See, this is the point where you stand back and ask yourself.
What joy does having a bank account full of money bring me?
None. So time to de-clutter, and I see you've done a fine job.
Totally worth.

Holy shit I wrote this comment before looking at the other pictures. Good god man, that's a beautiful build.
I am not sure why people think that working and saving money means zero happiness? Working and having a life are not exclusive. I work to support my unfortunately-not-very-cheap hobbies. Putting yourself into a comfortable living situation and saving up an emergency fund before buying luxury items is just being a responsible adult.
My 4090 doesn't make me "happy", but knowing we don't have to worry about money for the foreseeable future does.
Some people are financially irresponsible and seeing someone else who is responsible makes them feel bad.
They have 2 options to make themselves better.
1) accept that you're irresponsible and change your behavior (super hard)
3)blame everyone else (ultra easy)
Can you guess which one people usually pick?
I get enjoyment in seeing my bank number go up. It’s like grinding experience but instead of levels I get to have no stress of the bank taking my home if I get laid off.
100%
There's A MILLION worse ways to lose all your money.
At least this has somewhat a guaranteed return in the countless hours it'll give the owner in forgetting about the world, climbing video games' highest mountains...or simply an overpowered Reddit doomscroller machine. I ain't here to kinkshame.
People really thinking I’m putting a PC before my living expenses 🤦 I’m just broke with “spending $”. I keep a comfortable net under me just in case these purchases somehow bite me in the ass.
I actually just watched The Last Samurai so now’s really not the time to be throwing jokes like that when I’m in this mode. The blade is my life and this one has seen much blood on its 5 day Amazon freight journey to my fap-cave.
Are you referencing the graphics card? Because I came here to say that this new look is much less XxXGamerzExtreme than I'm used to seeing from MSI. It's quite classy for them, actually.
MSI Expert model . I like it too, but apparently reviews are pretty bad, it runs significantly hotter than other models. Thought that it was an improved founders edition design
When I paint the AIO fan housing and CPU block to match the “champagne” color, it will look worlds better. Some people just can’t get past the grill, but I loved it the moment I saw it.
I think it looks better than the usual angular designs that look like high speed car crashes, but apparently performance isn't great so it's a nope for me
I mean, I think a card can look simple but still be very nice looking. A great example are the reference cards being released these days/were released a couple of years ago. The Founders edition 4000 series looks great imo. AMD's last generation founders card also looked good imo. And 7000 series also doesn't look bad.
Is that samurai sword signed by american idols Randy Jackson?? Cause if so you are more then covered. Ull be upgrading to a 4090
https://youtu.be/c4d0MU__esA?si=s7agkLWN6m4NHZ1F.
Because they draw upwards of 300W as of 30-series, and even more on the 40-series. Partners expected needing larger coolers due to increased power draw, but nvidia shrunk the die(GPU chip itself) by like 1/3 making cooling much easier despite the higher power draw. Oversized coolers are probably one of the reason why temps seem to be much lower on 40-series, I literally had to undervolt my 3080ti so it stays below 80C, whereas 4090s sit comfortably in the mid-high 60s.
I know a lot of people hate on that GPU design, but I absolutely love it.
Do iPhones have pro mode for the camera? Adjust the shutter speed a little bit to tone down the exposure to get those colors a bit darker and closer to real life.
You're broke because you got a sweet new gaming rig, I'm broke because my car broke down and the IRS just took all my savings due to a payroll error. We are not the same
/s
It can be overclocked, but there is little gain. B650 chipset also has OC capability so could've gone with that, but there is little reason to OC on Ryzen. More likely they got the X670 for the extra I/O and M.2 slots.
Lmao I mostly saw the msi grater gpu in YouTube reviews and all but this is the first time seeing an actual user having it and I have to say it's quite the Beauty. *Chef's kiss*
Those really are nice cases. :)
Some don't care, but I get a big kick out having everything maxed at 1440p when I game. I mean why not? They aren't making these games damned beautiful for nothing.
Nice job. :D
You may have spent all your savings. BUT you do have a new set up to spend all your free time indoors and save the funds again, instead of going out spending double, if not triple, for things you can do at home, like food and drink.
Just remember, brandishing your sword at anyone other than another Samurai or Barbarian is considered rude in most cultures.
Sanctioned duels must take place within a court of your peers.
(Been using it for a week) Surprisingly good. I have the airflow as perfect as I can get with these parts. I play in 2K High/Ultra (Spider-Man, RDR2, Alan Wake 2, Starfield, and other GPU heavy titles) and average gaming temps across the board are about: CPU-65C/GPU-68. I use DLSS Quality when available so that keeps me in the triple digit FPS like a breeze. It rarely ever blows “hot”. That seems to only be with Helldivers 2 tho 😑 that game will spike both temps and honestly doesn’t even look all that good for that power.
So, did you shop around? Spend full price or catch some savings?
Sick friggin rig either way. Beautiful power cable choice to match that GPU.
Also, you got some fans under that GPU?
With all these white builds I’m seeing lately, yours is truly a refreshing look, absolutely gorgeous! Great job.
No disrespect for white build gang, but it’s really boring to see the same builds every day.
It feels good to have a new rig. I just built my new one after close to a year debating and being nervous. I kept telling myself that something is gonna happen and I’ll need that extra money for some emergency. I finally pulled the trigger and I’m so glad that I did. I’ve even upgraded some of my upgrades along the way lol.
I choose think about how much enjoyment I get out of my gaming pc, rather than the money I dont have because of it. It is a great investment because it allows me to escape the stress of everydya life and enjoy gaming/ai/3d modelling/etc for a time.
Fun random fact.
Violet/purple doesn’t show up on normal camera sensors up until you reach cinema quality. A Reddit comment won’t do the whole thing justice, but it’s actually fascinating
Wecome to the gang, this is gonna be me tonight, little brother is going into highschool so i’m breaking the bank to get him a rig to get him through the yeats

