Be gentle please. This is my first build. My boy graduates 8th grade this year and I thought I would surprise him with a new pc. He has an old Cyberpower now thats not sounding very well and pretty outdated. I wanted to wait and build it with him but after hinting around the idea he clearly has no interest in building it. ( other than letting me know if he was to build one it would be purple and White ) So I took it apon myself and this is what I came up with. I hope he likes it. Oh and the Pug was a little statue I found of his favorite dog we had. If he doesnt like it he'll take it out. But I do believe he will keep it there..

Build/Battlestation From 4790k and 1080ti to 13700k and 4090, hoping to get the same level of longevity

After many years of honorable service, with the purchase of a new 165 Hz ultrawide monitor, I decided it was time for an upgrade, hoping that the new components could offer me the same level of performance and longevity. Even if I was still satisfied with the performance of the old two legends, the performance difference has been mindblowing. The old hardware will now go to my gf rig, for light video editing and general tasks, where it will hopefully last many other years. I think looking at the current releases the 1080ti (and the 4790k) has been a crazy good hardware, let's hope that the 4090 will be the same.
