Time to Build my New Rig: i5 8600k on a z370 aorus ultra gaming motherboard...

I woke up by the mailmal today I couldn't be happier as he arrived along with my 600w psu and this lovely cooler master case you see on the pictures. So it is time to build that thing finally, after researching for all the parts one by one making sure I won't have any compatibility issues and waiting for a long month to get them at my hands it is the time I will be able to taste some high speeds for editing and playing.

I first open both sides of the case and install the psu, cable managed the front panels io cables to the back of the box as I want the box to be an eye candy or as close as it gets to that, without unnecessary cables showing and being in the way of my air flow design. Keeping the system cool is crucial. Even though I do not plan to overclock it just yet.

Above you can see I have already installed the processor the Rams and the CPU cooler.
Intel i5 8600k
Cryorig H7 quad lumi and
DDR4 2x8gb 3200 G.skill Ripjaws for all my illustration needs.
I think that will do for the next 4-5 years. What do you think?

GPU's ain't nothing to joke about. Unfortunately I didn't bought a new one since I read that Nvidia is releasing the next gen of it's GPU's next month that will probably devaluate current ones at 30-40% so I decided to wait it a little bit longer instead I am going with my old one heavily underpowered but it will do for now but for it to handle the OC I am about to do it a new therma paste is needed and throughout cleaning at it's fan and coil. My goal is to get at least the Nvidia gtx 1070 and up but given that current price is at 470 and more this will do for a couple of months. I am sure I will manage to get it for 370-390 in after the new series releases.

Now that everything is Crystal clear and I have the cables I need at the right spots I am installing everything needed in the front side of the box. 2 120mm fans for intake 1 120mm fan for out take. The huge cryorig to keep my CPU cool fits perfectly on this midi atx but it does makes tricky to place some screws. Anyway I do manage to place everything nice and tight. The ssd's are placed on the back of the box so the build comes up exactly as I was imagining it.

Motivation is everything and this build was not going to be placed in my room in that mess my room had so far. So I made some extreme cleaning ahead of it coming to it's new home. Placed on top of the desk so I can easily arrange all the peripherals and monitor everything that I might wanted to tune was the logical place for it.

And here is a close up from the rig, so far I had a lot of fan building it. I think I did a great job at cable management and I am eager to get my hands on that 1070 or 1080 and stack it on it's pci express and be done with. At least for the next 4 years anyway.

So how do you like it? Do you have any suggestions? Do you own a 1070 1080 in mid contition you would sell for steem or SBD in a good price to me? If so feel free to send me a pm and talk about it.

Right now I am installing the software I need drivers and all that thing. Also some games of my steem library and I would really like to test some newest ones now that I can handle them.

Closing this I want to thank you all for your support here on steemit you guys rock. Best community I had ever joined in my life.
Thank you all and steem on.

Peace and out @skapaneas

Dope!Up and running!

Extreme Dope... I am in love with it. tempted to OC it just a little bit as of now.

Thanks for stopping by mate. :)

Pena ! Dwse pono twra AE & Premiere !!!

Χεχε θα του πιω το αίμα.

I'm practically drooling )))

A dream comes true... I wish you get a better one soon!

BOOM! Have fun with your new monster! The Best days look like this as far as I'm concerned :P!

Thank you man, I am on it. trying out some games as we speak. and it looks great. Kinda need the gpu but it can wait a little longer. Then I will put it to stress tests and some benchmarks to see if I have it set up the optimal way getting the maximum out of it :) thanks again.

I'm actually super excited because I'm planning to buy myself a toy as well!! However I do not possess technical knowledge so I can't build it myself as you did. I will have to do research first because I can't just blindly trust some random guy working at the store. Anyway, enjoy the toy!!

I can help you decide a budget and the cpu I will make sure to find you the parts you need. And if you are at Athens I will come for a coffee(which you buy :P) and I will build it for you.

Hey man thank you so much! I appreciate that! Coffee's on me of course. I will let you know soon. I do live in Athens by the way so I guess we're not that far from each other. Again, thanks!

I am the opposite. Fan of AMD and ATI. But not gonna lie this looks great.
Good thing you are waiting for next gen, maybe you will get one or get one previous gen on better price.

Yeah the idea is to get the 1070 for a better price. I don't think I need a better gpu than that anyway.but it is overvalued right now even as used.

Καλορίζικος :)

Cool case, and even cooler scarf you've got there.

How much did the case cost you? I'm saving up to buy a new desktop and I could buy a case like this!

Enjoy your gaming sessions ;)

Peripou 50 euro peige to case, Ypopsin einai plexiglass kai oxi psimeno gyali opws sta pio akriva montela.

Μια χαρά, οικονομικότατο για το design του
