Components (From the top of my head)
Asus ROG Strix H370-F MoBo (Which unfortunately doesn't allow any overclocking on the i7-8700K but that's the only MoBo they had left back at the time)
i7-8700k @ 3.7, 4.2 with Turbo Boost
16 GB of DDR4 RAM at 3000Mhz
520 HyperX SSD
Gigabyte Nvidia 1080 8GB of VRAM
And that's about it!
Built it yesterday since I'm studying Web Development and Windows games would distract me every single time. Everything is buttery smooth, Audio does Work, Video Card is detected, Sleep, Etc. All work too.
If I had to complain about something, it'd be that I need to have my USB plugged in at all times (Unless I'm dumb and I've missed on something and I don't actually need it) but oh well, I'd say this is probably isn't better than a Mac in terms of functionality because there's obviously internals involved that only Apple has access to, but I'd say as far as the price goes, and the stability of the system, the few hours I spent researching and installing, it's been totally worth it.
Also, I'm not running Mojave. I tried but found out they don't have support for Nvidia Video Cards, so yeah.
Here go the Benchmarks!
