So Just build the Sit-Stand desk
PC 2 Build V1.0 Not clean but at least everything can breathe.
PC 2 Build V1.5 Dual 980TIs I hate the case... and it's a little cramped....but for 30 bucks... can't complain to bad.
With the cover on looks pretty beast from the side. Still really really hate the case though.
Much better case.... not much more room... actually less when I did the math...Thinking, "Oh, Shit!" "This is gonna be fun"
Trying to figure out how the hell I was going to fit all this hardware in this small ass case... I like the front panel so much on this case, plus the great airflow.
Cable Nest before zip-ties.
This was my set up before I got my new BenQ Monitor. Custom sit-stand desk with a carbon vinal wrapped top surface. Weird O- thing to the left is actually my Philips sunrise alarm clock, I have to wake up super early, so between that, and my Philips Hue lights kicking on in the morning I can normally get up far before the sun rises.
Outside of the case looks relatively normal, however, I actually had to cut out the entire inside of the front panel. That allowed me to sandwich the 280mm RAD and dual 140mm RGB Fans into this case. Just barely allowing enough room for the giant three slot Zotac AMP! Extreme Edition 980TIs to fit... with almost no room to breath. So I to somewhat hold them apart with a custom cut GPU stand that pushed one card up and pulled the other down. Using black zip ties to further reduce strain on the motherboard. To me, it came out looking pretty clean, all things considered. The case was really not meant for this much hardware.
PC2 Build V2.0 Closer look... no space for anything!!!
So this is the second update to my second ever build. New case, Lights, Fans, CableMods, few others here and there. The third update will be here soon.
Christmas Theme, Black Friday Monitor Deal! 100hz, HDR, 35in Ultra-Wide 21:9 1440p Display, a bit of an upgrade!
Pretty Colors, plenty of options, and oh yeah...update time...
So Update Time: PC2 Build V2.0 I got really sick of the SLI errors, Overheating, Lack of support for games, and last but not least I wanted G-sync support (10 series and up cards only for free-sync support.) Switched to an EVGA SC2 1080TI Hybrid "WOW, That's small!" (That's what she said) (Beat ya to it!) OH YEAH! I got VR too... Oculus RIFT, my room is just too small for VIBE, and let's be honest until they get their version of touch controllers out it's just not worth it. Still
ThunderDome
So this is the Build Log for my second PC build. First one was built for work, and unfortunately, due to the sensitive nature of that PC, I was not able to keep it after the Company that I previously worked for was sold. Started this build at the beginning of 2016 when I saw a sweet deal on Zotac amp extreme edition 980ti for $200!!! (before Crypto got big.) Picked up parts slowly throughout 2016 when stuff was on sale and had my pc to its V1.0 state by about August of 2016. Slowly been adding to my setup since then. Please check out my photo's, the progress, and updates are largely posted on them. If you have any questions please let me know. I'll update more on this details page when I have time! Enjoy!
