Computer Name: Drift
Intent: Make a bleeding-edge Production/Gaming Hybrid PC that is based on the 3rd Gen AMD Ryzen 9 CPU lending it production-level capabilities to a top tier gaming experience leveraging PCIe Gen4 but doubling it's role with SATA drives for content generation storage and backup purposes, all wrapped up in an aggressive open-air chassis with "No snake" cable management, custom cables from the PSU combined with custom liquid cooling loops from a distro plate. Wish me luck!
.
Case, Fans and Cooling: Antec Torque Open-Air Gaming Chassis (
