This build is a comp I built a year ago, I just did a few changes.
Decided to go ahead and get the case i wish i had gotten before, the Genome II. That also meant going from a 240mm Aio to a 360mm Aio. I couldn't find the fans I had used before, so I got a new batch of 6 that i needed. I added 2x4gb ram. just to fill out the slots and to help cope with the system on the rare occasions eating nearly all of the previous 16gb ram. The Genome II case also included a bracket and pcie extension to mount the GPU vert, which was a nice bonus for aesthetic.
I have a feeling once I get a better GPU I'm going to be just fine for a while,
the ambient light setup is really nice.
This has only caused me one issue, the rare times I needed to get into Bios, it booted up FAR too fast for me to get in. That's not really a problem though is it?
Seems to hit its limit quickly on some games, I think it's more due to a lack of power since it draws power from the mobo and not from a cable.
Only thing I can say negative about this is just being petty. That would be I wish EVGA made colored cable packs for it.
Perfect size, but speakers are on the bleh side of sound.
Cheap, efficient, and durable. I'd probably just get another of this same keyboard, if i ever did break this one.
Overall amazing, a few issues though. First the liquid in the integrated cooling system is very visible as green through the tube on the cpu block Second the block's light is white which is fine since my build is blue and white Third wire management felt both easy and a pain all at once. easy because it felt thought out up until the fans on the front of the case, that big open area made it annoying to try to keep the cables from hanging in mid air to ruin the look.
They look great, run quiet, and work perfectly.
