Overkill on the links, so I'm assuming it's an epic overkill build?

I still think a reverse sleeper would be funny.  Fanciest, nicest case you can find with total garbage components in it xD 

Solve your own audio issues  |  First Steps with RPi 3  |  Humidity & Condensation  |  Sleep & Hibernation  |  Overclocking RAM  |  Making Backups  |  Displays  |  4K / 8K / 16K / etc.  |  Do I need 80+ Platinum?

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.

Have a curved tempered glass cosmos ii case, shows off intel heatsink inside and a low profile single slot mini gt710 inside. BEAUTIFUL

I've got the parts if they need them, got a few PC's from that era floating around.

Well they already have those two 7100 GSs, and their custom CPU heatsinks made out of poorly cast aluminium, so that's a start xD

i did it wrong...

the orignal yellowed white sidepanel actually does fit overtop to seal off the beauty, but its not much of a sleeper if its still 1995 hardware :P

--

on topic, that build is something i'd totally do if given the chance to. reminds me.. i still got an old HP workstation case with only slight traces of capacitor acid...

Heh, doing the same thing shoving my workstation hardware into a 2001 case, but fortunately I'm doing external watercooling so I don't have to fuck around with mounting rads and can use a much smaller case than the one in the vid.

 

LED strips aren't period correct though, should have cold cathodes.

Server Router (Untangle): 13600k @ P-Core only || ASRock Z690 ITX || All 10Gbe || 2x8GB 3200 || PicoPSU 150W 24pin + AX1200i on CPU|| whole-house loop
