I really need 3x displayports.

Anyway, introducing FireStorm. The benchmarks are my old 2011 vintage modded Dell XPS vs this one. I think it was a good price/benefit build. Pushing the specs any higher would have had a low return.

Still, the Dell was holding it's own given it's nearly a decade old.
Sweet build. Welcome to the AMD and 5700 gang. You can probably hide the 8 pin more if you route it through the 3.5 and 5.25 bays.
