Hey everyone! It has been a long time since I visited Neowin. After I built my first PC back in 2004, I stumbled across Neowin looking for wallpapers. Around 2011, I took a break from being a PC enthusiast/gaming to focus on other things. Happy to say I'm back in the saddle and I thought it was only proper to come show off my new baby

Name: toFu

 

AMD Ryzen 5 2600 (no OCing/fancy stuff yet)

Gigabyte Aorus B450 WiFi

XFX Radeon RX 570

Corsair Vengence 16GB DDR4 @ 3000 

Corsair CX-M 650w

Some SSD I ripped out of my Macbook to keep costs down. Think its Intel? (although thanks to my job I have a 512GB M.2 to upgrade to now)

2x WD 1TB HDD that were also ripped out of a Hackintosh I built a while back

Thermaltake Water 3.0 120mm AIO

3x darkAura 120mm RGB fans

 

Not pictured:

Asus VG278Q 27" 144hz display

fnatic Streak Mini TKL Mechanical Keyboard (Cherry MX Brown)

fnatic flick2 12k DPI gaming mouse

 

She might not look like much, but she's got it where it counts. Still a bit of a WIP as I want to upgrade the AIO (not really happy with the way this one looks would like to go for a rad that takes up the whole front panel) and I'll probably upgrade the graphics card sooner rather than later. I just wanted to get something I could game at decent framerates on and I more or less maxed out my budget for the time being (don't tell the wife!)

Things have certainly moved on by the looks of this thread, I never realised RGB was such a big thing now.

 

I had a couple of neon light strips, coloured fans and a case with a see though side panel back in 2004, I thought that was pretty hardcore back then.

I prefer my PC to be incognito these days, however Neowin members have some great looking builds! :)

Yeah, much rather have computer be incognito also, but most of the stuff here just looks insanely cool at same time!

      Thanks, Sony and Nintendo, you effectively killed platform-agnostic gaming. Long gone are the days when you could wish to play a specific game on whatever platform you were. Now, you have to buy the hardware just to play that single game. What, you're only interested in THAT game and nothing more? Bad luck, suck it and buy our console.

    • "CRAZIER than ever!" Crazy Taxi: World Tour is officially coming soon

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      "CRAZIER than ever!" Crazy Taxi: World Tour is officially coming soon by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Sega announced it is working on bringing back some of its classic franchises in 2023, and while it has taken some time, the company finally gave fans a look at one of these new projects at the Xbox Games Showcase today, which turned out to be a brand-new Crazy Taxi entry. Watch the debut trailer above, which has snippets of gameplay in between the cinematic bits while blasting a track from The Offspring. Dubbed Crazy Taxi World Tour, this installment is aptly being described as being "CRAZIER than ever!" The director behind the original, Kenji Kanno, is helming this new entry as well, which will come with access to five new cities to drive in, competitive multiplayer modes, a vehicle customization system, and more. Axel is returning as a protagonist as well, but this time a mystery driver is offering him the opportunity to take his adventures to the streets in other countries. This will involve Axel chasing down masked villains that have somehow stolen his taxi, which means even more extreme missions and challenges to overcome. "From transporting passengers at top speed to tackling unique side missions and odd jobs across dynamic maps, there are countless ways to drive crazy and rake in big money," says Sega about this new installment after over 20 years. "Perform outrageous drifts, catch insane air, and drive at crazy speeds across five different cities as you work to deliver passengers and complete a variety of missions and challenges." The studio has even confirmed an in-game Arcade Mode that players will be able to access containing the original games for plenty of nostalgic action. Crazy Taxi: World Tour is currently slated to release sometime in 2027 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2.

      This and Crazy Taxi are the two games that interested me the most from this showcase.
