Something Skylake, something GREEN!

Thought I'd share a quick long-exposure snap of my latest Skylake build.

I don't know. There is a glowing Geforce GTX on the bottom. That must be some cool CPU they developed there

No GPU?

Does the top PC have a GPU?

[bsodmike]

Hi all - Top PC is running a Skylake i7 6700K, and has on-chip GPU.  It's powerful enough to run Crysis at 60fps, 1080p if one so wishes.

 

It is running now as a headless linux "server" for home/office tasks.  If I ever need to seriously game on it, I just need to drop a GTX 1080 in there.

 

The bottom box is my X99 6850K/ GTX 1080 build.

@Dawson, yeah I could run RTMP and do OBS streaming off-loaded onto that box if I want.  Planning to do so soon

The mobo has a HDMI connector, and I can boot into the UEFI BIOS/Ubuntu as needed that way.  Skylake chips have on-board GPU.  Great if you don't plan to seriously game.
