Just finished building my new PC, so I thought I'd share some pics. :D

A few key components:

Ryzen 5 Hex-core 3.6 ghz
nVidia 1660 Super 6gb
16 gigs Corsair DDR4 RAM
MSI MPG X570 Gaming Plus Motherboard
1 TB Samsung EVO Pro SSD
2 27" MSI Optix Gaming 165 mhz curved monitors

Congrats! Looks good. :bolian: I think I have a few things similar on the insides with my current PC, but I am definitely still at one monitor. :lol:

I am really enjoying the new monitors! I didn't realize what a difference they would make compared to my old ones.

The RGB motherboard, RAM, and fans are fun to play with too. (always wanted those but never had them until now)

Nice build! Love the look of it! I'm thinking about building a new one for my wife with similar specs, not set yet on the GPU, but for the CPU, thinking of going with an 3700X. Was thinking maybe the 1660 or 2060/70. What case is that? Looks like it may be one of the MSI ones or Corsair she's been looking at.

Its actually not an MSI case. (I used the sticker that came with the mobo, lol)

It a Cougar MX330-G. Really nice case! Excellent cable management, solid construction, all black interior (like really, really black), full tempered glass side, excellent air flow and cooling options, and 4 USBs in front panel. All the nice options without the big price.

I have an external HDD, and a spare SSD still in the box. 1 TB is more than enough to suit me. :)
