    MSI MPG z390 Gaming Pro Carbon AC motherboard
    16GB G.skill tridentZ, 3200 MHz
    2 SSD's (250GB EVO 860 (boot), 500GB EVO 970)

    NZXT Kraken x62 radiator
    NZXT h700i case

    Should be a fun toy.
    Nice setup! Probably going to want a 2nd gpu in The future as games get more demanding with full 4k.

    What are you planning to play on it?

      Well, I'm not planning on doing anything in 4k in the near future. Got 2 1080p (144hz) monitors for now. As for 2 GPU's, either Nvidia will need to do a driver update to allow 2070's to be SLI (if that's even possible? In my mind it is, but not sure), or it'll be a generational upgrade for me, as only the 2080 and 2080ti can do SLI.

      Honestly not sure how far down the rabbit hole I'll go. This is my first proper PC, so I've only gamed on laptops since High School (12-15 years ago now). I've got an HP Omen 17" Laptop now, so it does a pretty decent job with most stuff. Currently primarily Rocket League, occasional pillaging the seas on SoT, and some others I have but haven't played. Don't know if I'll dive into the BR genre too much, just don't have the time to grind and getting demolished constantly isn't much fun.

          So I never had a gameboy, but as a Zelda fan I’m pumped for Nintendo’s upcoming reboot of Links Awakening for the switch.

                  I still remember the cheat where if you touched the edge of the screen and immediately hit select or something, it would warp you to the second screen.

                    I've seen some images, and it looks gorgeous. I don't have a Switch, so...

                        Oh I remember that!!

                        What a great game. Was looking back at some of the images and stories and remembered just how good it really was.

                          Huge XBox One video game sale through the Microsoft Store this week (ends Monday). A whole lot of the Ubisoft catalog is available. I picked up Assassins Creed Odyssey Gold (season pass which will include remastered AC3 and AC Liberation free next month) for $33 (normally $100, so all three for $11 each). Also picked up AC: Origins for $15.

                          Tempted to get Watch Dogs 2 for $9 or Far Cry 5 for $15, but I fear I might get too burnt out on even more Ubisoft open world games. I already have a backlog of RDR2 to complete (open world, not Ubi), and The Division 2 comes out next month.

                              Sekiro looks and plays fantastic. Im playing on the xbox one X version.

                              Plays differently than Soulsbourne games, but still has the learn the enemy or die mechanic.

                              But i feel more in control of my gameplay with this one. Has a nice stealth aspect along with sword play.

                                I love watching the pros play FIFA. They HATE the game but they've turned it into their careers so they have to keep playing. It's hilarious.
