Purple People Eater

What started out as a simple budget build, turned into an Aorus 2000€ beast. OK, beast maybe an exaggeration but for me, this is the most powerful PC I've ever owned. This is my second complete build but first build where I kind of knew what I was doing. I originally built it with my girlfriend with the intent of showing her how to put together a PC.

Recently I added two LED strips, one top and one on the bottom just to add a little more purple. I also just successfully got a stable over-clock out of the CPU at 5 GHz.

Just upgraded from an Aorus GTX 1080 ti to an Aorus RTX 2080 ti. Money well spent.
