Computer is nice, but I'd rather have specs than pics.
As for the "gaming" desk and "gaming" chair, I've said it before and I'll say it again, it looks like unnecessary, overpriced shit. :P

Yeah ik and I agree that the price really is all in the name. But I got it for about $100 off the normal price which to me felt like a fair price and I don't really have the cash for something good like a herman miller.
As for the desk, it is actually pretty good and the top mouse pad cover is washable which is nice. I just wanted something with metal legs to be able to support more in the future. Plus the top mouse pad cover is still thick enough to easily write on for my college work so I'm satisfied overall.

Can't see your parts list, but congrats on getting a 1080!

Thanks for pointing that out, fixed it. A little tired today from running errands sorry.

Don't worry about messy cables or RGB lighting. The 1080 is the main attraction :)
Congrats and I hope you get many years of gaming out of it. Or until Nvidia comes out with the 1180 and you're "forced" to upgrade :)

Nice rig! Congrats!
If only I had the money to upgrade mine, lol.

Very nice rig, but ugh, those cables are setting off my OCD something fierce. O.o
Congrats on the new gaming PC :)
My old rig's cables (to show you what they could look like):

Yeah its ugly right XD. Some of the cables are just such odd lengths that I have no room to actually route them behind the mobo tray. And that fact that this case has no psu shroud kinda sucks too. Maybe I'll be able to get one fabricated at some point and get at least a few custom cables to replace the ones that were giving me so many issues.

It just saddens me to see such nice components buried in cables. ;_;
As long as they don't bother you, they don't matter, though. ;)

Well for the moment it is turned away from my chair so that eases the pain XD. Just wish custom cables weren't so dang expensive.

Damn, that setup is probably worth more than my car ;)
Nice rig, congratulations

After what felt like an eternity of doing research, waiting for parts, and tightening what felt like a million screws it is finally done. My first true gaming PC setup is now up and running.
While it doesn't look all that pretty and isn't covered in fancy rgb, it has been very functional which is exactly what I wanted for my first build.

Yes that is my bed on the right. My room is the size of a walk in closet :(
And in case you were wondering why the wires are a mess, the cabes I had to work with were really awkward in length. Some were way too short, others were too long and none were just right. I might get some custom cables at some point in the future, so if anyone can tell me whether those are worth it or not I'd love to hear what you have to say.
Well after reading through my crap I bet you're wondering where the celebratory gibs are. After all thats what you're REALLY here for right? Well here they are! http://www.sgtools.info/giveaways/2bc8382e-fd6d-11e6-96a2-fa163ee2f826
Just some bundled indiegala games with basic sgtools rules. Don't expect anything phenomenal, I did just drop about $4.5k into this setup
