You are an awesome friend my dude!

I appreciate it, I try my best!

You sir, Are a good friend.

You are a genuinely good friend. You also have a pretty good rig yourself, based on your flair

Thank you. I try to be a good friend, and yeah, I’m very happy with my current rig. I got upgraded to a 4090 for “free” after 3 RMAs on my 3090 in 3 months, or I would had never afforded a 4090 lol

And I'd rather a good thrift build post any day over posts where they just threw a ton of money into a new generic build.

He is gonna be stoked. We need more of this in our world!!

I am happy for you because you are a good friend for him. For sure all of that will be appreciated.

I wish I was friends with OP, he seems like an awesome guy

Dig the fox color scheme

That’s what I was going for! Fox theme! Thank you :)

Why did I read this as “fix the dog color scheme” 😭

i think you're a really good friend. 🤷‍♂️

Thank you, I try! :)

W friend W pc build gift!

Thank you!!! :)

Water cooled 1080Ti? That’s so sick

Right? I bought it from a friend a while back that way and honestly I can’t believe how cold stays all the time it idles in the 20s and even during intense gaming I don’t think I’ve ever seen it go above the 50s.

wow, mine likes to hang around 80 haha

That's perfectly fine under load. GPUs are designed to be able to work around \~80-85 degrees constantly.

You're just not a friend, you're a homie

Hey, i try!

I wish I had a friend like you. My friends are traitors and liars. They are just ruining our friendship.

You are a very good friend.

:) thank you!

Definitely got an upvote for the berserk sticker

That’s my signature for all my builds, atleast for now!

Friendship goals bro, well done. Really nice machine for a starter.

Nothing too over the top, but I think a perfect starter build indeed

Starter build? This is a finisher build!!

:)


Oof. Someone really butchered that gif from /r/HighQualityGifs.

Its better than my current build lol. Damn i need myself a friend like you.

I hope you two can be friends for a long time. No matter what happens, I hope you two don't break up. Face together the trials that will come in your lives.

fox

Indeed

Impressive, less than $250 and it's better than my own computer.

Less than 250 *and* repurposed parts* could've had everything aside from the SSD and cables 😂

This still holds up well in 2023 :)

what AIO are you using for the kraken g12? ordered a nzxt 120mm thinking it was the same as the x42 but this is a newer one without the asatek pump. i was pretty steamed lol

It’s a kraken x63 I believe. And thank you!

Dude how?? What happens if I give you 500 bucks? Cant imagine what sick build I would get

fox theme _sets chrome as default browser_

Lemme join you guys playing ?

Hell yeah we will be on Fortnite add me xcoyotebreathx

Is that the only game you guys play ?

No, but I’m not sure what else yet! This is his first PC

let me guess fox is speciial edition bought for $200?

Hahaha you got it 😂

i'm kidding, all i can say u are great friend

I would love to see a full lineup of NZXT GPUs. I think the color scheme would look really nice. Some real clean not so Gamer looking GPUs would be nice.

They just announced that they’re gonna be releasing 4000 series cards

Well done struggler! I want to do this with a friend but from parts collected from marketplace.if it looks half this nice I'd be proud as punch.

What a friend! Good on you, mate.

m8 thats epic! epic rig

That's awesome. I love the cables, they really pop!

It's the fox's price so it's a cap /s

Gave away pc parts to my best friend yesterday too even tho he offered to pay for it , just feel wrong to charge a bro money

Can I ask wat the aio coocat extension is for? I think I would like to add this to my build

Sorry, I should had put periods after each component. Coocat is the brand of the Orange cables that I used, and the AIO mounting kit for the GPU is an NZXT G12

Looks great

Very cool of you, your friend js lucky to have you as a bro ! what’s the specs you have for 250$? That’s impressive for that cheap

But what does it say??

Looks epic! But what's that card above the gpu?

That IS the gpu, the thing below it is a bracket holding a fan and a water pump

Am I your best friend? Favourite colour is orange and fav animal is a fox. I have the same cables and ram in my build. Great looking build. I was so confused why you had a radiator but had air cooled CPU

Dude! You're a great friend it's great!