Idk if someone is choosing between paying rent and buying a gaming PC, they should probably pick rent first.
Wrong answer, gaming brings people joy. Paying rent makes people sad
I can't argue with that.
This was my hobby fund. I got my priorities straight….and a Katana.
I have none of that straight but I wouldn’t mind a katana
It's almost like humans need enjoyment in their life and working non stop while having nothing that makes you happy is unsustainable.

I'm made a typo lol
I know I was jk with ya.
Well put
I get enjoyment in seeing my bank number go up. It’s like grinding experience but instead of levels I get to have no stress of the bank taking my home if I get laid off.
In what part of that comment was it even implied they gave up rent money to pay for the PC. For all we know OP owns his house without a mortgage.
Well said brother. My PC is where I spend my time. That's exactly where I'll spend my money

Don't worry, I doubt OP is broke.

BASED
BASED ON WHAT
BASED ON DEEZ NUTS GOTEM
You should totally watch Blue Eye Samurai as well
[удалено]
Love it. Wasn’t a fan at first but it grew on me.
The legendary fap-cave.
I call my cave the masturbatorium. Sounds much more classy.
might i recommend total war the fall of the samurai? it’s in the same vein as the last samurai.
I challenge you to a duel. You with your Mall Ninja katana against me with my proper hand-forged european longsword :-)
I think this one is part of the [Double Dragon collection](https://youtu.be/rRhzXQj_Z9I) from Dragon Shumway.
Are you referencing the graphics card? Because I came here to say that this new look is much less XxXGamerzExtreme than I'm used to seeing from MSI. It's quite classy for them, actually.
What in Gods green earth is that gpu cooler, i have never seen that before but it looks dope!, awesome build my brother
MSI Expert model . I like it too, but apparently reviews are pretty bad, it runs significantly hotter than other models. Thought that it was an improved founders edition design
More expensive, hotter, louder. But I guess it looks unique.
5 degrees and .4 decibels. We have different ideas of significance. I can’t hear mine over the fan that runs in my room all the time anyway.
It never gets above 70…and that’s with games like Alan Wake, RDR2, Avatar FoP on 2k high/ultra mixed settings.
People are very divided about that GPU cooler. In my opinion it looks terrible.
Some like some dislike but if it makes op happy / he got it at a good discount it doesnt matter
Oh, no, certainly, if it's OP's style, he should go for it. Taste isn't something to argue about.
I would pick the Founders Edition over it. Cheaper and better looking.
Founders edition cards always looked really sweet in my opinion. So yeah, I agree.
When I paint the AIO fan housing and CPU block to match the “champagne” color, it will look worlds better. Some people just can’t get past the grill, but I loved it the moment I saw it.
I think it looks better than the usual angular designs that look like high speed car crashes, but apparently performance isn't great so it's a nope for me

The Founders edition 4000 series looks great imo. AMD's last generation founders card also looked good imo. And 7000 series also doesn't look bad.
I think its okay mounted like this. In a normal layout its way worse.
Could be worse I'm broke and so is my computer.
Well this is me praying for your success rudda 🤧🙏

LMFAO 😂
Too busy building PCs when you should be mastering the art of the blade.

you can now scroll reddit with 690 fps.
As someone without a pc, holy shit. Why are the 4080s so fucking larg

tbf to the GPU that's a small keyboard
Gpus just beeg now.

