7 Player VM Gaming Monster

Originally built as a four player box, work is nearing completion to squeeze 7 total gaming VMs into a 24" x 24" x 10" chassis. The base case is a Mountain Mods Pinnacle 24 with new custom cut 1/3-2/3 split side panels and internal midplate. She's cooled by an EK dual loop with three 360's and over 120 fittings. Updates are still coming, so stay tuned Emoji
