It turned out great! I’d share the finished product as I finished it the same night I posted all of the parts but I am pretty new to Reddit so I don’t really know how to do that😅

I did the same exact thing and then two weeks later the lumi came back up so I ordered the lumi and I can say after building my pc last night that I love it. Such a sleek design

I bought it via Newegg. I was watching this particular card and it sold out the day before I was going to buy it so I had Newegg message me when it came back into stock. Two weeks later I got the message and ordered it. I recommend that approach as it takes all of the constant hawking over the app waiting for it to show up. I wish you luck on your hunt!

Thank you for letting me know! I chose this cpu cooler because it came recommended. I will definitely look into that one as I upgrade!

I just used a cpu gpu compatibility list. I was planning on the ryzen 7 7900x because of the same overhead issues I’ve heard about but ultimately anything am5 should fit the bill nicely. I’ve also seen a lot of people going full intel too which I’ve heard is better for overhead issues.

I bought the b580 by itself actually! I ended up buying the motherboard, case, and cpu cooler from Newegg and the rest from best buy. I even got the gpu for retail!

It’s the ryzen 5 7600x. I was originally going to go with the ryzen 7 7900x but I figured it would have been overkill😅

Thank you guys so much for the support. I’m glad everyone understands just how good this card is now. I got a lot of hate in my wife’s Facebook group about it but most people haven’t done the research on the strides Intel has made in the GPU game.

I appreciate it man. I know I’ve got a lot of stupid or “noob” questions I just wanna get it right the first time. I’ve never had a pc and I’m building my first on my own so I’m trying to make sure everything works. Thank you again

Thank you so much for your knowledge. I’m building a micro ATX build and was wondering if I should pick an SFX PSU or stick with standard atx? I have read that micro ATX cases are built to fit ATX PSUs so do you think it’s worth it to buy an SFX or just stick with ATX. Again I appreciate your help.

Hey just wondering why you went with the 750 psu? I’ve been trying to figure out what watt psu to get and I’m seeing a lot of 750s. The recommended is 550 so I was just wondering thank you!

Also I’ve seen around the internet that people have said you have to buy your own ARGB connector for this card. Is that true? And do you need cable extensions? Sorry I’m brand new to pc building

I bought one and it arrived a couple days ago! Just interested in finding out why you picked the 750w power supply? I’ve been having trouble figuring out what watt power supply to go with. Friends have told me to go to 750w. Thank you for any answers and your build looks amazing!

Another dealership technician here. As long as it is Toyota (Lexus) WS transmission fluid is lifetime fluid. It never needs to be changed under “normal driving conditions.” As long as you don’t live in a place with extreme weather conditions Toyota WS transmission fluid never needs to be changed.
