My gaming PC I built last year to play Flight Simulator 2024 has almost doubled in value now
A year ago I paid €6,562 for it, now it's worth €12,073 (+84%)
The GPU 2x'd, RAM 4x'd, and SSD up a bit
Never expected buying a gaming PC would outperform the S&P500!
Best friend @rameerez came to the rescue! That's why it's nice to live in a little village
We had to uninstall the entire CPU fan
It was completely bent out of shape (see pic), like completely crooked, probably by the pillow they put in for transport and they filled it with too much air/gas and that bend the CPU fan heatsink frame
The store didn't wanna help at all, they wanted us to send the whole giant box back to Spain (!) because even though it was sold and assembled in Portugal they can't fix it here 😂 typical experience here btw
So we did it ourselves, we bent it back into somewhat 90 degree normal shape, put thermal paste again, re-installed it, and booted it and it worked!
We already played @MSFSofficial 2024 on it at max really nice!!!
Thanks everyone here for recommending the specs, it's a great machine, RTX 5090 liquid cooled and AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D air cooled 👌
