    I had a build I made in 2011, same case but the white version.

    Gtx 580 (yes that old, not THAT 580, the old one by nvidia lol)

    These are CAD prices

    Case - NZXT Phantom $200 i7 2600K $400 p8-z68 Deluxe $250 Corsair vengeance 16gb (4x4gb) Corsair gold ax850 Optical drive (blu-ray) SSD HDD Corsair H100 CPU cooler $100 GTX 580 $500 Panasonic TH-50PZ85U (this is the plasma screen tv I originally had it hooked up to)

    That PC is still hooked up in the office, my daughter plays roblox on it. It’s hooked up to a 144hz, 1440p LG ultra gear monitor and that beast is still going strong. A couple case fans don’t work anymore, and I don’t care.

    Built this to play Diablo 3

    The fan controls on the case do still work though!

    “Covid 19 is back, the Zeta variant is highly transmissible, but without any real side effects. the only way to ensure humanity’s survival is to destroy it by assimilating it”

    “Assimilate today, we will all be the same. No more worry about being different. Being a different race, a different gender or a different sexual preference. We will be simply Borg instead. United and as one. Resistance is futile”

    “If we all assimilate, we can cut CO2 emissions by 70%! Assimilate today, save the earth”

    It’s pretty confusing

    “UHD features a 16:9 aspect ratio and is twice the resolution of full HD. In other words, two times 1080p, two times 1920 x 1080 pixels, that is 3840 x 2160 pixels. Having the same 16:9 aspect ratio means it is backward compatible with other HD derivates. However, both 4K and UHD can be shortened to 2160p to match the HD standard and therefore, companies use the terms interchangeably.”

    “If you think 4K and UHD are one and the same, I don’t blame you. I blame the companies that LOVE to use them interchangeably all the time. You pick up a Blu-Ray movie disc of a 4K movie and you will most definitely see an Ultra HD label on it. 4K is actually not a consumer display and broadcast standard but UHD is. 4K displays are used in professional production and digital cinemas and feature 4096 x 2160 pixels”
