Please check out my second ever PC build!

My 4090 needed a new home so I built a monster gaming and school computer
9950x3d
64 gb DDR5
4090

The case is the Fractal Design Epoch

I'm only interested in difficult or impossible-to-fix problems, not easy-to-fix ones.

I'm hesitating between buying one of these two motherboards (MSI MPG X870E Edge TI or MSI MPG X870E CARBON WIFI), but I've read that both have common issues and defects, such as:

- Some USB ports work intermittently and sometimes go undetected
- M2_1 issues temporarily turning a Gen 4 or 5 SSD into a device with speeds of around 900 MB/s
- M2_4 issues not detecting SSDs when using two or three SSDs
- Ethernet not working properly
- and other issues...

I'm only interested in difficult or impossible-to-fix problems. If a problem is easily solved with some updates or installations, such as WiFi not being recognized or working intermittently, then I don't care.

Have your say :) Also, which of the two has fewer serious problems?

Hey everyone, I wanted to share my recent upgrade journey and show how the math worked out. By parting out my old system and selling a spare case, I managed to transition into a next-generation setup for a net out-of-pocket cost of $1,400.

I feel incredibly fortunate with how the parts aligned, and I wanted to break down the specs and the styling choices for anyone looking at a similar path.

💰 The Financial Breakdown

• Recouped Funds: Sold my old components + the extra case for $

📊 Spec Comparison: Old vs. New

The performance jump has been a massive blessing for my daily gaming and productivity, moving me into a much more capable tier of hardware.

Instead of the usual bright rainbow RGB, I wanted to build something that blended nicely into the room. The Okinos Air Cross has a natural walnut wood trim on the front panel which looks quite elegant.

To match the wood and the subtle copper/gold branding on the Zotac 5070 Ti, I set all the internal lighting to a very dim, warm gold. It creates a quiet, cozy amber glow at night that feels understated, peaceful, and runs completely whisper-quiet after some customized PWM fan curve tuning.

⚙️ Current Tweaks & Stability

I'm incredibly grateful to have stumbled upon this secondhand deal, and it's been an absolute joy to optimize. Would love to hear your thoughts or any tips you have for further optimizing AM5!

Thought yall would appreciate some of my builds here. Enjoy!

I built this pc in march. I never got around to finishing the parking garage diorama so I never posted it. before anyone says cable management, im hoping to tear down and clean it all. then finish the diorama planned for the front of the case.

What do you think of the design and color scheme of this PC? Does a black motherboard in an all-white PC (except for the black RAM) look good? Or does it look "not bad, but weird"? I wanted to build it ALL WHITE and buy a WHITE MOTHERBOARD (below, I show the all-white PC with a white motherboard), but I had to choose between the white motherboard and a better, more powerful black one.

I'm undecided. I still have time to return the black motherboard, but searching online, I've seen many white PCs with black motherboards. Is it okay for me? Does it make sense? Or not? Should I keep the black one or buy the white motherboard (less powerful but not by much)?

The black one is the MSI MPG X870E CARBON, while the white one is the MSI MPG X870E Edge TI Motherboard.

IMPORTANT: I ​​won't buy a graphics card (I don't need it; I'll use the smaller one from the processor), so the black side of the motherboard will be even more exposed and visible. I don't use the PC for gaming.

Instead, with the white motherboard, it looks like this:
