Hey guys, I built myself my very first decent gaming rig back in December of 2016 and wanted to share some specs/pics on how it all went and what's inside as well as showcase a little about how far it has come over the recent years with some nice little upgrades/additions.
Initially this is how I had it set up (below)
Let me know what you think. I would love to hear any and all feedback on things I could improve (if anything).
Still slightly older, but more of my current setup than the previous video I initially posted, don't have one of the up to date setup just yet. Will update post when I manage to get around to recording one.
