@unclepropski Yessir. I could not have done this on my own. Glad to have friends who have shit like this laying around from their previous builds. Some cash on my end and some bourbon sweetened the deal, but we're always helping each other out
@unclepropski Looking good! I just refreshed my build, not as new as yours, but a buddy had a lot of stuff laying around:
i7-7820x
X299 Micro board
2080 Ti
Intel 1tb nvme ssd
32gb Kingston HyperX
Bought a new Corsair 3500x case to fit
Got me more recent for photo and video editing
Life has been a fucking kick in the balls for the last two years, and the past 6 months, while still a pain, have been better. Followed my heart, broke off the toxic relationship (post divorce). Went to therapy. Took their advice after identifying things and put myself out there
Like I said, life is too short to not try shit just because it's not the norm. Jumping into a new relationship? Bonkers. Most wouldn't. Re-entering the dating pool in my 40s was frightening, but nothing a little self-deprecating humor and beard selfies couldn't fix 😂
