Helheim (Linux Only)

I use this rig to 3D model, game, run VM's, write hella code, and run various engineering programs like circuit simulators. Sometimes all at the same time.

This is in fact a Linux only build. So, in order to game, I use various softwares. Almost every game I have ever played on this rig has just works natively through Steam. Sometimes I do have to use alternative routes to get some games to work. However, these ajustments are pretty painless.

Update: Just finished mounting this PC to the wall. This is still an ongoing project. Next step is to add a monitor on that naked monitor stand.






I have named this computer after the land for which the Norse Goddess Hel rules over. I also decided the sex of the computer based on this naming scheme. After all, the only rightful place for a Goddess to rule, is that over man.