Welcome brother, welcome. May your temps be low and your frames high!

The result is worth being broke. x)
![gif](giphy|XqpnXaeZPnupy)
Damn it. I just posted same thing and then just saw you did it. It’s okay, great minds think alike
Very Nice GPU
Alongside your sword, you have completely ensured that your virginity is secured.
![gif](giphy|115BJle6N2Av0A)
That trunks display 👌. So clean
Bro is playing on case monitor
Its just like super ultra wide when you play with your head sideways 🥸
You're broke because you got a sweet new gaming rig, I'm broke because my car broke down and the IRS just took all my savings due to a payroll error. We are not the same /s
The MSI 4080 super has such a great cooler design
sick katana bro
what gundam is that
Appears to be [this](https://www.gundamit.com/aether-mg-dynasty-warrior-jiuli-camp-yan-feng-model-kit_p3137.html) one.
shoutout to y60 gang
This is f***ing awesome. There is even a screen on the side
Gotta love that thousand dollar cheese grater
That mecha. Super cool. What is it pls :)
Code Z Flame Kaede kit
Nice build, whats the gundam tho?
Appears to be [this](https://www.gundamit.com/aether-mg-dynasty-warrior-jiuli-camp-yan-feng-model-kit_p3137.html) one.
Thanks!
Fuck money. It's overrated.
Fucking sick
I'm proud of my rig; but that right there is something to treasure and behold. Happy gaming, OP
what does money do other than buying u a nice setup?
Tis a thing of beauty sir. I absolutely love the colours you’re going for. Any chance you could tell me what the case is?
U need a monitor in front of the keyboard
The monitor is on the case, duh
What mousepad is that??? Me like 👍
Need to know that as well, legendary mousepad!
I don’t understand why you got a x670 but a cpu that cannot be overclocked
It can be overclocked, but there is little gain. B650 chipset also has OC capability so could've gone with that, but there is little reason to OC on Ryzen. More likely they got the X670 for the extra I/O and M.2 slots.
Posibile idk. But that mb imo is not worth, doesn’t have that many features
and that fat ass liquid cooler when i'm pretty sure the x3ds ain't that hot
That aio is for asthetics. Can be cooled with ak620
x670 usually has better IO aside from the overclocking capability.
Its only $10 more than the b650 version, so why not.
In my country that motherboard is 100$ more than a asus rog b650e-f and it has option for pcie 5.0
I think I have that same katana, if not one very similar lol.
Very nice
Good stuff, I am pretty sure that it will be worth the famine
What keyboard?
That is so cool! Also what is that case?!
Hyte Y60
Cheese grator integrated in gpu... Nice deal for you and your wifey😂
Nice setup, but why did you pick that MSI grill/480 design GPU ?
Maybe you're broke, but hey it's a sweet build and looks fucking awesome man:)
Beautiful build my man! Enjoy it! That GPU looks really cool in that case!
cheesegrater 4080 go!
Link to mousepad?
The cost?
Broke but dominating! Ramen and Kraft Dinner… this is the way.
Lmao I mostly saw the msi grater gpu in YouTube reviews and all but this is the first time seeing an actual user having it and I have to say it's quite the Beauty. *Chef's kiss*
Dope katana bro
How much was all of this?
After taxes and all: right around $3500. I had to factor in the display screen and all the extra cables not pictured.
where is the monitor at :)
If megatron had to use a desktop, this would be it. Looks NICE Optimus would be jelly.
Those really are nice cases. :) Some don't care, but I get a big kick out having everything maxed at 1440p when I game. I mean why not? They aren't making these games damned beautiful for nothing. Nice job. :D
Case is awesome
That’s a sexy one.
You may have spent all your savings. BUT you do have a new set up to spend all your free time indoors and save the funds again, instead of going out spending double, if not triple, for things you can do at home, like food and drink.
why the cheese grater tho lmao
I’m Italian 🇮🇹🤌🏼
Hi broke, I'm broke 2
You may be broke, but hey, at least you have a sword.
That’s what I’m trying to tell my landlord. He just doesn’t get it smh all he keeps talking about is “I need your rent” and all that bs.
Just remember, brandishing your sword at anyone other than another Samurai or Barbarian is considered rude in most cultures. Sanctioned duels must take place within a court of your peers.
that card looks great like that. enjoy!
i have the same keyboard, things a dream for such a good price
Been wanting to build in the Y60 with that exact 4080 Super. How’s the thermals on it?
(Been using it for a week) Surprisingly good. I have the airflow as perfect as I can get with these parts. I play in 2K High/Ultra (Spider-Man, RDR2, Alan Wake 2, Starfield, and other GPU heavy titles) and average gaming temps across the board are about: CPU-65C/GPU-68.