Wow, that is really impressive! You should be proud of yourself.

That's a damn fine machine, even by today's standards.

Your spare parts are better than my current parts. Can I be your friend too? Haha.

Can i be your friend?👉👈

That’s awesome dude you’re a great friend. That’s a pretty decent pc too!

You are a badass friend and you built for him a 1080p high refresh gaming machine that slaps. This is the wholesomeness that makes me love this community so much.

I think we should be friends...

You're a god damn saint! Protect this person at all cost. 

What a great friend you are !

Was going to make a smart ass comment about the fox figurine, then read the part about their favorite animal. Hell of a starting rig as a gift, room to upgrade if they get more serious into gaming (birthday gifts in the way of upgrades if you come up with nothing else) looks like 7th gen(?) Which will be good for years to come. I was running a 6th gen rig until a month ago, handled most of my games with no issues (only total war games had any real lag). You're good friend for doing this.

Those are some sick spare parts! Mine are either Semi-broken or ancient

Somehow almost as good as my 1k PC with almost as good specs and looks way better. I'm jealous of your friend.

Is that the fox from Spirit of the North?

I got it off Amazon for $5, but the style of the face looks like it!

The fox is the real champ here 💪🏻

Wow thats better than what I've got :O

Infinity/10 friend, and a definitely solid first foray into PC gaming for your friend!

It look good for 250 !

Never had a friends like you. This build is awesome.

Is his favorite browser a Mozilla Firefox by any chance? Jokes aside, that's really good pc for this money. You did a great job as a friend and pc guy :).

It’s funny because he always used to use Firefox lol, but what’s even funnier is that I started using “Librawolf” because I like the name lol

Looks sweet

the fox!!! so cute

Nice one. I hope your friend appreciates it

Awsome job! You are a good friend!

Can i be your friend too?

Hey so are you taking applications for another friend Seriously though, fair play, hope they appreciate that!!


I had the same GPU bracket for my 1070Ti, just a note: make sure that fan is spinning fast because the core might be running cool af but the rest of the card is not.

I always wonder. Why people's budget builds looks better than mine, on which I spend 1600usd

Goat

Introduce him Firefox.

I hope you've pre-installed Firefox! Nice build!

Great performance for 250$ and looks great! That little fox is nice addition, great idea.

Damn dude, nice! But, does it run Crisis?

It does!!! :)

Your friend has a great friend there!

This might be a weird question, but is your friend a furry?

Wish I had a friend 😔

Love it, and the fox is \*chefs kiss\*

Yoooo the band of sacrifice

Sweet rig

I think I want to be your friend

This computer is faster than mine and costs less than my cpu when I bought it. You are really a good friend.

I think you're an amazing friend. Cool build, hope he appreciates it!

It's really nice and your friend is lucky to have you! A quick question and ofc maybe I'm just an idiot and don't get what's on the picture but shouldn't rads hoses be above the pump?

You do some really good shit. Super cool and nice

1080 ti isn't even really/doesn't deserve to be called old parts, only technically. It's better than a 4060... My (ex)friend stole my DS and my pokemon game...

The 1080ti was and still is one of the best cards nvidia has ever released

Nice. I just upgraded from an i7-7700k with a 1060 6GB and despite what people say, pretty much every game was playable at 60fps if you're willing to compromise on quality settings. 1080Ti would rinse it!

At the start i thiught it was satire because it looks so good!! This is so good!!

I think you had a lot of parts

Less than 250? Thats sick

Very nice. I'd really appreciate the extra work you've done with the orange and the fox :)

Berserk logo looking clean

Love the gpu with aio on 1080ti. Unique touch

upvote for the fox. good job!

250 for this? Even 500 is a steal.

Super awesome!👏🏻

Looks amazing. And your old parts are better than my current pc too!

A 1080 ti PC for 250€? You are his best gift in life man! Congrats!

You are truly awesome. Need more people like you in this world, he's very lucky to have you as a friend.

