Mid-Game $2000 white/gold build
By 7heo
Not sure when this build becomes available exactly, but I've been able to rock it for some time now, and in case you're into White/Gold, it looks really great; especially with the right RGB configuration.

Cabling
Sleeved Plastic Plain White
Fans positioning
The AIO cooler goes in front, after removing the fan that is there. I moved that fan on the front of the top rail inside the case.
RGB Configuration
I use the following values:

  • R: 255
  • G: 155
  • B: 55
  • Light effect: Breathe
  • Speed: slider about half way
Performance
3D Mark (Time Spy)

Overall Score: 5953
  • Graphics score: 5749
    • Graphics Test 1: 37.43 FPS
    • Graphics Test 2: 32.97 FPS
  • CPU score: 7453
    • CPU Test: 25.01 FPS
Notes
  • To reduce the build to $1750 (and not affect the performance TOO much), you can opt for 8 GB ram sticks, and a Ryzen 1600X (which brings the whole build to $1720 actually)
  • With the same $1750 build as in the previous point, the X62 can be replaced by the X63 (nicer visual) if the case fan is moved all the way to the back of the top rail.

I will add further notes here as people leave comments or as I further customize this build to fit several pricepoints/targets
