**Title:** Upgrading a $400 Amazon-Built PC to a "Bastion of Gaming Excellence" with Amazon's Choice Components
**Summary:**
* Started with a budget PC built with Amazon components (<$400)
* Sponsored by Corsair, promoting their Shift series power supply
* Upgraded the PC using only Amazon's Choice components:
1. Cooler Master RGB fans
2. Sleeved extension cables
3. SYY thermal paste
4. Crucial P3 1TB NVMe storage
5. Airgoo Digital RGB LED strip
6. Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120SE CPU cooler
7. MSI Ventus 2 RTX 3060 graphics card
* Documented the upgrade process, highlighting challenges and observations
* Post-upgrade testing revealed:
+ Significant performance boost (expected, given the iGPU to RTX 3060 upgrade)
+ Potential CPU bottleneck (AMD 4600G struggling to keep up with RTX 3060)
+ Minor performance gain from a small CPU overclock
* Conclusion: Upgrades were "okay" except for the power supply; some components (e.g., RTX 3060 model, CPU cooler fans) might not have been the best value choices.
Here are the key facts extracted from the text, each with a number and in short sentences, excluding opinions:
**System and Upgrades**
1. The initial PC was built for less than $400 using Amazon.

8. Upgrade: Airgoo Digital RGB LED strip kit (Amazon's Choice, super bright LEDs).
9. Upgrade #17: Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120SE CPU Cooler (Amazon's Choice, beefy cooler).
10. Upgrade #17 (final): MSI Ventus 2 RTX 3060 graphics card (Amazon's Choice).
**System Specifications and Performance**
11. The system originally used an integrated GPU (iGPU).
12. The CPU used is a 4600G.
13. The system's storage was increased to 4 times the original, with faster NVMe storage.
14. The RTX 3060 graphics card was added, significantly improving performance.
15. The 4600G CPU showed utilization jumps to about 90% with the RTX 3060.
16. A small CPU overclock to 4.6 GHz was attempted, increasing power draw and CPU temperatures.
17. The overclock resulted in higher temperatures but minimal performance gain in standardized tests.
**Miscellaneous**
18. The power supply used was Amazon's Choice but considered subpar by the creator.
19. The system's case had limited cable routing options, causing management issues.
20. The Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120SE cooler did not come with good fans (separate from the RGB fan upgrades).
