When I was your age we had to build the processor with hammers and nails, kids these days all using prefabs, makes me sick.

Congrats! Did you run into any issues? Did you make sure your monitor is plugged into the GPU and set the refresh rate in display settings? Did you enable XMP and reBAR and configure fan profiles in BIOS?
Oh man you've gotta turn it off, your ram is so hot it's glowing blue!!!
Nice job! :P
Looks super clean!
That feeling when you turn it on for the very first time is a sensation unlike any other. Also the last screw to be screwed in/or component to be placed lol.
Lookin pretty good. What's the first game you'll play on it?
That looks nice for your first build. I was browsing the comments but it was yet to be brought up, so here it goes.
Whenever you can, and if your PSU has available slot, try and use another PCIE cable going from your power supply to your RX 7700 XT. A single cable powering it might be fine for now but it can be taxing to the cable once you overclock or really pushing the GPU to the limit.
Nonetheless, great job dude.
Noyce cable management and specs, I built PC's for 30 years...you sure this was your first build? jk.
I bought the same cooler couple of weeks ago without the rgb, best choice budget cooler imo. Got it cooling a 7800x3d real good.
Good job! I've been looking for that GPU for a while but can't get one at a price that makes sense. Enjoy gaming!
