ZTK Vulcanus Black Model
Blacked-out, fire-lit 1080p.
Sold — this one found its owner
A blacked-out forge of a build in a DIYPC panoramic dual-chamber case — a Ryzen 5 3600 on an ASUS TUF B550 (AM4) board, an ASUS ROG STRIX RX 580 8GB, and 32GB of Silicon Power DDR4-3200 under EZDIY-FAB ARGB coolers, all liquid-cooled by a 360mm Thermalright AIO and lit edge-to-edge by ten infinity-mirror ARGB fans behind wraparound tempered glass. Hand-built and cable-managed in Cutler Bay.

Anatomy of the build
Every part, chosen on purpose.
No filler, no leftover stock. Here's exactly what goes into the ZTK Vulcanus Black Model — and why we picked it.
The chassis
DIYPC ARGB-N3 (Black) · Panoramic
The Vulcanus is built in a DIYPC ARGB-N3 — a dual-chamber panoramic case with wraparound tempered glass across the front and side for an unbroken, corner-to-corner view of the build. Four 120mm ARGB fans come pre-installed, the second chamber hides the PSU and cabling for a clean front face, and it's back-connect (BTF) ready. Rated for a 360mm radiator up top — exactly why this build runs a full 360 AIO.

Motherboard
ASUS TUF Gaming B550-PLUS WiFi II
A TUF-built AM4 backbone — 8+2 DrMOS power stages with alloy chokes feed the Ryzen clean, stable power, and onboard WiFi 6 + 2.5Gb LAN mean wireless is built right in, no add-in card. PCIe 4.0, dual M.2, USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C, and BIOS Flashback for painless upgrades, plus Aura Sync RGB to tie the build together. AM4 also leaves a clear upgrade path — drop in a Ryzen 5000 chip (up to a 5800X3D) later and it just works.

Graphics
ASUS ROG STRIX RX 580 T8G Gaming (TOP OC)
The 1080p workhorse — ASUS's top-tier RX 580, factory-overclocked to 1431 MHz. A full 8GB of GDDR5 gives real breathing room, the triple wing-blade cooler with MaxContact copper keeps it cool and quiet across 2.5 slots, and Aura Sync RGB color-matches it to the fire-lit build behind the glass.

Processor
AMD Ryzen 5 3600 (6C/12T)
The value gaming CPU of its generation — six Zen 2 cores and twelve threads that still push 100+ FPS in the world's most popular games. Unlocked, cool, and efficient at 65W, it's exactly the right amount of CPU for this 1080p build — and on this B550 board it's a stepping stone, not a dead end: drop in a Ryzen 5000-series chip later and keep everything else.

Memory
Silicon Power DDR4-3200 · EZDIY-FAB ARGB Coolers
A full 32GB of Silicon Power DDR4-3200, then dressed properly: EZDIY-FAB aluminium ARGB coolers slipped over the bare modules so the memory glows clean behind the panoramic glass and syncs with the rest of the build. That's a deliberate touch, not a stock part — most machines at this price leave the RAM bare. Locked in at 3200MHz with one click of XMP, with headroom to spare for gaming alongside Discord, a browser, and a stream.

Cooling
Thermalright Frozen Infinity 360 (Black)
A 360mm liquid loop on a 65W Ryzen is gloriously overkill — and that's the point: the CPU runs cold and dead-silent with years of headroom. An infinity-mirror ARGB pump head and three ARGB fans on S-FDB bearings light it up and keep it quiet, all synced to the build's 5V ARGB. Cooling and centerpiece in one.

Storage
500GB NVMe SSD
Your OS and games live here, so we fit a fast PCIe NVMe drive — the same class of M.2 we run across our builds — for near-instant boots, snappy launches, and game loads in seconds. 500GB keeps Windows and your library quick, and it drops into the B550's Gen4 M.2 slot with a second slot open to expand.

Power
RAIDMAX Vortex 700W · 80+ Bronze
700 watts is real headroom for this build — the whole machine draws well under that, so the supply runs cool and quiet on its 120mm fan, never stressed, with room for a bigger GPU down the road. 80 PLUS Bronze certified with Active PFC, on the standard ATX 12V / EPS 12V rails for stable, reliable power.

Airflow
120mm Infinity-Mirror ARGB Fans (Black)
The finishing touch — ten ARGB fans all told, counting the case intakes and the trio on the radiator. 120mm reverse-blade infinity-mirror units, PWM-controlled for silence at idle and real airflow under load, on quiet hydrodynamic bearings. The reverse blades keep the lighting facing the glass for a clean, edge-to-edge glow, all in 5V ARGB sync with the AIO and case.
