  2. 2016 - Compact Minimalist Build

    In 2016 and the next couple of years I would be traveling quite a lot between summer work in Germany and university in the Netherlands. Therefore, I needed something that is a quite a bit more compact compared to the PowerMac G5, but at the same time on a tight budget. I really didn't feel like overspending and making an entirely new build. Decided to go for a new more compact case - Jonsbo UMX 3, got an SFF power supply to go along with the tiny build and ditched HDDs entirely moving everything to SSDs.

  3. 2020 - The Black and Purple Goliath

    After graduating university in 2018, me and my wife finally got our own place. This automatically meant that the small build which I created some years ago could finally be replaced. In 2020, I finally splurged and got my thus far most favorite computer case of all times - Cooler Master Cosmos C700P. Throughout the year, the build underwent several changes. Most prominently it began with a simple 120mm and a GTX 1080 and ended up with full custom water cooling and an RTX 3080. To top that off the RTX 3080 was replaced in February 2021 with a PowerColor Red Devil 6900XT, as I wasn't exactly happy with the performance of Nvidia's offering. 
     
    Latest specs:  
    - Processor: AMD Ryzen 9 3900X overclocked to 4.4GHz 
    - Cooling: 1x EK 360mm radiator, 1x EK 120mm radiator, EK Velocity CPU block, XSPC Photon 270 V2 pump/res combo unit, various EK fittings and 13mm flexible tubing
    - Graphics Card: PowerColor Red Devil 6900XT, previously an EVGA RTX 3080 XC3
    - Motherboard: Asus Crosshair VI Extreme X370
    - RAM: 16GB (4x4GB Apacer 2666MHz) overclocked to 3933MHz CL20 and cooler with OCZ Reaper HPC Heatsinks
    - Power Supply: Corsair RM1000i
    - Case: Cooler Master Cosmos C700P Black Edition

  9. 50's retro sci-fi computer

    My first custom case...
     
    I tend not to do things in little steps, and as a first time case builder (I doubt this would qualify as "modding"), here's what I have so far.
     
    This is a 1945 Tokheim gas pump (or what's left of it), it was left on the side of the road and I picked it up for $50... I'm pretty sure I over paid.
     
    Full disclosure, this build used more auto repair knowledge than computer knowledge, and a lot of generous talent from others who thought I was crazy.
     
    It's not done yet, but here's the progress so far. Let me know what you guys think!

  16. A True Classic

    This is an album on my first ever pc as a kid which i used to play Quake and Doom on and it is getting a rebuild as my friend spilled curry all over the motherboard, cpu and video card when we were having a serial link lan playing games together haha. i have found none of these machines in my life before and the machine has a few rare components in it so i have to make it last. The Adaptec Scsi card had a huge!!! cut out if it because the cpu is in the way so i soldered a couple of wire jumpers in to make the card work again for that missing chunk of pcb. Now the Ram sockets are only holding by one latch so they are bending in a curve from the stress lol! so i have to de-solder both of them and replace them with some metal tagged ones. There is also a trident video card, Dx33mhz 486 cpu and a Diamond sound card as they were backup parts. The specs will be put below.

    Manufacture: Dell
    Model Name: 210
    Cpu: Intel Pentium Overdrive 83mhz (oc)-100mhz all 256k cache chips.
    Motherboard: Intel Classic R Socket 2-3
    Pretty surprising that a motherboard from 1992-3 has support for the overdrive and has all solid cap capacitors and motherboard manufactures boast about that now?
    Ram: 2x 16mb 72pin Fpm simm max 32mb
    Hdd: Fujitsu 2.6gb ide
    Video Card: 16bit Isa Number Nine GXE32 2mb S3 928
    Sound Card: 16Bit Isa Sound Blaster pro 2 ct1600 8bit upgrading to a 16bit SB32 CT3670 With AWE
    Scsi: Adaptec 16bit isa Scsi card for iomega zip/Ditto
    CD Rom: 12x speed
    3.5" Floppy
    Chipset: VLSI
    And 1 blue led fan for a luagh :)
    There could have been another few items lol a casio keyboard for my midi a mountain of floppy disks and a thrustmaster top gun joystick for ef2k or known as tfx

    All images were taken by a floppy driver camera :)

  19. Aesthetics , Value for money , Performance . Juiced up

    Specs first . Story later : Its a long list , congrats if you've read all the way through but please dont ask me which parts are in the rig..I WILL answer you ...but please

    Thermaltake level 10 chassis
    i5 4670 k (about to be delid using vice method)
    Asrock z87m Extreme 4 Micro ITX motherboard
    16GB Kingston Hyper X Beast bla bla bla @ 2133 Ram
    OCZ Vertex 4 SSD
    WD Caviar Black
    Havent raided them . Thats hurt real bad in the past
    2 x Evga GTX 780 acx running in sli
    Thermaltake Haswell approved 1275W PSU
    Lots of nice black sleeved cable extensions by NZXT for aesthetics and airflow enhancements
    Prolimatech Black GNSS cpu cooler + 3 x Corsair 2350 rpm SP 120s cooling the board and processor + providing insane strong airflow within the case , very quiet running at 1000 rpm
    + 1 Corsair Airflow series 120 high performance edition for exhaust



    Like many of us , Ive been planning my rig upgrade for years since being on the X58 chipset and reluctant to upgrade...until Haswell came along.

    Heres a live feed of my rig as it comes along . As of this writing it is almost complete .


    The story :
    I was running an i7 920 @ 4.2 Ghz and I just want to break that mark with my haswell . I will be delidding my 4670k and replacing the ghastly stock TIM with a arctic freeze 5 or whatever its called - this is supposed to enhance the thermal dissipation greatly.

    Ive seen benchers drop temps from 90C to 55C on youtube . Im doing it but this is a scary maneouver as Im going to have to hammer it in 2 using a vice .

    Ill post benchies with temp differences for those amongst us who would be interested in seeing what you get when you hammer your processor into pieces , clean it with a credit card and smear thermal paste on it .

    Apart from that , an avid gamer and photo editor .

    Thoughts ? Suggestions ? Feedback - BOTH positive AND negative equally embraced . I'll tweak accordingly .
