Big Bertha


Big Bertha


named after the famous howitzer.

The build is an ongoing project, I incorporated the case in december 2018.
The imperial cap on the AIO cooler was 3d-printed. I also integrated a small 7" screen inside the case to show status information. It is connected via HDMI internally. Two of the harddisks run in RAID 1.

The next steps will be an upgrade to Ryzen 3000 when it is released and a custom loop water cooling. Also cable management is still a WIP.
