The CPU cooler showed up today, which means I could finish* the build. My PC now has a radiator.

Successful POST on the first attempt

Windows installation has improved for the better over the years. Time from first POST to fully installed OS was about 15 minutes.

Now I just have to spend the rest of the evening installing drivers and the like.

* There is also all the cable management and the like to do.

Spotted a SSD in that tower. Software install should happen quickly enough, I would think.

Looks like you’ve gone from 993 to 996... The purists won’t be happy, but if it works for you, then all is well!

It is progressing quickly. The steam library will take some time, though.

There’s also things like the RGB to be turned off. Haven’t gotten to installing the software that controls that yet.

My board just has red LEDs under the motherboard, which apparently can’t be turned off? Luckily, I have no window, so it can’t show regardless. The video card has RGB lighting, but I turned that off right away.
