Hello, building this rig took a while and upgraded from a previous 1950X build that I'll post later as well. In general the hardware has been obtained on a duration of 3-3.5 years, this rig is used for work/gaming "with a touch of bling ^"

Sorry for the wall of text, but hoping the information I put the time to write will be helpful to other builders.
The prices were adjusted manually to include shipping + VAT to my country as all the products are bought from the USA Amazon/Newegg/BHPhoto Video.

Where I am an RTX 2080 Super regular price is the same as RTX 2080 TI or a bit more even.

Also take into consideration that where I am the normal weather temps during Summer are at 45-51 degrees celcius, Fall & Spring mid 30s to early 40s and during Winter 18-28 degrees celcius...

Cable management was a tough one, as there was about 15-17 meters worth of cables and working them took a lot of time and planning.

For the images, I added full RGB rainbow pictures for perspective, usually I set it as RGB rainbow or Ice Blue or Violet, if additional images are requested to help builders figure things about the case or the RGB please let me know.

- The price total is not correct as for some reason it did not calculate on Builds.gg (I don't know why).

Now to talk in detail about each part:

CPU: I would consider the 3900X & 3700X the sweet spots of the 3000 series of Ryzen processors, value and performance, moved down in the number of cores from a first gen Ryzen 1950X from 16 cores to 12 cores, did a I find a difference, well yes and no...so the loss of 4 cores was made up by the faster 3900X and better temps. My previous 1950X had a TDP of 180 vs the current 3900X of 105.

CPU Cooler: So I am more of a fan of Air Cooling and was planning originally to go for Noctua NH-D15 Chromax as I've had a Noctua for my previous 1950X build and it performed just marvelous, I decided to go with an AIO for the first time in my life to help with the aesthetics and having an air cooler in my case of choice was going to eat out of it's beauty in my opinion, in comes the Deepcool Castle 360EX. In general the mounting was easy, aesthetics looks good and two things that made me pick it up vs the Thermaltake AIOs are the hose was longer for the design I am planning to set it for and the price was justifiable compared to Thermaltake old AIO for 70-100 USD more (taking into consideration the international shipping and VAT). Currently having my AIO with 6 fans as a push/pull configuration.

Motherboard: Pros and cons below, in addition I am planning to build another rig in about 6-12 months and mostly I'll use the 3900X in it, by then will go for the next gen CPUs and wanted a motherboard that's good at overclocking with solid VRMs, plus this motherboard is a combination of everything I wanted to have in a motherboard...minus the price.

Pros: Overkill = check Pretty = check Cool VRM = check Best IO among high end boards = check Side cable area = check No Chipset Fan = check Amazing Build Quality = check

Cons: 1. Price: all those pros came at a cost huh. 2. RGB Fusion software: having bad experience with it and many on the forums/reddits/twitter are having many issues with it with blessed few that has no issues.

Ram: I moved up from 32 GB CL 14 on my previous 1950X rig to a 64 GB Trident Z Royal Silver CL 16 on my 3900X. My regular work load is around 22-30 GB for the ram (not because of chrome), currently it upped to 30-32 GB so my choosing of the 64 GB kit is that it's subject to get increased in a steady pace. And they look amazing >
