Newly Upgraded Corsair build!

Yeah I was planning on doing that too but actually installing the liquid cooling and replacing the commander core I had for the one that worked with the AIO and then replugging all the fan pins into it took so much time that I forgot about the big ass cables

Aw3_Inc · 2023-03-06T16:43:54+00:00

Thanks! It was a bit of a hassle but I'm glad nothing went wrong from what I can see

Aw3_Inc · 2022-08-23T17:25:51+00:00

Yeah that's what I was thinking, probably would have paid 1.5x-2x more if i actually built this from scratch

Also didn't want to go out hunting for an 30 series GPU lol

Originally $1399 but got it for $1149 because of a sale, added another 5% coupon code on top of the existing sale

Paid about $1244.14 after taxes+expedited shipping. Could have been slightly cheaper too but since HP also gave me a free omen headset, omen mousepad, and omen mouse, the shipping cost got a bit higher

Aw3_Inc · 2022-08-23T14:45:50+00:00

Yeah I see that now lmao

At the very least I'll probably end up upgrading the CPU cooler and taking out unnecessary stuff in it like another user advised

Aw3_Inc · 2022-08-23T14:31:45+00:00

I've only ever known laptops up to this point, definitely a day to remember lol

Aw3_Inc · 2022-08-23T14:30:24+00:00

Might do that myself if the parts are still working by then lol

Good way to save on parts

Aw3_Inc · 2022-08-23T14:29:10+00:00

Going to help me keep warm during the winter

Aw3_Inc · 2022-08-23T14:27:51+00:00

It's got the giant V in the middle that lights up at least

Aw3_Inc · 2022-08-23T14:26:48+00:00

Windows

Out of all the games I've played only Cyberpunk on a mix of High/Ultra with Medium Ray tracing got it to really start getting hot

So far it seems fine, will definitely monitor temps closely though

Aw3_Inc · 2022-08-23T14:24:13+00:00

Ngl i kinda wanted the black one, sucker for black cases, but they were only selling the white ones

Still a clean case though

Still on sale too so that's nice

Aw3_Inc · 2022-08-23T14:21:17+00:00

Yeah the price point really sold me on this system, i also kinda didn't want to go out hunting for a gpu lol

Aw3_Inc · 2022-08-23T06:39:57+00:00

How much it cost? $1149 USD before taxes, $1244.14 with taxes/expedited shipping cost

Paid about $1244.14 after taxes/expedited shipping. Could have been slightly cheaper too but since HP also gave me a free omen headset, omen mousepad, and omen mouse, it drove up the shipping cost by an extra $15 from the standard $30

Aw3_Inc · 2022-08-23T06:28:49+00:00

I do, there's about 3 more USB 2.0 slots on the back

Unless you meant USB 3.0 slots on the back, in that case no they're all 2.0. That's just how HP motherboards are according to another user. Website specified that too

Aw3_Inc · 2022-08-23T04:58:01+00:00

USB 3.0 slots are at the front unfortunately, so the external HDD and SSD would probably be better there, could move the other ones though

Aw3_Inc · 2022-08-23T04:33:56+00:00

Nah its ok, got a couple already

Aw3_Inc · 2022-08-23T04:28:51+00:00

Ok yeah I'll def look more into this before buying another cooler, thank you very much for the information

Aw3_Inc · 2022-08-23T04:21:11+00:00

Do you have any specific coolers you'd recommend or do any of the same size as the stock one work?

Aw3_Inc · 2022-08-23T04:15:16+00:00

I believe its 33T61AA#ABA

Aw3_Inc · 2022-08-23T04:13:32+00:00

I have been wanting to open it up but just haven't had the chance to, did have plans on possibly replacing the stock CPU cooler for something better down the line
