Im In!

 

Reference or aftermarket? I want to see how well various aftermarket ones do as far as heat and noise go.

Both will be aftermarket.

I'm getting a RX5700 in for review next week and should have a 5700XT shortly after that, I'm looking forward in getting them on the bench.

The build is a prototype.

 

I cut the extrusion on a miter saw fitted with an AL cutting blade. The sheeting is rough cut on a table saw then onto a CNC router:

 

 

Cool stuff, I have a CNC as well tho don't use it as much as I should .

 

This week I've been working on this case:

Got any photos of some of your scratch builds? On of these days I hope to do one.

Running websites is nothing particularly new to me. I have run others, but not my own. So this is new venture for me running my own baby

It's fun for sure, I have had a few hobby sites I have created just to learn new coding practices. Definitely nice having something that's your own than working on someone else's website

@ENTERPRISE Thanks man, Ya myself haven't done much modding either as reviewing has taken the lion share of my time. Your going to have even less time now your running a website . I know how much work it can be as I'm a web developer in my day-to-day job.

@Duality92 Thanks man

Just wanted to introduce myself. I'm James from Canada and have been building/using PCs since the mid-'90s. Over the past 4+ years, I have gotten into the PC modding scene and doing things like custom cables and CNC work. For the past year, I have been Hardware Reviewer at ProClockers and have reviewed everything from Keyboard's to GPUs.

I look forward to helping out fellow members and learning new things along the way.
