Main goal of this build was to feature high end hardware from 2017-2018 era. I also wanted to keep visual vibe, so no RGB - only lighting comes from LEDs on the mobo and single color Corsair ML fans. All modded parts were designed by me and made from matte plexiglass. That includes both bottom panels, front panel and masking plate replacing 5.25 cage. Plexi window was also replaced by tempered glass.

Cpu die is lapped using 2000 and 10000 grit stone made for knife sharpening. Der8auers direct die frame is also lapped to compensate for the lower silicon height and keep good mounting pressure.

Additionally GPU was modded by soldering two 5mohm resistors in parallel in order to increase power limit (not really much use for daily but I also wanted to grab some HWbot points).
