Damn you all are dominating this thread. loving all the photos.
i love that this thread is still going, your builds are all amazing.
Sorry if the pictures come out all jacked up and HUGE. Copy pasting imgur bbcode links is the only thing that worked.
My PC is a complete budget build in terms of on the entire setup including all peripherals and desk, my budget was $1500 (Which I am under). Thanks to a local Office Depot for closing down because the $600 desk, 2x $200 side monitors, and $300 main middle monitor I got for a lovely $550. I am still well under budget and I am planning on the next tower build as we speak already nabbing up parts I would never afford if it wasn't for some sweet sales and a lot of patience. I like to tell everyone I know that patience and waiting is key. Sure you have the money to build a $800 tower right now. But it it can wait just 6 months. I bet you can buy $1200 worth of parts by waiting for the right sales to come along.

All Wood and Steel Sit/Stand Desk. This was a dream of mine as I liked the idea of having a slightly healthier way to do my favorite hobby. I would highly recommend one to anyone.
The chair is a basic one I bought just to sit in and won't last longer than a year and is the first major upgrade. Just looking for a nice price on a big Serta Office chair because I had a gaming specific one and hated it. Gotta be comfortable when you are gaming all day people!
Audio and Peripherals: [$600]
Speakers - Logitech Z313 - It is only 2.1 but in terms of music and movies, for a bedroom like mine, it BUMPS HARD.
Headset - Corsair Void Pro Limited Edition - This is a great wireless headset and I get a full days use without needing a charge.
Keyboard - Corsair k55 RGB - A nice budget RBG keyboard. Wish it had more per key lighting customization but for less than 50$, it gets the job done.
Mouse - Corsair Harpoon RBG - A nice budget mouse with multiple different profiles for setting DPI and colors. I like heavier mice and this one is a little medium for the weight but with my big hands, It feels nice.
Deskpad - Razer RZ02 RBG Mousepad - I had to tie it all together. So far it is holding up well and the RBG looks nice and even across the whole mat.
Monitors - 2x MSI Optix G24C and 1x MSI Optix G27C2 - All 3 are 144hz curved 1080p and are way overkill in terms of what the size monitors are cable of vs. what I use them for. But for a closing down business sale, I literally could not say no and it put the whole setup in motion.
PC Tower: [$300]
I will start by saying that when I found the desk and monitors. I realized that the universe wanted me to be back on PC gaming. So I set off to buy a system on Facebook Marketplace and i found this one for 500$. he wouldn't budge on the price but would accept my Xbox One S plus 200$. Well I got the Xbox a while back for only 100$ so for 300$ total, I cannot complain. here are the specs:
Case: I have no idea - It came with a Lanbox Lite case at the start and I hated it because it looked like a microwave so this is a case I got for 50$ off of Amazon. I like it, Airflow is really nice, I plan on adding a 3rd blue fan to the front to complete the whole look.
Motherboard: Asus H110 series - Nothing special but gets the job done.
CPU: i7-6700 @3.40GHz - You will also notice it has the stock Intel Cooler on it. I delidded it and used the right thermal paste on the cooler and don't see anything over 55 degrees C when under load playing games which I think is pretty dang good.
Memory: 16gb x1 of I have no idea. But it clocks around 3500 at idle.
Hard Drive: 500gb Samsung Evo SSD
GPU: EVGA GeForce 1050ti 6GB - This card has surprised me with what it can handle and is honestly the backbone for the PC hands down.
OS: Windows 10
How do you all like the hard tube cooling systems? still been debating whether i want to build one or not.
When you have a lot of big pictures, using an external site like Imgur works better.

I am about to build another computer soon
nice. wat u got in mind? i would just go with an AIO if u want liquid cooling, tho air cooling will do ya just fine most of the time
