Dell Optiplex

BleachedFur

Specs:

 

Xeon E3 1240 (i7 2600)

16GB DDR3 1600

 

GTX 1660 6GB (PNY Best Buy Exclusive)

Sabrent 120GB SSD

2x Seagate ST31000524AS

Corsair GS600 (yes I know the GS are shit, I got it for free)

Dell Optiplex 3010 System Board

Dell Optiplex 3010 Chassis

 

E3 load temps are about 55c, using Arctic MX-4 2019 Edition with 1000rpm Thermaltake case fans.

The drive sleds have been painted red, the images are not reflective of this.
 

inb4 someone comments about the motherboard being painted:

 

Less than 1mm of high heat nonconductive paint isn't going to affect the board or cooler in any way, shape or form. All ICs, VRMs, connectors, and chips were masked before applying paint. Your concern is misplaced. This motherboard has thermal sensors all over the place and they are all at around 30 to 40c which is the exact same as a non-painted version I have. A nice little program called Speedfan tells me what's going on.

Nice PC

 

Is it possible to install anything in the external drive bays? It seems like the cables from the PSU would interfere with anything in there.

those are for 5 inch drives and I was debating putting in a Blu-Ray drive but I don't use physical media any more and neither do the kind of people I sell to so it's pointless.
