Received my new computer Friday, 4/17/2020. So far I Love it! Still a couple things I need to work out, because I am very particular. Wonderful computer, solid build, quality parts. Everything I have come to expect from Digital Storm. This is my second purchase from them. First was in 2012. Hope I'm back in 2028 looking for another.

One quick question: I have an ASUS Nvidia GTX 2070 Super video card. I only see one fan on the card. I thought they all had two fans? Any comments?

Alex: Received only one set of speakers. I suspect the extra set will come separately?

Pics: Best I could do!

I have the same type of GPU. It is the turbo variant which in turn means it is a blower-type card. It will exhaust out the back of your case, rather than inside the case. My GPU power limit throttles at 84 degrees C which it always reaches during game play. I plan to modify my GPU to add a water block down the road.

GrandesBollas: Thanks for your answer.

Cretae: You probably don't remember me, and I know my rig looks way different from where I started. However, I would like you to know that I did take your advice on a couple suggestions to me and I stole some advice you gave to others. Thanks. You are a great help to many!

Hey Jim,

I'm glad you're enjoying your brand new Digital Storm Lumos. It's a beauty.

I'm going to check on those second set of speakers for you.

Congratulations and thank you for the images. Very nice. Awesome
Make sure you have enough room in the rear for the fan to exhaust properly.

Enjoy. Smile

Hey, NewJim2016, I certainly remember all us dinosaurs, we are the ones who pushed gaming to these heights!

I am very pleased to have been any help, and appreciate the kind words.

Sure is fun to get one of these, isn't it?

Cretae. Yes, so much fun. Just learning all the new things is great. My wife thinks I'm crazy. I think she is jealous! Ha. Lots of fun, thanks to you and Digital Storm.

I do see two speaker sets scanned out, so there is probably a separate box on the way with them. If you don't get them in the next day or so, feel free to contact our support team.
