Design Rationale

  • The Ryzen 5 2600X gave the customer a good amount of single-core performance for general use, and multicore performance for heavily-threaded tasks.
  • To ensure the CPU runs at full speed, air cooling with a single-tower cooler is recommended.
  • The customer wanted a stable motherboard with a good amount of desktop functionality.
  • The customer wanted at least 32GB of RAM, 64GB was an easy upgrade.
  • The customer was fine with our default storage setup.
  • The customer was fine with our recommended video card.
  • The overall design of the build meant that a 650W power supply was recommended.
  • We used our default mid-tower case to fit the build.
  • We used our default fans to ensure proper airflow and static pressure.

Customer Review

“I have been a partner with Chris for about a year now. His support of the SESRA esport racing league has been vital every step of the way. Our small league was in need of a powerful rig to stream our races and they did more than deliver.

The capability to broadcast our shows in 1080p HD is a game changer from a business stand point and critical in securing future sponsors in our sport.

Chris Touchberry is GOOD people, and very much consider him a true friend! At this point, there is no one else I would trust with any tech situation!

Thanks for all your support for me and my league! And be sure to follow the upcoming Top Flight Computers AM Series!”
