I finally upgraded my desktop PC - dropped in a new motherboard, processor, and 32GB of DDR4-3600. Decided to go with AMD and bought a 3900x. Waaaay overkill for what I do, but it was reasonably cheap, install went smoothly and it's stupid fast. I had my Haswell i5 for about 6 years, so this build should last awhile.

Bought a pile of parts for assembling what I intend to be a home storage server, probably this weekend. Got enough personal projects and assorted media hanging around on a succession of old hard drives that I'm starting to really want a RAID array.

Starting to put together a new i9 computer. An iTX i9 LGA 2066 mobo for taking with me easy.

Using the Manta case for the build. Picked for smaller size but can still get in and out easy. 

I haven't picked which CPU yet. I want the 16 core but will likely get a 12 or 14 core as the price falls down fast from 16 cores to 14. In some cases in comes down $1000 over two cores difference.

Definitely m.2 ssd as the OS drive and two SSD drives for content. Hopefully get a 2070 or 2080 gpu card for rendering in Redshift.
Current box has a 1070ti which is fast enough.

I don't want to do a win10 build but it is quite hard to get most of the software I want in linux flavor if it isn't related to 3D animation and even then some plugins are win only.

I still use win7 for windows which I really like more than win10. Definitely a dual boot machine for win / linux.

I resisted the switch to Windows 10 from 7 for as long as I could, but finally bit the bullet when I knew I'd be doing the mobo/CPU upgrade. It's hasn't been *too* terrible, honestly. It updates all the damned time, but overall it feels just as responsive as 7 (which was my biggest concern), and like anything a lot of it was just getting used to the differences in interface.

Of course dual boot is a given.

Microsoft knows they can never again make money by selling Windows, so now they've converted it into a massive spyware system and are giving it away. Ethically challenged; yes but you can't fault 'em for being stupid...

A single 400 Octane and a dual 600 Octane.

Nice! The dual 600 is a little beast!
