Steelcase think chair and Thermaltake Xaser VI cabinet


I was under the impression that it's not a serious issue. In my current cabinet there is no other option to put the AIO cooler. Buying a new cabinet is easy but assembling it and disposing the current one is going to be a pain. Any other solutions to improve the life?
I know your pain buddy. I know the Pain :banghead:
 
Just got delivered ! It’s a replacement
Though I asked them to ship a new gpu cable also so it’s replacement plus new one too.

My fileserver from 2009: A Pentium on an Intel media series Mini-ITX motherboard inside of a Lian Li case. A 120mm front intake was modded, and the single 3.5 drive sled was removed and reattached to a Lian Li 3x3.5" drive cage. This pushed the Silverstone 360w power supply outside. The case, powersupply, drive cage, 120mm filter, aluminum rivets were all purchased from Performance-PCs.com. Back then there were no customs charges levied on packages coming through India Post so I'd ship everything with USPS. The drives are 2x1.5tb and 2x1tb with Windows Home Server (I still have the install disk!).

After 10 years upgraded my gaming setup fully except cabinet and power supply. In-between was upgrading Graphics card every few years.

Before:
Intel QX9650
Zotac GTX 1080Ti Amp extreme
Asus rampage formula
Gskill 4GB RAM
3X Dell 2410 in eyefinity

Current:
AMD Ryzen 3800X
Nvidia RTX 3090 FE
Gigabyte B550 Aorus master
Gskill Ripjaws 16GB DDR4 4000
LG OLED 55 CX TV

My current setup serves triple purpose - Gaming/Entertaiment/WFH. The OLED is my primary work monitor as well.

Not the cleanest of wire management :/ The cabinet is tall and wires don't stretch enough

That slimness of OLED. Notice that I couldn't even make the camera focus on something so small :)

Paired with JBL-104 BT for music.

How is the performance of Gigabyte B550 Aorus master ?
 
I put together a system for another member the other day. It was a fun experience, as it always is, but a bit rushed because the system had to travel over 100km back home. I had three hours from unboxing to cable management. Usually, I'd set aside an entire day because I find it extremely therapeutic to work slowly and deliberately. My lab is currently overrun from neverending projects so here are some photos from the dining room:

The landing came to 146900, the cost of 3080 plus 70800 difference, the same card sells these days at 1.55L
why did'nt you though of getting a second hand card for temp like 2 month and then gettting the RMA 3080 ? The deal seems really bad to me. as you paid around same price in plus. and it you where ready before, you could have got it then at that time itself :rolleyes: it feels like you where forces into the corner o_O

Well this card is selling at 1.55L currently so i saved about 8k, 2 months is a long time to stay away from cyberpunk and my WC build which is in finishing stages.
