Return to Team Red (Ryzen 2700X)

After 7 years with my old i7-2600K, the time to upgrade finally arrived. AMD Ryzen was the obvious decision, as I do creative work (video editing and graphics) in addition to gaming. The build went well (except for initially messing up the CPU install), and she's running cool, quiet, and stable. I couldn't be happier!
