    Props to the new editing (not watched a vid for a while that isn't a weekly news update). A proper intro for new people is good to see, multiple angles was seamless. Loved this channel for years but seems to have a new feel to the content. Much more personable. And i like it. Great work and content as always.

      @@xephael3485 What are you talking about? Multiple PSUs, motherboards, cooling, local storage and RAM makes the price go up up up, not to mention the efficiency loss from having multiple systems (power draw) vs one or not having to think about PCIe lanes for interconnects and flash to have some semblance of running a single system.
      I've been in this position and was wanting to go with multiple Ryzens on a vSphere system (there's a pretty cheap trial license meant for testing but perfect for the homelab) for redundancy, but the math just didn't work out in the end. Biggest deal breaker was the PCIe lanes though because I wanted to go all flash AND go >100gbit through cheap 2nd hand mellanox nics.
      Must clarify that I was looking at a 3970x vs 4 3700, 64 cores would be too much for my use haha

  • @fttFrankDaTank
    @fttFrankDaTank 4 года назад

    I do often transport my PC's in my car to/fro work or to my girlfriends house. They are my workhorses, and I dont use them for serving so don't need them sitting in one place. I currently have 2 threadripper builds in corsair 780 cases with dual 360 radiators (everything is quite tight but managable with some organisational effort). They just about fit in the back seat of the car without too much hassle.
    These are great looking cases but I would think they are too big for transporting in a car (you'd need a van or SUV). The added volume this case provides would potentially be great for >2 GPU setups (with watercooling loops) or perhaps clusters of 3.5 HDDs, I personally do not need this, and I would opt for a NAS setup instead (utilizing the secondary onboard NIC). Not sure if people would be better off going toward a rackmount solution if they indeed needed this amount of space -- is there a unique selling point that I am missing?

      Water-cooled computers are usually set them and forget them. You don't really want to be lugging all that copper and water around.
      I had forgotten about Wendell's wheel mod. I need this for my Casemod. Event if I just get the stationary pads, the stance widening would make it much more stable.

    Hi, could you please tell me if an Arctic Liquid Freezer II 420 would fit in the top on this case ? I have clearance issues with my current Enthoo Pro, I had to unscrew the top of the chassis to fit the rad+fans....or else it would hit the VRM heatsink. By looking at your build, I think there would be no problem at all with this case, considering I need about 8cm to be completely okay. Can you confirm that ? Thank you !
