Performance-wise, this machine is very fast.  As my main machine, I went from an AMD 3900X to the AMD 7900X CPU and I notice a difference.  The GPU in my pervious machine was the Sapphire Nitro+ RX 5700X and my new GPU is the Sapphire Pulse RX 7900XT.  Big gaming upgrade for me!  More pictures on my website if you are curious.

The build is looking really cool.
Corsair has now fancy magnetic fans but you managed to get those cables managed!

Wine Celebration?

I was so starving after my build it was like... "is Domino's Open?"



EDIT: BTW You have so much good photos in your website.

This one brought me so many memories..

Thank you @johnnyenglish .  I created that website early on in my modding career when I found that other sites hosting your photos couldn't be relied upon.  Some went belly up and there went your photos.  I have paid for my domain for around 23 years now.  I use it for vacation websites, hosting pictures for others, supporting two forums (Wine Lovers Forum and our Springfield Glen HOA forum).  

Tonight will be a wine dinner with a few neighbors coming over.  We do this a few times a year and we are talking about $100+ bottles.  I'll be grilling tonight and it's all about the nice dinner and wine as we catch up on each others lives.

"Vertex GX-1200W 80+ Gold PSU" You could go with 750 watts, or 850 watts worst case scenario,  1.2kw sounds like a waste of money to me Children are hungry in Africa
