I love building computers when I get the chance to. Here is my current rig, which received a small update for 2021 – a new mousepad and keyboard, 16GB additional RAM and another 1TB SSD. At the moment I’m running a green theme to match the color of my plants. This is the little room I’ve spent a lot of time of my life in:
The computer was built back in 2018, so the CPU is a bit outdated. But, even though something like the Ryzen 5900X is tempting, I find myself happy with what I have at the moment and will wait longer until I update it again. It handles games like Red Dead Redemption 2 and Cyberpunk 2077 without any issues at all. The full hardware list is the following:
