    Come on now, you know it would be awesome. Build in a mini-ITX case, set the RGB stuff to a nice purple or lime green, a little liquid cooling for a sweet overclock, and then let my daughter take it to college next year. She would have the coolest mac on campus.

          Actually went to maybe buy this Dell this morning. Didn't pull the trigger because the guy told me it had basically been run hard for the last 2 months, powering 7 4k screens on display. Probably going to build at this point.

                  This is what I ended up using. I kind of wish I bought the 650w power supply, but that particular Seasonic line is pretty good for the price. When I bought the RAM, it was $125. You can save a little bit of money if you buy a 7500 instead of a 7600k because you don't have to buy a CPU cooler.

                    You power usage with that build is only 197W, why would you go for 650 PSU? Or even the 550 you ended up with?

                    • Here is one I put together today. Anything seriously wrong with this? I'm not sure I need the CPU fan.

                          make sure the memory is ryzen compatible. i think there have been issues with that

                              The difference between a 7500 and 7600k for him would be practically nothing. He wants to play games then it does make a difference.

                              • the price difference is immaterial and the performance jump/potential is significant
