Congrats. Looks super dope.
From where did you get the Kraken x52 cooler? I couldn't find it on any of the online stores here in PK.

Looks great dude! I may have to up my game with them HUE lighting as well. lol
Thank you , HUE+ does make a difference , if you want RGB then i would recommend to go with their full range from NZXT .

Jazakallah !

Yes you are right Trident Z RGB are the best looking RAMS for RGB needs , even the performance is pretty good .

Yes dear you can change colors of the NZXT Aer Fans through their CAMS software and HUE+ module.

Congratz Bro :)
Sony X800D is an interesting choice
Jazakallah ,

Ah yes Sony X800D surely is an interesting choice over a monitor for couple of reasons .

I was all out there to get a 40" 4K HDR gaming monitor , But sadly none exists as of yet (dell , LG and wasabi mango monitors do not count) looking at Asus and Acer lets hope we get big 4K HDR gaming monitors .
I am not much into competitive FPS like CS go , so i can get away with input lag , speaking of input lag , it is actually not that bad , very much playable (the high pings of our ISP will get us before we feel the input lag).
I mostly play RPG games and MOBA so a bigger screen makes it a more immersive experience.

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.

    Still, I don't like either Sony or Microsoft as they are focusing more on corporate greed than delighting customers. PC gaming is best of gaming and worth every penny.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.

    did you try setting up Google Payments? For UBL you may have to get it enabled for internet transactions, Naya should work without it!

    I tried both NayaPay, and UBL, but I keep getting "correct country selected..." error. I already have PK set there 🤦‍♂️

    Nope. They have a very valid case. The above video explains it all.
