New NEW Godlike Max Gaming rig 2024 - 14th Gen + RTX 4090

[meade916]

I just built my last rig not to long ago and I am already at it again.  The reason I chose the parts for the last build was due to not having a mainboard that could support my new 5gig Fiber internet.  There wasn't many boards in the latest gen at the time that had what I needed.  You can see that build here

While that build worked GREAT, I also have another issue.  I have a Valve Index VR setup.  My main PC runs 3 monitors and every time I want to use VR I have to unplug display ports and restart the PC.  When I am done I have to plug it all back in and restart the PC again.  And then after that I have to reset my monitor configuration because it flips out when I start making changes like that.  Easy to put back, but a pain none the less.  I just want to pick the headset up and use it without all that drama.  So I decided I wanted a PC dedicated JUST for my VR.  My first choice was a gaming laptop.  I have one I use all the time that has an RTX 2070 in it.  I plugged it in and it works pretty good (for VR).  The only problem is for fast games like VR racing, it is pretty weak.  Not anywhere near the quality of my PC.  So I decided to build another gaming rig instead that I can dedicate to that.  While trying to figure out what I was going to use for the build, I decided that my "old" rig from March (2023) with the 11th gen could be the perfect tower instead and I can build a NEW NEW for my main rig instead.  I also have a spare RTX 3090 not being used that I spent $2500 on during covid lockdown.  So my VR PC will be my "old" PC with a 3090 in it and I will take my 4090 and put it in the new rig since it is still the latest card.  A little confusing but it might make sense by the time I am done with both of them.

We still have some stuff to configure and get the VR machine up and running next.  I will post more pics when it all comes together! So far this thing is blazing fast!!

dueling gaming pc’s 😁 I networked the drives so I can use the “older” pc as a storage server also. Win!

 

The one on the left is the previous PC but with an RTX 3090 in it.  The 4090 was migrated over to the new tower.
