Wassup guys,

Thanks to everyone's comments & critic in my previous post about my proposed build,
https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/5279514 

I finally built my PC during 11.11 sales tho it took me a month to post it up as I was away for a while and then were doing some memory XMP tweaking when I got back. Haha.

Anyhow during the months in between, my specs have largely changed somewhat as below:

Core i7 12700F + RM1 stock cooler (unchanged)

Asrock B660M PG Riptide (15 power phase goodness & works with 4x RAM at XMP)
https://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/B660M%20PG%...ptide/index.asp

Teamgroup Delta RGB 3600MHZ 8GB x 2 (saw review it can do 4x 3600MHZ RAMs at XMP)
https://www.teamgroupinc.com/en/product/delta-rgb-ddr4

Where all three were reviewed to be working at full unlocked PL2 comfortably, with 4x 3600MHZ DDR4 ram. Plus aftermarket cooler.

Manli Geforce RTX 3060Ti (the manliest card brand whatmore can I say HAHA! But at RM1598 its one of the cheapest)

FSP HV PRO85+ 650W 80+Bronze (this is the newer 85+ version)

Tecware Nexus Air TG (unchanged)

24" LG 24MP400-B (budget IPS monitor, meh 75Hz refresh rate)

Parts reused:
256GB Adata SP900 SATA SSD (MLC goodness plus my ori Win10 is reused)
4TB 3.5" SATA HDD (internal storage)
4TB WD HDD (external storage via rear 3.0USB)
1TB USB HDD (external storage via rear 3.0USB)
1.5TB Seagate HDD (external storage via rear 3.0USB)
1.5TB Seagate HDD (external storage via rear 3.0USB)
*Maximised my rear USBs LOL

Total cost is a bit under RM 5000. However for the system only (minus the monitor), you could say it is a RM 4.5K system and that is with Alderlake i7 and 3060Ti.

Overall impression, I've been working on these specs since June and making changes along the months until I made the buy so, can I say I am a lil bit disappointed there wasn't any surprises? Maybe. Only the RAM performance did not do as I had expected.

I'll be going into the RAM section to ask some advice about it as my RAM just barely couldn't make it for 3600MHZ.

Anyhow I'm quite satisfied for now but this is not the end as my PC will be a long term work in progress of constant improvements.

I will post some individual parts reviews, benchmarks when I have the time but for now here is my nondescript sleeper PC build.
