depillow 2 Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 Looks good to me Link to post Share on other sites
Dave 436 Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Looks good Schoon. Do you have a list of links that we could click and possibly mimic your build? Thanks! Link to post Share on other sites
Drashna Jaelre 159 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Other than I'm adamantly anti-AMD... it looks good. Though, I'd go with a Samsung 960 Evo over the WD. Better performance (not that it would matter that much, in this case) Link to post Share on other sites

depillow 2 Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Have you seen the trouble with the Ryzen processor mounting method? I watched two YouTube videos today on just that. Link to post Share on other sites
