I'll never do it again. My last build I had a water cooler and it ended up leaking on everything. Had to start from scratch

my ghetto rendering and gaming rig. built it inside a cheap utility case cause i can't afford a good powerful laptop at the moment. portable enough, renders twice as fast as an expensive gaming laptop. super silent too with the dual fan on the MSI and gigantic heat sink.

haha. thanks. the things that you'll do when you are broke and you have power tools to build things with... i have a friend who built his PC inside a military grade (i believe) pelican suitcase. that was a more difficult build because the plastic was hard to drill. mine was cheap and easy. actually copied his idea.

Gaming, just gaming. Oh I also practice my Rosetta stone Spanish with it In all honesty it's way over the top. This is the 3rd rig I've built and it becomes an obsession once I get started. I'll be building my next one around the upcoming Maxwell architecture.
