Updated gaming desktop for 2025

It took awhile but I finally got my hands on an RTX 5070ti for MSRP. 😁

I wasted more time trying to secure this card than I can admit, but it finally happened. The BestBuy queue system I hated so much finally delivered.

Here's the final piece of the gaming computer puzzle I've been building: Nvidia RTX 5070ti.

I added faster CL30 RGB RAM but the rest are re-used from my previous fishtank build.

My previous gaming PC was a Dark Base so now, this is my Light Base.

I'm still adjusting things (clean up cabling and sync lights), but this is good enough for now.
