We've all seen shit loadds of the "chuck the bits in a tank, fill with oil, feel cool" rigs.

But this deserves a special mention, IMO.

No denying that it's an impressive build but my god it looks like tat Sad

He would have been better off ditching the front panel nonsense and stacking the radiators vertically in there.

It is nicely done I guess but I'm not particularly envious.

And after all that he is running at 30 degrees Laughing Laughing Laughing

waste of time and money.

Last PC I built was two years ago. It is air cooled and moves about 1200cfm of air per minute. The CPU idles at 14-16 degrees and never goes past 32 degrees. It's great in the winter, don;t have to put the heating on!

This PC was not aimed to be a high performer, so I chose my hardware to be from low to mid system configuration.

My aim was for tech complexity that works as I intend it to.
