Previous owner sent me some pictures - the one that convinced me to take the car and have a long trip to his home... hope to be not too much annoying, but I'm so excited of this PC!!!

(maybe I should get rid of this "Thrasher" sticker, though...)

Thanks guys!

More Thrasher stickers... if only I know what it is, really... I thought to replace it with a FanRes sticker, though! Big Grin

More GPUs? Big Grin why?!?

I had a crazy idea - surely not for now, but... what's about PCI-e SSD?

For 4K video editing, of course!

Well, the actual video card is suitable for that... but, when it will be the moment, I could always go with a Thunderbolt II EX internal card! Big Grin

As it is now, I think it has everything I need - except, perhaps, a further big hard disk - as I wrote before, I'm leaning towards a 6TB, even if it's quite expensive... but cost per GB should be similar to 3TB or 4TB, so...

Looks very nice mate. Cable management is very tidy! I'll keep my thoughts on comupters filled with LED's to myself though.

Well, as this is a second-hand PC (albeit it seems brand new), I took what it was available... and PCs with features like the ones I was after were almost, if not all, for gamers. I can assure you this is one of the most sobers - think about the others! Eek

I feel lucky to have found this - the guy who made it did a great job making this custom PC - I'm no expert about this field, but at least, it has LEDs of just one color, and only inside... others seemed, in no particular order:
a Christmas tree
a starship from a B-movie
an alien unknown gear
a Doctor Who futile stuff

Why not take liquid cooling to the next level?
