This is the most modern build yet. Will be a classic in about 6nyears or so.

It s a core I7 3rd gen, 3770k, with a very nice gigabyte z77z ud5h mobo, 32 gb ram ddr 3 and a 980ti.

Most of the components are brand new, including ram, psu ssd s and hdd.

And boy, does it have some storage. 4 drives in total. 2 sdds, 1 msata and hdd for about 4tb total.

Evn more funny, because it runs windows 10,most modern things work. And for it s age, in normal tasks like Internet, YouTube, movies, etc, it s just like a normal modern pc.

Games wise, obviously will jot play latest games but it does OK in most pre 2020 titles.

Aaa... And forgot to mention the sound card, a sb x fi fatality...

The case is a corsair carbide 4000 full tower

So you are too early for this post.
In 6 years, it would be quite good !

Dual boot with XP, then it's retro!

I made a similar machine BTW, but dual booted Linux and XP. XP for retro gaming, Linux for Web Browsing. Could possibly put Windows 10 on it too though to play GOG games on. Since Windows 10 is out of support, I don't really want it on the Internet

Why are you surprised?
Windows 10 runs perfectly even on Socket 775.
The 3770K supports SSE4 and AVX, so Windows 11 25Н2 will run perfectly on it too.
Of course, it doesn’t support TPM 2.0. But that’s not a problem for most people.
