Hell no, that's work! The custom cables are from a company called CableMod

Some dudes make millions playin ball, home chefs, barbers, every company sending them stuff for free.
Other dudes make bank off of nonsense, spend their lives traveling and bumping models.
Even more are just born into true wealth, genetic lottery.

I wouldn’t give up my wife and kids for any of it.

BUT, to be a 5’2 portly Floridian, who splits his time between cards, painting his little models, modding his rigs, streaming online, and curating his PCF thread? I’m jelly and live vicariously through you.

Thanks for the bump, but I'm 5' and 3/4" and lied on my license to hit 5'1"

So the Editor of Custom PC Magazine in the UK reached out to me and wants to feature this build in an upcoming issue of their magazine! Holy crap! Plus I get some Corsair Water Cooling gear as a prize as well!

@Anthony Martino you want to help design a gaming computer for a 14yo ?

@Anthony Martino you want to help design a gaming computer for a 14yo ?

What did you need?

 

[Copper44]

What did you need?

Just haven’t kept on things lately. It will be a birthday present in August. I’m hoping components will start to be available by then. Thinking Ryzen. He plays things like Ark Survival and has a Oculus VR headset.

Are you looking to just have me give advice on what components to buy to build one, or are you trying to make one with a theme and want advice on that?

He says “retro futuristic”, which seems to be a oxy moron to me?

Well, games like Fallout have a retro and futuristuc theme, with robots, lasers, etc but also a 1950's nuclear era vibe to them

I use JMMODS to customize a lot of pieces inside the system, but he is usually backlogged a month or so with production

Here's some concepts

And here's an example beyond my capabilities that employ that sort of design (although you could still do the retro future design on a simpler scale)

Wow! That’s impressive. Although your builds are also very impressive. I have until August to compile everything. Wanna shoot out a couple GPU recommendations to keep my eye out for?

In 6 months time whatever I tell you now will change

Presently the supply is very low and demand high. The $1500 MSRP graphics cards I sold awhile back are selling on eBay for close to 3k now

Even the $500-600 MSRP cards are fetching 1k-$1,200

Hopefully by the time you are ready to buy the market will have normalized
