Below are a two pics of my 2nd rig, I'd decided that though my i7 3960X has lower IPC's than the i7 4770K, it still has 50% more cores/threads, so it should be better in the long run. I'd originally built this rig back in 2011/2012 and I gotta say, it's been pretty good thus far. I'd swapped out the original Corsair H100 AIO I'd started with with a a Corsair H100i RGB Pro XT (at least, I think it is, it's been awhile and my memory ain't what it used to be.....not that it was any good in the first place).

soupnazi would have been proud of the inroads I've made into the audio realm!;)
I love watching movies on this setup because of the Acer 21:9 monitor, WS movies at 2.39:1 when watched on a regular 16:9 monitor would have those black bars on top and bottom of screen. On a 21:9 monitor (which is equal to 2.39:1 ratio), movies can be cropped to fit the entire screen without those bars getting in the way....like Alita shown below (includes the 4K BR I'd gotten), simply perfect for me!
