€200 CPU cooler for €200 CPU coming through

Bought a couple of sticks of my favorite old school heat spreaders and applied them to my ram

If it matches the theme of your build who cares about minor details.

You picked G.Skill over Mushkin? Shame on you.

Sold off my Ryzen 1600 and its motherboard. Back to using i5 4670k. At first I wanted to turn to ultimate Windows XP gaming rig but I don't need it.

Weirdly the stutter I got when first installing Windows 10 with spectre/meltdown fix is no longer there. Now comes the lazy part where I need to do the cable management plus the amount of dust accumulated over the years. This old guy been through a lot, bend motherboard pins, overheated because AIO plug disconnected, PCIe lock broken and yet it still works since 2014.

Not fancy, but totally love my current all AMD setup.

Found this Motherboard tray with psu room at shed yesterday. Just finished putting the 3960x Cpu and friends. So I can take her in different room easily.

I just added a "new" GPU and removed one SSD which is now transformed into external storage. I also painted rhombus patterns on the right side of my case because I accidentally made three deep scratches. Believe it or not, this is (still) the most powerful PC in my entire neighborhood (around 500 people), second being Ryzen 5 1500X + RX 580 8GB + 16 GB RAM and third i7 3770 non-K + GTX 980 + 8GB RAM.

Spray paint that blue'ish shroud at some point?

I have lived next to my neighbors for 25+ years on a small town street in Indiana, no one has never said hi to anyone else outside of a wave of hand once in awhile. Let alone know what PC's they use. lol

Don't idealize America, it's a lonely place ruled by greed and envy and not being able to afford medicine for as long as I have been alive.

It's sad that this is true in your Neighborhood.
But it definitely is Not the case in the neighborhood I currently live nor in the last neighborhood I lived or even in the small farm town in North Carolina where I lived in the 90's.
Or really anywhere I have ever lived in the US.
I think you might need to go outside and actually get involved if you want that to change.
I know and get a long with quite a few of my neighbors.
And in my last neighborhood we had block parties in the summer all the time which was really nice.

America (as well as the many other countries from Canada to Mexico to the Bahamas to the Virgin Islands to Jamaica to Somoa to Fiji to Guam, that I have spent time in) are what You make of them.
If you make an effort to get to know people they usually respond in kind.

Not here I am afraid, and not now. This is a Trump street I live on, they fly their confederate flags here still. I have a Bernie sticker on my car... so yeah, not going to happen, thanks for trying to help though.

Slide back towards the Topic, please guys. thanks for keeping it civil, but go the extra mile for us poor mods

No. I like Palit's GTX 1080 Game Rock design. In my opinion it's one of the most beautiful GPU's ever made. They nailed the design and colors. Blue color adds a little bit of special touch to the existing colors in my case.

 

[potato580+]

nothings new of mine, only gpu usually changed, anyway i start to like this 980 card, very good and cooling

 

[Totally]

My pc atm, gpu block finally came in. Finally can start getting some tubing in place while I wait for the last bits to come in, namely a 280 for the top, and 140mm fans.

That's a nice looking potato.

How are you liking the 011XL? I've debated grabbing one out of boredom. The regular 011 I've always felt was way too compact.

I see you have a EVGA Nu Audio as well.

Feel the same about the regular o11 also just wished it was a little bigger, then the xl came along.

A while ago I planned a scratch build for my ideal case based on what I did not like about the pc-x2000 that I had, o11 xl is 90% similar to what I had on paper, it's narrower and longer than what I planned. To say the least I like it a lot. I can't describe how I enjoy living with this case taking off removing a side panel is something I seem to always find annoying, no thumb screws or finickly latching mechansim to fiddle around with slide the panels right off it's almost too convenient. Once the side panels are off everything is easily accessible. I couldn't care about how this case looks, it's got me on practicality alone and truly is tool-less.

Only gripe is that ALL the 2.5mm ssd mounting points are already occupied and not by SSDs, bottom rad blocks the points below the mb, distro plate nixes the points to the right of the mb, that leaves the behind the mb but with the cables running through there it doesn't seem feasible to use.

Yep, was an impulse buy.

I have the Xigmatek knockoff version of that case. It's almost an exact replica, but is missing some of the refinement of the Lian Li. The SSDs should fit at the back okay. I have 1x 2.5" and 2x 3.5" drives back there.
It makes managing the cables a real damn nightmare, but once you've built ut, there shouldn't be much need to mess with it again.
Ideally, I will upgrade to some 2 Tb NVMEs so I can get rid of the disks all together, but that is a while down the track.

Here's an image of mine for reference:

"But Chloe, why a SATA controller card", someone may ask. My stupid motherboard can't handle more than 4x SATA if I have the M.2 slot in use. Also, I managed to break a blade from that front fan, need to change that ASAP.

 

[ensabrenoir]

......Nvidia's "green 4 life" don't really work with everything.......so i guess i gotta retire the 200i and arurous pro wifi (..maybe a new linux build ) and go atx for my Phanteks evolv...... fun times ahead

 

[trickson]

Did some external wire management.

 

[freeagent]

I just made sure that my sticky tack holding the 90x32 fan and my ssd's in place was still sticky, good news it is

I should have gave her a dust but maybe next time.. still not too bad, just put the glass back on and she's ready to rock some more.

Done should be good for a while
