One of the DDR3 sticks in my old build died and instead of buying a new kit to replace it I decided to simply build a whole new system and turn whatever is left from the old one into a NAS.
I decided to use ITX as I wanted this to be portable enough so I could easily take it to the room I set up VR in instead of messing around with extension cables which I previously used.
In the current iteration I'm running CPU at 4.8GHz using 1.25V, scored 1120 points in Cinebench. GPU is running the same overclock as in my previous build, +220 on Core and +430 on Memory. Temperatures at full load stay around 60 Celsius, which I'm honestly rather surprised by given how small the radiator is and how little room to breath it has. The whole thing actually gets rather warm to touch after a while, hence the name.
The build spans a few months since I had to work on it in my rather limited free time, I was already working on a few other things and this brought out the perfectionists in me (especially with the tubing and wiring..).
Things I still plan to do / improve on: - Build a stand - Finish work on the window, this includes threading mounting holes, swapping out screws for some nicer looking ones, possibly painting them too. - Custom sleeved ATX power cable, I will need to figure out a way to get the cables to where they need to go while having enough room for the sleeving.
Build started in November 2018. Please see the updates below for more information and pictures.
