Pre-Phanartic

This was my first attempt at building. It was done in summer 2018, when at the time many of these parts were second/third tier availability. I kept it modest but didn't want to skimp too much. Cable management was clearly lacking, but I'm pleased with my parts selection and the balance of them all. Modifying the ODD cage was a pain, but I was really committed to the full length rad and the fan controller. I liked the analog feel that it added.
