Yeah mine didn't turn on in the first go and I freaked out. Then I discovered after an hour of testing that I had put the connection from the motherboard to the power switch on backwards. The cables are still a total mess and each time I go to turn it on I get a little anxious but right now it's working and I'm pumped

Nice! Did it turn on, the first go? (Which isn't such a stupid question! Since although I work in IT and have used PCs all my life, I don't build new ones that often, so I -and others I know- often don't double-check everything and end up forgetting something stupid, even if it's just not turning on the power supply switch/toggle. Doesn't exactly inspire confidence, I know :D )

So, what games are you gonna start with? If you haven't already played it, I will forever recommend The Witcher 3 (and Rainbow Six: Siege, if you like FPS').

Lol, there was a moment after I solved my problem where I went crazy and tried to turn it on and it did nothing. I freaked until I saw that I forgot to plug the power cable back in. I've already gone through Witcher on PS4, but when I transfer my games over I wanna run Arma to see if it will finally be decent for me. There were a lot of games that my laptop couldn't handle that I can play now. Xcom2, dark souls 1, and a few others

Oh man, I really can't live with messy cables in my PC - everythingis tucked in and ordered nicely, just so that part replacements/additions are quick and easy. Plus I guess it might also improve airflow due to fewer obstructions, I suppose.

...Dust, however...yeah, I should probably make sure no dust has accumulated, when I get home....ehhh I'll do it some other time, I'm sure :D

Yeah I'm trying to figure something out. Unfortunately the way that a couple of wires for my fans and other things worked out they would lay really close to my gpu. Currently the bulk of them are bundled together but I still want to get the situation together

arma seems like fun imo. under the right circumstances

I really like it, especially single player missions that are made so you start off with a squad and through doing objectives you can 'buy' platoons you can order to do stuff.
