@renee The new setup looks great! I probably would have gone for a liquid AIO as they are no fuss and simple to install but if the air cooler works then great! I have a 9850X3D and just like your CPU, it likes to run super hot! I rarely see over 70c whilst gaming using a 360mm AIO.
@MasonReact@DrewJuarez Your post makes no sense, you talk about plugging in directly into the motherboards blue or red ports for the “fastest speed” which will be USB 3.0 and then recommend a cable that is only rated for USB 2.0. Not to mention most controllers generally only support USB 2.0 anyway.
@astrrixbtw This isn't exactly true and depends on your audio setup. If you are listening to hi-res audio at 24bit/96kHz from @qobuz for example then you have actually downgraded your bit depth and sample rate, not upgraded. Maybe stick to optimising PC's and not giving out bad advice dude