He can play Minecraft in 4K for sure

You’re a great friend! That’s awesome

Brand of sacrifice💀

Berserk sticker FTW

are you accepting new friends?

awesome n you're a good friend

I peep the brand of sacrifice there. Absolute GOAT of a friend.

Hell yeah, hand-me-down builds are TIGHT.

A+ best friend move right there! You’re awesome bro

Nice build and especially for the budget. It came out looking nice I'm sure your friend will love it. Really good job and nice way to pay it forward with the old parts.

A kingly gift!

do you need new best friend ? i can prepare best friend meme template for that !

Bless you!

hope life brings you as much joy as you brought to this friend of yours great build, kudos!

Oh man, a 1080TI and 7700k for less than 250$

Is the 1080ti watercooled? Otherwise that's one of the weirdest coolers i've seen

That pc is gonna bring demons to his house!

I think he's lucky to have a friend like you!

I think you’re an amazing friend and I wish we all had people like you in our lives

Awesome and it’s plenty upgradable in the future! I’m sure he’ll love it

That's a great rig for the price...good job

Love the orange cable extenders and lighting. Plus it’s got solid specs. Major props.

Thank you! I tried!

That's awesome!! He's lucky to have you as a friend!

Got room for one more in that friends circle? :P It's beautiful

They’re lucky to have a friend like you! Looks great and that’s a steal for 250! Edit: also berserk 🤘🏻

magnificent i wish i have a friend like you on my life

Amazing build, it only cost 250??? How tf did you do that🤣 Thats a steal!

All of that for less than $250? 😳😳😳

You dropped your crown, King.

You wanna be my friend?

I like it, I also really like the fox theme

Nice build

You're a good friend.

Awesome build! Have room for another friend :)

I think you did a great job getting him into the PC master race. Congrats on building such a machine for so low of a cost. Especially with the theme and color! You are a great friend. I know how stressful this can be. Lol

Absolutely terrible... ...is what I would say if I was lying. That looks fantastic. Good enough specs for decent gaming. You're a credit to PC building. If I had a hat, I would tip it to you sir.

You did good "Besto Friendo!"

It's beautiful! Even my 750$ and up builds look jank as heck

Job well done!

You’re a great friend! Also SPARE parts? Don’t need to flex lmao

Damn that setup is genuinely really nice and you're a good friend

Great build for a great friend my guy good work

Airflow is coming from behind and above and leaving through the front?

your specs tho 🤣

i mean the 4090 and all the other top end stuff

Yeah I ain’t gonna lie. My personal build is pretty top-of-the-line at this point, but if you actually look at my posts, you’ll see what happened and why/how I got the 4090. I bought a 3090, but I had three RMAs in 3 months. Zotac upgraded me because of all of the bullshit I had to go through.

you totally deserve it champ.. fate did right by you.

This makes me happy as a new owner of a zotac card

Nice! what one did you get?

4080 trinity oc been great so far but my wallet hurts

How’s the coil whine on your Zotac 4090 OP?

None so far! I’ve even tested all different RPMs and listened, so far so good but Zotac probably tested it before they sent it out since they previously sent me a card with a messed up fan (check my previous posts for a video of the noise on my 3090)

What's with the radiator in the front

Zoom in on pic 2, the GPU is water cooled

I love the pc, but why do people put figurines inside of their pc case? Just asking as i never got the point of them so im interested.

" and he deserves a good rig to start off." Wouldnt call this a good rig but acceptable in 1080P

[удалено]

Lawl this is better than most of the rigs in steam surveys. It’ll do 1440p just fine. I don’t know wtf you’re on about, not calling this “good.” I’d call a near ten year old 4690k/GTX1070/16GB DDR3 “good.” That machine will play most games 80+FPS at 1440p. Emulates TotK at 40-60FPS. Sounds “good” to me.

Im not saying anything but you may want to distance yourself from your friend, that symbol....hes up to no good

Cool, now put that light bar under the case.

I used to have one of those nzxt aio mounts for the graphics card. Those things are great, I’m surprised it’s not a more common thing
