I built this rig myself about 2 months ago and it looks absolutely amazing!

Case: NZXT H440 (white/black)
CPU: Intel Core i7 7700K (overclocked to stable 5.0 GHz)
CPU Cooler: Thermaltake Water 3.0 RIING RGB (360mm radiator)
Motherboard: Asus ROG STRIX Z270E Gaming
RAM: G.Skill TridentZ RGB 32GB (4x 8GB) (overclocked to 4200MHz)
SSD: Samsung 960 Evo M.2 NVMe (500GB)
HDD: WD 1TB (to upgrade later)
GPU: Asus GTX 750 Ti (please don't laugh...)
PSU: Corsair CX750M

Unexpected financial limitation lead me to buy the budget graphic card until I can later afford an EVGA GTX 1080 FTW2 (or maybe a 1080 Ti?) really not sure what I should do about it. I'm currently limited to a single 60Hz 1080p monitor so to be honest I could get away with a 1060 but putting that kind of watered down card into this sort of system just sounds...sacrilege. But this is coming from a guy with a 750 Ti in an otherwise high-end build XD you tell me.

Otherwise I'm very proud of this build and it looks absolutely stunning.... I'll post a picture once a more worthy GPU is placed. :)

^ Credit Card lol.

$2,500 would have the system I posted above. albeit similar but with a bigger and faster SSD NVMe and very possible better quality components. If I had your money when i built mine i'd have just enough to squeeze in 2 GTX 1080 Ti's in SLI (might have needed to borrow an extra $100 but worth it for that sexy aesthetic)

I paid exactly $1,400 for my setup, include a 1080 Ti and would have rounded that right in the $2,100 dept. Though if I'm honest a 1080 Ti is quite overkill for my current setup

(Going off of my local US component price)
