Your PC ATM

[wNotyarD]

Bored of my Dark knight case and its just too small and noisy for my taste. So in come the old CSX Stacker with custom skull and flame paint. 12700k@5.1/4.0, 64GB 3200mhz Cas 14, ASRock Steel Legend z690, 3x Intel Optane drives, SK Hynix p31 NVME drive, Intel ARC 750, Seasonic Plat Focus. Case has lots of custom touches, like updated IO.

This case screams early 2000's.

Might post my 2nd PC too

I have those unplugged optical drives there just because the case is missing two 5.25" blanks.

Hi,
Swapped out pump/ reservoir combos ocool I like better o
I did reuse the ek pump stand though it is more stable than also had to rotate the reservoir so I could get the side panel back on tubing a little stiff hehe

 

[freeagent]

I think it looks ok, the tubes blocking stuff would annoy me a bit, but really.. how often do you really need to pull stuff out? Probably not often..

Oh man, the Logitech MouseMan Dual Optical Wireless... I loved the shape, but hated the wireless back then. I switched mine for a wired version and used it for like 15 years or so, lol.

New GPU, RTX 3060M. I'm thinking my PSU will barely cut it for this 80W beast.

Not sure if I'll add it to the water loop, already barely hits 55c with fans @ 1300RPM and it seems to be power limited to ~80W in the silicon.

Got the D15s chromax black from my mate for £30, was gonna borrow it, but asked it i wanted to buy it, £30 bargain

Hi,
Nice I got my D15 upside down to, darn hard to see the noctua name on top

 

[PLAfiller]

Yes...I have a DVD rom...and I love the 5.25 bays Used RV02, got to do some work on it. I have one more red puck on the fridge

A normal D15 won't fit on this board, the pipes hit the heatsink at the top, same with this unless it is rotated 180' idle temps are as good as they were with the 700 quid loop on Great VFM

I have had to use a LGA1200 mount kit though, luckily the board has the holes for it. I have ordered a free LGA1700 mount kit as i might as well, and will need it if i change to a Z790 board. I do have a LGA1700 backplate but not the correct front plates to fit the cooler, the screws on the cooler are too close together to screw onto the front plates.

You and me are alike. Cant seem to leave my hardware alone for more than a week. Always changing. Maybe its my ADHD...

That is what I am thinking.. I always have to tinker with something..

Brought an toy to play with today. Old Dell xps 510 chassis. Amazing kit. Thick aluminum. I converted it to ATX. Its filthy I know, Ill clean it today.



And my new router is coming together. i5, 8GB, 120GB SSD, intel 10GBE. Just gotta get pfsense set up on it and find time to take my network down for a bit. ATM, Im using an old Dell Optiplex with a 10GBE card in it.

I had one of them, bought for 30 quid with all the hardware in it, 2 cards, cpu ram drives. They are a pretty nice case tbh.

Holy flashback, I haven't seen one of those in forever.
I had an XPS (not that one) before I built my first PC, it had a 6800GT and a Pentium D (space heater) lol.

 

[P4-630]

And who here did spend a grant on a Pentium 4 EE in the past?...

I think I was running a Barton 2500+ Mobile at that time

After PIII I didn't go back until Conroe, after I abused A64

I'm going to find and try out on of these. Very intrigued!

Finally got around to installing the PA-120 (it's only been like 5 months)
Kept the fans from my NH-U12A on it too.

Hi,
Looks symmetrical so frankly I just f'ed up because I installed looking from the top of the case so name looked fine then

Look at it the other way, 180'. it wont fit, i looked on the Notua website, so had to get the S version. the pipes on the D15 hit the top VRM cooler, the S is offset so upside down there is enough clearance.

Hi,
Yeah that's likely why I did to
