Well luckily the pictures I posted was a build I was doing for myself but I can easily sell it to a friend who has been eyeing it and even offered to buy it from me now comes to problem of moving the damn thing since I had to cut out the Ikea wood for the radiator.


I use to run Dells a long time how comparable are they now to the Asus line? I know theres a few other companies out there but I havent been on the market for new monitors.

I'm currently using a pair of 2412's, I love them, save for slight ghosting issues. I'm hoping the 2713 will be better. picture, colour and build quality put my old asus to shame, but then again, my last monitor was 3 years old, lol

Also placed an order for my first watercooled 780, cant wait to get some battlefield time in

Just purchased this fine laptop from xoticpc. Sager NP7352. Finally got to order it after getting my xps heat issues. Never again will I throw money at such a crap company. 4th gen i7 here I come!

I want to do individual wiring sleeves for my wires.
Just swapped over my cases from my old thermal take to a new corsair 500r

I've done the individual sleeves a lot. Its a pain in the but to accomplish everything but it just makes it look so clean in the end. If you need some references on where to get good quality ones lemme know

Added 2 more drives

Bought 2 more 3tb drives to complete my server.



The Official PC Thread-raid5migrationtoraid6.jpg

Added them to the RAID and decided I had enough space so only went up in capacity with 1 drive and changed the Raid5 array to Raid6. Total capacity is 13.6TB now, and I'm only using 4TB so far.

A bit faster even though redundancy was increased to 2 drives. This computer should have no issue serving media and running my IP cameras.

BEASTMODE!

I think the only thing you can say about that setup is beast mode. Nice stuff! How many cameras are you running that requires that much memory haha
