Beast-2019

Beast is my Linux workstation. It powers 6 - 24" Dell monitors with dual NVIDIA GTX 960s. This is my first custom water cooled build - currently only the CPU loop, using all EKWB parts.

Beast has 128GB of memory a AMD TR-1950X, loads of SSD and NVME storage and is connected to a 10GB network.

Storage:
Mirrored Samsung SSD 850 EVO 1TB
Mirrored Samsung SSD 860 PRO 512GB
Mirrored Samsung NVME 960 PRO 512GB

Primary use case is Linux work, virtualization, testing, as well as typical office uses - email/browsing/documents.
