First attempt at keeping wires clean, and when I got this case I was running an i5 6600K with a GTX 1070.
Aorus Elite AX DDR4 LGA1700 board, Core i7 12700K, MSI AiO cooler added.
OP Tower for the antiquated peripherals!
The guts now. I could move the radiator back up top but that's real close to the top of the board.
Graduality
Graduality
Gets its name from the fact that it started life with me in 2015 as an eMachines desktop with a Core 2 Quad Q6600 with a EVGA GTX 660. Then roughly once a year I'd slowly save enough cash to replace a couple components at a time. This is where I'm at, right now. Mildly overkill for the old 1080 monitors I have, but those will be the next purchase!
