Congrats and Nice choice on the i5 12600K! There's a big misconception that the i7/i9 are (bigger = better), but you have gone with a SOLID build for gaming/SIMs.

Very nice. Did the same some months back. Even though I spent 37 years in the computer hardware support industry, it was my first home build.

I've never bought a premade computer. Been about 6 years since I did the last one though. I think my first build was almost 30 years ago. Crazy how much it's changed.
