At least i don't want it to be too outdated 3-4 years down the line. 

How else does one store copious amounts of gentleman's erotica.

 

Yes but i like the overhead. 

 

Fractal towers are boring

Erotica can be stored on a HDD unless you want faster thumbnail loading times?

 

Fine

 

Case mods

You could probably save a good chunk of money by Samsung EVO instead of the PRO model.

 

And I part of me wants to suggest an external audio solution. There are many good AMP/DAC's you can get.

That did bring the price down slightly.

 

Yeah but i want to de-clutter my desk a bit.

@techswede AMD GPU's are at a premium right now thanks to ethereum miners

Over here in Sweden prices haven't been affected much, if at all.

Doubt his character will make a return

The thumbnails have to load quickly.

 

Still don't want one. Don't really want the corsair case either. 

Would like the Phanteks Enthoo with the glass side panel.. But shipping glass with PostNord is idiotic..

Hopefully prices drop in the coming months.

Depends how good you are at reading and taking tests really... there is no practical examination which is why I don't like ASE. I'm good with electronics and engine performance, so that was easy. I'm probably going to struggle with stuff like brakes, manual transmission and drivetrain, steering and suspension. L1 test should be easy for me. 

I'm good at both but what I'm working on isn't as much effort, it's just slow going.

Fair enough.

 

Why you print it out, how else do you do it?

I could go on back and fourth about what I would personally would/wouldn't do. But it's not me putting a computer together for myself

 

Example, I would get an air cooler (Noctua), and a M.2 NVMe SSD instead of a SATA based one.

well that's saddening. i wonder how he'll be killed off in the show, because you can't have mayor west just abruptly disappear from the show.

Yeah, I'm making this process slow because I get distracted. I've heard of guys being certified and never stepping foot in a shop. Its a big cash dump to become certified as well (expect $300-400 depending on how much you take at a time)

I'm going slow because my hand starts cramping up after writing for ten pages.. Dx

 

That's a lot of money to invest in this, hopefully it pays off for you.

Yes. Printing every frame of 60fps HD porn films on paper. Because that won't take up space

Believe me. I tried to rationalize much of it away. But i'm just here like Gul'dan from the warcraft movie going.. "But i need them.. I need all of them" 

 

I'd like to try watercooling. Preferably a custom loop. So what i picked seemed like a good compromise.

Not too keen on M2 drives. But i'll consider it.

Yes, I mismatched AMD/Nvidia. Yes, i may have cheaped out on a thing or two. But it's still a pretty good system, even if you splurge a bit more on some parts.

Flipbooks are all the rage though.

Most movies are filmed at like 24 fps....

That 1060 is going to shit itself when Cyberpunk 2077 is finally out though. 

But the beachball is tempting i'll give you that.

I could always go full hipster with an old cinema projector.

Yes but those are for the lower classes.

Throw in another 1k and get a 1070.

Of course the free beach ball is tempting. Who wouldn't want one?

Please don't go full hipster. I get enough of them already considering I live in hipster central in Stockholm.

Thanks, its a bit aggravating because you dump all this money just so you can get hired, then they send you off to more schooling from the manufacturers to get even more certifications to work on their cars.

Work your way up to become an engineer for one of these companies and try to make some stuff more idiot proof.
