Some huge numbers compared to last month. Love to see it. Also glad it's over so I can turn some of this crap off.

I already have a fan in the window and a box fan circulating air through the room. It's just a small room to have so much hardware in. Also on the 2nd floor so even though I have the vents shut to that room to keep the heat from the HVAC out, it still gets the heat rising through the floor.

Yea I can do whatever, but after the foldathon. It's hot as balls in the office and I don't have PS on my other PCs

There is no damn way I could turn everything up to 11 outside of the winter months. It's just above freezing outside and with two windows open the ambient temp in the office has still been in the 80s. I don't mind 72 in the winter but 48 is a lot easier to commit to the rest of the time.

I can recreate it in higher quality when I get done being lazy and hungover.

Really wasn't planning on any 4000 series for a while but them open box deals be crazy sometimes. Grabbed some AM5 goodies for my other ongoing builds.

All the cool kids are jumping ship and coming over here. I've moved all my rigs over to this team and haven't even looked at the state of folding at OCN in about a year. It was already pretty sad back then.

I like photographing flowers but I'm terrible at painting lol. My degree was a mix of graphic design and video production. I'm actually pretty bad at most traditional art now that I think about it. Round stickers are a nice addition.

Lol did they make a new EK TEC that isn't ass? Last I checked it was a $500 gimmick that couldn't handle any semi spicy multicore load. I'm guessing it's also in everyone's favorite O11D with an EK distro. Obviously they have money to burn. I have faith that out of any of us, you can guide them to a decent build.

I think this is your best version of this theme yet. Which pushing you along was ultimately my goal in remixing your work. That's not something I normally do, but I really respect that you are taking it upon yourself to generate not just one but multiple different merch options. I actually have a BFA in digital art and design, but I've just been in a rut after a lot of personal issues so I stepped away from art. I have been wanting to start doing more creative work though. I'll eventually get to making more of my own work but if you ever need someone to critique your work or bounce ideas off of, I'm always wiling to help.

OCN watercooling is the Coolest™ new dating app. Definitely best to talk for a bit before going out for drinks and airing out what you both expect from the relationship. Can't be a slut that brings someone home and builds a PC on the first date.

Right but this seems more like help an OCN homie not a quit my day job and become a boutique PC builder situation.

Why don't you go to them? When I was last trying to sell a custom loop PC on FB marketplace I had a guy hit me up asking for help. I just showed up at dudes house with a box of tools and a heatgun and did a custom loop on their kitchen table.

I actually liked the grid better on the original... I decided to put on some future funk and combine both of your versions into a new take. Hopefully you don't mind.

At this point I have a reputation to uphold. Couldn't come in here with some bland default color stats.

I don't think the logo recolor works well with things like the gradient or whatever this is supposed to be. I'd just flatten the whole logo and make it the same color as the other text. As for the other ideas, I think the modded GPU would look cool to fill that space.

While I was out of town for work, some goodies showed up. Reference 6950XT and some custom cables for my travel PC refresh I never actually checked the dimensions and didn't realize how small the reference AMD cards were. Makes my 3090FTW look dummy thicc in comparison. Can't wait to get the waterblocks on and see how this combo does. For this temporary setup I'm gonna try just a single external 4x120 rad with T30's. That isn't as overkill as I normally do but I'm thinking it will actually work great. Also not pictured, but an adjustable pedal plate for my racing sim was also delivered which I'm excited to actually be able to use soon.

Welcome! Custom liquid cooling never makes sense when looking at price to performance but it's a lot of fun. Just had a look at the builds you linked and you have some great platforms to work with.

Nice thing about upgrading older platforms is finding deals on stuff. Funny enough Titanrig is the seller via the Amazon link you posted, but buying the same block from them directly from their site it's on sale for $42.50 Watercool HEATKILLER IV GPU Water Block for RTX 2080 Ti, RGB, Acryl Ni (4251312603663) WWW.TITANRIG.COM The HEATKILLER? IV VGA series is manufactured for high-performance water cooling for grapgics cardsCompatible with NVIDIA Geforce RTX...

Yes, I was planning on giving away 5 of the larger and 5 of the smaller stickers this foldathon.

Well I guess I'll be torturing my Arc soon. Gotta play with my new 6950xt first though

Yep +1 for cars and audio. Additionally enjoy being outside. I like things like kayaking, target shooting, and walking.
