[Build Log] Bats Re-Build Thread!

[Bats]

Explanation: Early look into a mid life crisis I guess (unless I'm supposed to leave this mortal coil at 60 ). When I built this computer, I kind of just wanted it to work.. It's only my 2nd build. So it was all just thrown into the box and I was keen as mustard to have Windows on, installed and Updated as I knew that would be my "I'm the best maing I deeeed it" moment. And guess what? I got that feeling! But as you can see in the first image below, it's all over the shop . 

 

So I've decided to build log this on my own site, here and also via video log. I'm taking it apart, rearranging the management inside the case and then re-thinking the entire layout of my setup

 

I will be keeping things pretty short and sweet here, I'm not sure if I'd be able to link the build thread on my site in here or not, so for now I'll just leave it out but there will be a thread that will be a lot more detailed and have even more rambling on than I will be doing here (and am doing now )

 

Get on with it Bats.....

 

Okay.

 

Pic 1 - I had my computer on the floor for the last 4 months that I have had my puppies. They loved cords. Finally took it off floor as no more chewing. Opened it to see inside.. Hmmmmm:

 

So tomorrow I will start to take apart the beast. Clean it with some compressed air, put it all back together, take some flicks, take some film and get back to everyone on how I go

The inspiration is real!

 

Warning. Listen to the wise ones who tell you "Don't keep your computer on a carpeted floor".. I didn't

Here is the rest of the desk too. With a quick clean up as housemate is asleep so I can't move anything around.. Also I think I may be wearing through the floor under my computer desk
