Portable and Compact LAN build

Evolution.

Never really done one of these before but here it goes. im not about to start writing a novel so ill try to keep it brief. ive been switching from pc to pc the past few years and finally settled this is probably going to be my main build until the foreseeable future. Great Value brand Den-fi pics ahead. Also had to screen shot and reshape the existing pics to reduce the file size so the forum would accept it lol

Starting off with the case, the Enthoo Pro Tempered Glass. I chose it because of the 5.25" and 3.5" bays along with support for the 280mm AIO i have wanted a Corsair air 540 for the longest time but ended up settling for this because of price. This behemoth ticked off a lot of my requirements. you thought you came here for a portable build? sike boy this weighs a solid 65 LBS SPINAL
