My First Custom Loop Buld
I initially built this system with a 7900x3d, but wanted to upgrade to a 9800x3d so I could use my existing CPU for my kids build. As much 'fun' as putting it together was, I probably won't ever go full custom loop again lol. Full specs can be found in the 'Build Showcase' section under "First Hard Line Build"
