So after winning a free case, Silverstone SG06, at a LAN event, so I ask my dad if he needed a PC made. He wanted a DIRT cheap Windows PC as a server so he can run some test code on it for work. so after knowing that I decided not to use the free case but the one I had laying around, a IN WIN H-Frame Mini. 

 

So here are the Specs

 

MOBO: ASRock AM1H-ITX AM1 ($48)

CPU/GPU: AMD Athlon 5350 Kabini ($52)

Storage: Mushkin Enhanced ECO2 120GB ($55) 

RAM: G.SKILL Ares Series 8GB 1866 ($29) (was from a kit that had a dim that went bad, would of been cheap 4GB stick)

Case: IN WIN H-Frame Mini ($195) (what I originally paid for)

OS: Windows 8.1 ($0) (used a copy I bought for my desktop)

 

I have room for WIFI if he needs it.

No offence, but that isn't exactly the best case for a messy build in. It's a showpiece case. If it's just what you had lying around though, nice work on a cheap case.

its what i had laying around, it is hell to cable manage in that thing too. you almost can't put most of the cables in the back part. if I wanted it to look nice I feel like I would have to custom sleeve/length cables.

I love how I was going through the photos then I saw the last one and was like F*** ya! Amazing setup! Nothing compared to my Pentium II system running PCDJ that is for sure  :blink:

I think the coolest thing he has is the analog modular synth to the left
