Reusing an existing GPU and PSU.

It gets to inherit a reference design GeForce 1080 Ti and 80 Plus Titanium PSU (EVGA SuperNova T2 850W). GPU can be replaced later when it gets to stop being a workstation.
Nice that I was finally able to get new CPU and other parts at proper retail prices. Chip shortage sucks.

Got PSU a while ago to replace a dead one when EVGA was selling off the last of their nicer older generation. 10 year warranty is nice.
It was ridiculously overkill for where it's used ATM but the point was getting it for a new build. PSU/GPU are coming from that old desktop.
