I built this system to replace my old gaming/rendering system that I had been using for about 4.5 years. The graphics card in my old system at the time was the single most expensive part I have ever purchased. The graphics card in this new system pole vaulted over that record. I should be good for probably the next 6 years with this system. I have a mild 5GHz overclock on the CPU and the system is totally stable. My goal when picking parts was to incorporate RGB items in which I needed only a single piece of software, in this case, Asus Aura Sync. I am totally happy with how this turned out and would only change out what cabling I used.
