Re: Your Desktop (HARDWARE EDITION!)
Had a tough time picking parts but ultimately chose to splurge a little. Stayed up a couple nights to build it and had fun, especially when it went into a BSOD loop.
Everything runs like a charm now and im really happy. Although the cpu and gpu fans are horrendous and Im looking into maybe water cooling both soon.

The negative consequence of keeping your computer on your desk is that even a quiet system is easy to hear roaring under load.
