Congrats, hombre. 😎 That's a pretty beefy PSU for a low power system. Do you anticipate adding high end GPU's in the future?

I also didn't do anything but appreciate the "thank you" thread.

Congrats on your new build and thanks for posting pics.

Agreed. Congrats and thanks for the pics. 😎

I don't know that I've ever posted a thread specifically asking for build advice, but the stuff I've read here certainly has been helpful. :thumbsup:

Thanks for the pictures. Even though I do custom-build computers, and look at Newegg every day for specials, it seems that the other people in this forum are way, way, ahead of me, so I don't comment much on build threads, unless I see something obviously wrong.

I agree, this forum is helpful. (I've posted some build threads myself, on occasion, just to get some collective input.)

Very welcome:thumbsup:

i learned to err on the side of caution. that psu will outlive my system and last me till my next upgrade.
the only thing i see buying in the next year or two is another 27" screen, but for that ill wait for the current wars to end and take the cheaper nvidia option
