Nebula Revision 6

This is the sixth revision of my workstation and gaming rig Nebula. Built in a Phanteks Evolv Shift, I added milled front and rear panels from Mod My Mods to increase airflow, removing the filter from the front to maximize intake and replacing it with more breathable mesh filters on each front fan. The increased airflow has dropped my GPU temps significantly and I definitely recommend these panels for this case. I added the acrylic front fascia pieces to break up the front of the case and hide some of the structure, but I left the bottom open with some nice cable runs visible. I went to neutral black sleeved cables, I find that I prefer the color to come from the lighting, and I think the build looks gorgeous with all silver and black components. There is a touch of gold in the brass screws and pillars attaching the front fascia and I also replaced the standoffs and motherboard screws with brass ones, not that you can really see those. Nebula functions primarily as a workstation but definitely does its fair share of gaming as well. I couldn't be happier with where it's at right now. Info I couldn't include in hardware: Tablet Monitor is a Huion Kamvas Pro 13
Keyboard [For those interested in mechs] is an Input Club Kira swapped to Hako Clear switches, clipped and re-lubed, with DSA 2049 keycaps. I made the esc artisans myself.
