Overall ok BUT some cheaper parts need replacing with quality ones

This rig is not without flaws but overall it is well put together (cable management is good nothing loose although I reinstall a few must of components, possibly through shipping). You have to replace the aio cooler's fan with one that actually creates static pressure or your CPU will never cool down (otherwise constant throttling and very early failure). The reason I give this 3 stars is the memory and the cooler. I think using such a crappy fan to cool a critical component is a huge oversight (nor can it be controlled by the motherboard when shipped AND it can't be due to a proprietary fan control connector). Since the rest of the components were high-end branded items (mine came with an Asus graphics card, an Asrock motherboard, and a Gigabyte power supply), the storage in my OLOy was something I had never heard of, and after I looked at him, I wasn't impressed. It's also quite slow at around 16 at 3000MHz. Honestly, I didn't expect 3200MHz to leave the monstrous processor these days, or at least lower the frequency to 3000MHz. Over time I will replace it with faster memory and more. If it wasn't the only way to get an rtx 3080 at a reasonably reasonable price I wouldn't buy it, but overall I'm very happy to have a working machine again.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Long wait
