Here’s my home build, which is used for a mix of gaming and work use.

Nice upgrade from my old ageing rig that had an FX-8320 and a GTX780.

Originally built in October in a generic Xigmatek chassis, I rebuilt in a H510 as I wanted something that looked more appealing and surprisingly much better airflow.

Generally my day to day work is done through a Virtual Machine, so the specs of this have little impact on that.

However it’s quite a good 1080 gaming rig. I only have dual 1080p 60Hz displays, so the specs are well more than sufficient to beat that on most my games, which are; Red Dead Redemption 2, Forza Horizon 4, GTA V, Football Manager, Fallout 4, Skyrim, Metro Exodus & Watch Dogs Legions.

Currently I mainly play Cities Skylines with a lot of mods and assets, which have been eating ram, which is why I’ve upgraded from 16gb to 32gb RAM
