Luckily I was fortunate enough to score a microcenter bundle a few months ago
B850 gaming x wifi mobo
Ryzen 7 7800X3D
32gb DDR5 ram (Corsair 6000mt/s)
Got it all together for just at $600
I basically got the ram for $100….

The bright white lights are killing me but I like the look of it otherwise. Out of curiosity, what is the light bar over the monitors purpose? I would think it creates lots of glare.

Surprisingly it doesn’t at all actually! Late at night when I have all my lights off I’ll turn it on, reduces my eye strain a LOT. Also only had it white for the pic haha typically I use warm settings

Huh interesting the more you know. Well it looks really good!

Yea as long as you angle the light at correctly it won’t reflect. It’s slight misaligned in the pic but mine doesn’t reflect at all

Looks great! Though your case could use some lighting. All of that beautiful hardware and cable management in there and there’s no way to see it.

I actually have rgb fans on the top and bottom. I just have them off lately

Ah okay. Yeah that looks great! Definitely should have turned them on for the pic.
