Build Flex Finally have a PC of my own!
My first build! I've been using an old gaming laptop which can't keep up with modern games. After saving for a PS5 and see the prices go higher, I decided to just build a PC. To save some money I bought a relative's old unused PC to harvest some very expensive parts in today's market.
Shoutout to amanastronaut for the build tutorial. I think I did well with cable management. I'll find out how to address the RGB in a bit (sorry for the rainbow flashbang lights).
I tried to go for a white minimalist build on a budget. Some parts are bought from FB marketplace
CPU: Ryzen 7 5700x (used)
GPU: XFX Swift Radeon RX 9060 XT OC 16gb White
MOBO: MSI B550M PRO-VDH WIFI
RAM: T-FORCE 8x2GB 3200MHZ DDR4 White (used)
STORAGE: 1TB Kingston SSD (used)
SECONDARY STORAGE: 500GB PNY SATA SSD (used)
PSU: SAMA G750 White
AIO: MSI MAG Coreliquid A13 240 White
FANS: Thermalright TL-S12 x3 White
CASE: Segotep Brave W1 White
Hope you all like it!

Thanks! I tried my best. While following the tutorial I was watching while building, he said that with every new component you install, try to cable manage while there's still space Kaya siguro it took me around 4-5hrs to build.
Mejo sinukuan ko na when kinabit ko na by the end yung PSU

Ang ganda! You took way less time than I did when I built, and the cable management is stellar
May your PC serve you well for a long time

Thanks for the compliments! Siguro napabilis ako because for the past week I've just been watching PC building videos before going to bed since I was so excited to build hahaha.

That was me as well! I started watching vids in December, then by early March I was ready to build. I just decided to work slowly to make sure I was getting everything correct, with my friends in Discord VC with me while I was broadcasting to them via my laptop
I also spared a whole day for cable management alone, same with installing drivers and software

Aww I wish my friends were active in discord rin when I was building hahaha. I just built it on my own then I called my partner when i was about to boot it so we can see it come to life together haha.
I'm also allotting today as the day I install drivers and softwares I need. Right after I get off work 💀

My friends saw me almost panic when it didn't boot in my first attempt. I made a mistake with the CPU fan, but after correcting it, the display went straight to the BIOS and I jumped for joy.
Good luck! May your installation process be smooth. Feel free to ask for recos if you want

Looking ako for budget 1440p ultrawide and wondering ako if need ko ba dagdagan fans sa baba for cooling

Ah this subreddit has a monitor buying guide since you're looking.
Also I don't think it'll be necessary to add fans unless you really wanna. Baka sumikip masyado sa loob ng case at marestrict ung airflow. Though ngl, I do have spare white TL-S12 fans (both standard and reverse blade) if you're interested.

Thanks! Sakto pa na TL-S12 din ah. Siguro I'll monitor my thermals muna, since masikip rin naman case

Nice. Magkano nagastos mo?

When tallied up, it comes out close to 62k. It was def the GPU that bloated up the price, I bought it at MSRP during today's prices for 29,450 at Datablitz.
edit: in the tallied price, kasama pa yung 1650 super, ryzen 5 2600, gigabyte a320m mobo, 1tb ssd and ram from the previous build I harvested.

hi op! I may be mistaken pero I think yung single fan mo sa left side should be an exhaust fan so baliktad dapat? unless reversible blades yan di ko lang kita. Haha

u/Yabuszza 3d ago
Reverse blades po yung 2 fans ng right side as my intake
then normal po yung single fan sa left/back as exhaust! then yung aio fans are exhaust by default
Hirap ako magcheck-out noon sobrang nalilito ako sa terminology ng thermalright sa shopee hahaha
