  • To ensure the CPU runs at full speed, liquid cooling with a 360mm liquid cooler is recommended.
  • The customer enjoyed their previous motherboard.
  • The customer needed another kit of 256GB RAM, and understood the price increase in January 2026.
  • The customer requested the same storage capacity, we upgraded the OS drive to Gen5 due to cost equality vs Gen4.
  • The customer requested the same RTX 5090.
  • The overall design of the build meant that a 1500W power supply was recommended.
  • We used our bigger mid-tower case to fit the build.
