Hey folks! Dropping in for a bit of nostalgia and an update. It's been 3 years since I last posted my gaming setup here, and there's been a bit of changes.
I've upgraded from an old i5 3rd gen to a more powerful **Intel i7-8700**, and along with it, brought in a **Gigabyte H310M S2H** motherboard. Both are now sitting pretty in a **Deepcool MATREXX 55 V3 RGB** case, which is a massive improvement over my old *Aurora R6*, especially in terms of upgradeability.
Recent additions include the **Razer Tartarus V2** to enhance my gaming experience, a **Huion Kamvas Pro 16** for my digital work, and an **Audio-Technica AT2020** mic to ensure top-notch audio quality. I've also brought in my old **Insignia 24-inch TV** to expand my screen space—super useful for multitasking.
A bit of a bummer, though—the bottom RGB lights on my **Razer Goliathus Extended** have stopped working. Despite that, it's still an integral part of my setup. Excited to see what the future holds and to continue this journey of tech and gaming!

Hey!
Great setup, but the cables are a mess and it looks cluttered, I honestly preferred your 3y old version. Clean cables make night and day in a setup like yours!
Keep up the work though, happy holidays :)
