Just built a new PC for myself, as follows:
- Corsair 200R case
- Noctua NH-U12S Ultra Quiet Single Tower CPU Cooler
- 32GB (2x16GB) Corsair DDR4 Vengeance LPX Black, PC4-21300 (2666), Non-ECC Unbuffered
- Intel Core i7 8700K, S 1151, Coffee Lake, 6 Core, 12 Thread, 3.7GHz, 4.7GHz Turbo, 12MB Cache, 1200MHz GPU, 95W
- ASUS PRIME H370-PLUS, Intel H370, S 1151, DDR4, SATA3, Dual M.2, 2-Way CrossFire, Realtek GbE, USB 3.1 Gen2 A, ATX
- 500GB Samsung 970 EVO, M.2 (2280) PCIe 3.0 (x4) NVMe SSD, Phoenix, MLC V-NAND, 3400MB/s Read, 2300MB/s Write, 370k/450k
- 750W Corsair RMx Series RM750x, Full Modular, 80PLUS Gold, SLI/CrossFire, Single Rail, 62.5A, 135mm Fan, ATX PSU
- GTX1050Ti (pulled from old PC)
Motherboard was chosen because I wanted a couple of PCI slots in addition to PCIe. A lot of new board only have one, if any, PCI slots. I need them for a couple of legacy cards I use.
PC is used for software dev and video editing/rendering mostly.........and of course browsing these forums...:-)
