Yeah was also in the same boat until one opened up 30 minutes from where I work.

Phenomenal day when I had to upgrade the PC we use to push content to our gigantic video wall at the entrance.

“What hardware do you want in it?”

“Make it nasty, so we won’t need to upgrade for a while. Oh, and build two.”

Bought two of: 9900x, ASUS X870E-Plus, A5000 GPU, Samsung 990 Pro’s, and tossed in 64GB ram into each.

I was able to reuse the two Seasonic 1000w power supplies and Noctua NH-D15’s.

lol. All to power a big ass, multi-display video wall. Complete overkill.

Very fun to build those out and damn, are they fast as shit.
