    Project Alternate: PC in a desk scratch build & MODs   Hi all, After what feels like a very long year I have decided to start work on my new desk build. The idea for this desk came to me when i was working on my last desk & at one point I almost started the project  again, but I'm glad i didn't   Most people liked the desk & I learned a great deal during the build.   The Project Alternate design slightly changed month by month & I will show some of the other plans & explain why the changes was made. This time I'm hoping to outdo my last desk & hopefully help others in the process.    The desk work is about to start, using mostly MDF, Perspex, clay, metal & glass I plan to build the desk in 3 parts, starting from the bottom, then middle followed by the top section. the tricky parts will be the sharp corners & angles on the edges.   In making the desk in 3 parts it will allow for easy transport from my garden shed to my  very small room/office.   I plan to have the 2 reservoirs just under the top shelf so i can see the water flowing by   have a couple of different layouts for the internal components,  but want to wait until the top compartment is built so I can see IRL what looks & works best.   For the specs, I'm upgrading from my trusty i5-2500k to a i7-5820K, due to the CPU upgread I will also be using the new ASUS X99 TUF motherboard & DDR4   This time I will also go with 3 screens at 1440p if possible, or 1X 4K screen, so my HD7970s will also need upgrading to a R9-295x2.   The desk is going to take months to complete, so rushing out for parts now is not necessary unless it's something on sale I can't pass on   **UPDATE 18/10/15: some Specs**   SPECS CPU    - i7-5820k MB     - ASUS Sabertooth X99 RAM    - 32GB Avexir Blitz 1.1 (DDR4)  GPU    - ASUS R9-295x2 PSU    - Cooler Master: V1200 Platinum PSU2   - Cooler Master: GM750W Fans   - Cooler Master: Jet flow 120's & Cooler Master Silencio FP120 PWM  HDs    - Western Digital Green 6TB - Barracudas x2 2TB - Wester Digital Green 1TB SSDs   - 2x Samsung EVO850s 250GB (500GB) RADS   - 2x Phobya G-Changer 360 RADs V.2 RES    - 2x Phobya 450 reservoirs CPU WB - Alphacool NexXxoS XP³ Light PUMP   - 2x Alphacool VPP655 GPU WB - Alphacool NexXxoS GPX KB     - CM Storm quickfire xti Mouse  - CM Storm Reaper       For people that just want to see the photos & the build progress here are the build log vids The final will be added later.     Build log 1   Build log 2   Build log 3   Desk top lift     For past & present MODs/Builds please check my Facebook & Youtube pages.
