Design Rationale

  • The i9-12900K gave the customer a great amount of single-core performance for modeling, and multicore performance for heavily-threaded tasks.
  • To ensure the CPU runs at full speed, liquid cooling with a 360mm AIO is recommended.
  • The customer wanted a stable motherboard with a good amount of desktop functionality.
  • The customer wanted at least 64GB of RAM, and didn’t want last-gen tech.
  • The customer upgraded both drives, doubling the capacity of both.
  • As the RTX 3090 was not priced well at time of purchase, we recommended the RTX A5000 for VRAM and pricing.
  • The overall design of the build meant that a 850W power supply was recommended.
  • We used a bigger mid-tower case to fit the build.
  • We used our highest-end fans to ensure proper airflow and static pressure.

Customer Review

“Chris and his team built an absolute beast of a computer for us and the personal touch they put on it ensures we squeeze every ounce of horsepower out of it!”
