Backstory:
After a year spent with my Maverick Warhawk 5900x Build, I started to get envious with my
April 2024 Building of the Streaming PC for my Church.

That PC as of 2024 used the then BRAND SPANKING NEW(2 years since it's 2022 Launch) AM5 Socket.

And my PC at this point was stuck with AM4 which to me was already Long in the tooth for 2024.
So after I had dealt with my Autodesk Maya License Payments, I decided to use my Tax Returns to plan a Motherboard Swap in my PC.

I bought a GIGABYTE AORUS AM5 Motherboard because why not.

Many changes happened with this build.

For one, the motherboard as mention above uses Socket AM5 instead of AM4,
The board uses LGA for the Socket instead of PGA because different socket,

Because of the change of hardware, my Memory now uses DDR5 Memory so that meant
getting new Corsair RAM sticks for my build(It's still 32gb of dual-channel DDR5)

The board is now full ATX whereas, my AM4 motherboard previously was Micro-ATX.

And I also changed my Power Supply because I really wanted a 1000 Watt Unit but...
the 1000w PSUs out there were not at an agreeable price range I was looking for.

The Seasonic Focus GX-1000 I chose was on Sale so I bought that.

Another reason for going for 1000w is because I anticipate another GPU upgrade in 2025 and If you can imagine that, the wattage on the upgrade will go up so getting a 1000w was necessary.

And because my motherboard has an extra SSD Slot, I bought another SSD for my new build
because I wanted to separate my internal DATA and Game Storage.

Though this time, Instead of going with another Samsung, I went with Lexar.

All-In-All, those are the only changes.

I'm still using my Fractal POP air Mid-Tower Case,

But I did modify my Fans.

Now I'm using my Thermaltake Pure 12 Fans.
(Two for Front Intake, One for rear Exhaust.)

I'm still using my DeepCool AK620 Air Cooler from my previous build.
I was considering swapping that out for a Noctua or Be Quiet! equivalent but I was on a budget so I just reused my cooler from the previous rig.

And I'm still using my RTX 4080 GPU from the Previous Rig because I need a dedicated GPU for my workloads
and I was not on board with using the Integrated Radeon Graphics my AMD Ryzen 9 7900x3D uses.
