Ol' Beastie's 2016 overhaul -
Upon request from
@MIRTAZAPINE .
This is Ol' Beastie having completed all of her 2016 upgrades. NCase M1, Corsair SF600, EVGA GTX 1070, Cablemod paracord in white/blue, Demciflex filters, and (very unfortunately) a 750GB MX300 to stand in for her previous 850 EVO that is going for RMA.
I intentionally omitted cable combs from my order. My quibble with the SF600 / M1 combo is that the bend required of the 24-pin is too great, and with stock cables this prevents the NF-F12 I have mounted now (not shown, on a separate bracket) from being used as the 24-pin is too stiff and juts out at an angle. Sleeved cables solve this problem but only without combs, as the sleeved cables are more voluminous and obviously need to be ruffed up a bit to fit properly.
Here is the new MX300. Runs perfectly, though I really wish my 850 EVO didn't have to crap out on me. Also messed up the bokeh here, dunno why I touched the "clarity" setting.
Is impresive and big.