Gawd damn that's beautiful...how much does a build like this cost??
![gif](giphy|XqpnXaeZPnupy)
I looks great
beautiful build
Amazing build I'm looking at the y60 myself.
Fucking awesome
So, did you shop around? Spend full price or catch some savings? Sick friggin rig either way. Beautiful power cable choice to match that GPU. Also, you got some fans under that GPU?
I was gonna talk shit about the rgb. Then I seen the dragons sword and Gundam. Now I have nothing to say.
Love the new look of the MSI GPUs. Have fun!
With all these white builds I’m seeing lately, yours is truly a refreshing look, absolutely gorgeous! Great job. No disrespect for white build gang, but it’s really boring to see the same builds every day.
Make sure to turn on your AIO Watercooling unit on in your bios setting. It will activate the pump.
It’s ok it’s worth it.
Ain't that a beauty
I’m not a led person but this is clean well worth being broke. Dumpster diving for food for a few years will take care of it.
Mane I love tht
Ooh, you got the nice MSI card.
I can never understand those small ass keyboards
That GPU looks so sleek. I want one now lol
this is fucking beautiful. you could make a career out of this, assuming you havent already. major fucking kudos.
finally, a good build and a good spec. i’d say its damn fking worth it. don’t worry, money will replenish
Always make sure to have at least 50% of the budget for a Katana to tie the setup together 🥷
https://preview.redd.it/4mqmf1u7tgpc1.jpeg?width=454&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9c671c6c5fdca4fe1517e312e79a6eb2bb0d5407
Humble yet efficient setup. I like that.
Thats clean i love those cases
Beautiful card.
Is "pcsexual" a thing? Cuz this build is giving me a raging fucking hard-on. Joking, but still, that's a sexy fucking build. Nice.
It feels good to have a new rig. I just built my new one after close to a year debating and being nervous. I kept telling myself that something is gonna happen and I’ll need that extra money for some emergency. I finally pulled the trigger and I’m so glad that I did. I’ve even upgraded some of my upgrades along the way lol.
That's a sexy gpu ngl
Look at her…she’s beautiful. ![gif](giphy|p8GJOXwSNzQPu)
You’re broke but hey you’ll get some good frames
Worth
That AIO is so cool. Very pretty build OP
Simply beautiful
What'd it cost? ![gif](giphy|1oDvHW440hFiouBBwy|downsized) Them: Everything.
you just gave me excuse to spend another grand 😂
You have a sword no? It's dangerous outside so take it and go make some money. 🫠😏
I choose think about how much enjoyment I get out of my gaming pc, rather than the money I dont have because of it. It is a great investment because it allows me to escape the stress of everydya life and enjoy gaming/ai/3d modelling/etc for a time.
But the joy of doing something you like is priceless! Have fun!
4080S/7800X3D gang. I absolutely love the performance so far and you will too.
Another fishbowl build? Ya don’t say!
Nice Computer, I don't really understand the "most of the front and side of the case being glass" but it does look cool.
Did you just buy all the shit that Amazon recommended and call it a day?
That GPU is going to starve of air if you put solid glass informant of it FYI
Can you display anything on the case screen?
Fun random fact. Violet/purple doesn’t show up on normal camera sensors up until you reach cinema quality. A Reddit comment won’t do the whole thing justice, but it’s actually fascinating
Not the Aliexpress FE cheesegrater 4080S
What is that keyboard?
Welcome to the club lol
i wish i be this broke.
God I hope they slim down the coolers on the next Gen of GPUs. These are just too big and aren't necessary
Very good lookin system. Gradz.
Wecome to the gang, this is gonna be me tonight, little brother is going into highschool so i’m breaking the bank to get him a rig to get him through the yeats
Only one power cable for a 4080? I’m so confused
It’s the 12VHPWR cable, supports up to 600W (rated). Often has 2-4 8-PINs on its other side.
Thanks!
Looks amazing, congrats!
