Post A Pic Of Your Pc Here :)

Moved the PC to the spare room and got a new desk/drawer combo and some bias LED lights.

Gave my brother the ol' AMD FX build, and helped him transition the parts into his shiny new case. This is by far the best case I've built in. So spacious and plenty of room for cable management - not that I utilize it too effectively hehe.

Info on previous pic:

Yep, it's a beaut... this is actually an office PC cleverly disguised as a gaming PC. It doesn't have the expected gaming components (like a graphics card), but it was primarily intended for office applications; I just went overboard. It's kind of a blend of old and new. I even have a parallel port and serial port in the back.

And yes, that is a cosmetics organizer on top of the computer, which also makes a very dandy flash drive organizer.
(Don't laugh, you know you're thinking about getting one now.)

If you think the computer is a little junky on the case floor, you should see the office where it's located! Okay, I've got some cleaning/organizing to do.

Components:
Apevia X-Discovery case
Intel Core i5-4690K Devil's Canyon CPU
Gigabyte GA-Z97X-UD3H motherboard
Crucial Ballistix Tracer RAM – 16 GB
Samsung 850 EVO 500 GB SSD
Corsair RM650 PSU
 
Not pictures I took myself (Found em on Google), but these are pictures of the exact models of my 2 computers.

I thought you were dead.

Also I'm sorry but that whole set up still just looks comical with all that empty space and big tanks. What RTX card is that? Looks like a workstation card.

Come on dude, that setup is nice and clean and I'm guessing that card looks like that because of the waterblock.

To each his own. Like yeah it's well done but still looks ridiculous with the relatively tiny board in all that space.

The board may look a little on the small side relative to the large case that its in, but it isn't a small board, its a standard size for its class coming in at 30.5 cm by 24.4 cm with 6 pci expansion slots and it even reaches down to the 7th expansion slot in that case, but it is possible to install motherboards the next size up. The caselabs magnumsma8 is just a really big case and is idea for large custom loops with multiple radiators, and the space has been used up well with components being spread evenly throughout the case.

I'm sorry but calling this build comical is just ridiculous and not offering one shred of positive feedback until I weighted in speaks volumes IMO.

I'm pretty familiar with Calin and I've discussed his build with him on multiple occassions over the years. If you want to take a strike against my character because I think it looks funny then go right ahead. It's incredibly well done, just not my taste. I also personally find watercooling a bit unnecessary but to each his own. I bet most people would prefer a water loop over my big air cooler but I like it and it's my case so who's to say otherwise?

I do actually really like the color scheme, much better than some previous colors he had rolling thru that tubing in years past.

Couldn't have said it better myself. There are a lot of builds out there people love but I can't wrap my head around them. This is what I personally like, so that's what I went with :)
 
I been using an old NZXT case for years now and I've had 3 builds in it, so I decided my new parts should go in a new case. I know many people don't like RGB and I agree many RGB builds end up looking tacky, but I also think done well a bit of RGB can go a long way. The camera doesn't do the lighting justice and in real-life it isn't as bright.

Your cooler, case, and halo fans make it look like the dark version of my build. Very slick and tasteful RGB.

Thanks dude, My Asus xonar sound card has orange leds that cant be changed (maybe I could disconnect the led cable from the card) so I decided to go with it.

Even of my RGB stuff I just set it to white and haven't touched it since.
