recently a ssd heatsink for my mp force 500 to keep that thing from over heating under heavy use (not that is sees a lot its just my boot drive but it does look nicer than the normal sticker). Now as you can imagine my desk layout has changed over time as well but that is not important. I do plan in getting a vertical gpu mount adapter at dome point just because I like the way the top of this gpu looks a lot more than I do the side.
