Description

This is my first build. I needed a workstation for programming and light gaming so I built this.

Haven't overclocked the CPU yet. Its working great for programming and other stuff. Minecraft and Fortnite runs smoothly on this build.

I had an issue with the HDMI cable. figured that I have to use the DVI to avoid driver issues. Also HDMI does not give 144Hz anyways so just use DVI cable instead.

Case: This cube is a little bigger than I thought. So it takes a good amount of space on the desk. But no complains on the airflow or the functionality. You can configure this case in many ways.

GPU: 1050TI is enough for me since I dont play too many games. Go as per your budget and gaming interest.

CPU: I use webstrom, Rubymine etc so needed a good CPU/memory combination. Thats why I went with AMD Ryzen 5 2600X. Not overclocked yet.

Keyboard: Really good Keyboard with clicky mechanical sounds. RGB is also good.

Could be Thermaltake ring LED fans. Or they might be some sort of attachment you can buy to regular fans. I saw it in a YT video from hardware cannuks. (however you spell that)

He included it in the list already, Its Asiahorse and I don't think it will sync to the MOBO

that's correct. It is from Asiahorse and does not sync with MOBO. You have to pick from ice blue, white and red colors.

I haven't tried overclocking yet on this build but i saw overclocking settings on the BIOS menu. Where did you get the info that this MOBO does not support over clocking ?

B-450 MOBO's also support overclocking, "just how the motherboard is constructed."
