Battle Stations

[eebiii]

Here is my daughter's battle station. I built this in 2019. It has been running the same coolant the entire time. Never changed it. Going to see how far it goes. Idle temp 32C. Superposition Bench medium 56C CPU and 48GPU. Thing gets better temps than my last 3 builds. Old tech I guess.

Like all your rigs it's super clean, great cable management, and cool LED lighting!

How do you like the Alphacool Eisball with the D5 pump? Is not an overkill is it? (I do like the design, having a colorful "ball" inside the case is unique - nice touch! 

[eebiii]

Thanks! @Sam_AMD 

The Eisball is pretty cool. Easy to work with and quiet. Definitely not overkill. I don't think a ddc pump would have worked right for the size of the loop.

hi again eebiii, where you a professional PC builder?  nice work again

[Sam_AMD]

Hi, @HeyDoeAUD 

imho, @eebiii is an artist, not just a builder eh eh eh...check out his "Steampunk Mod" build, you'll see why... 

[eebiii]

Thank you Sam! Maybe in 300 years, like van Gogh, My builds will be priceless. lol

There is a reality to all this and right now I am cutoff until I get everything cleaned up from the last 4 or 5 builds. Thats straight out of the bosses mouth. This has happened a few times before and having teenagers comes in handy. 😀

This is why I need a @BigAl01 workstation. But if I am going to do work, I just start working instead of setting up a nice work area. A sneak peek into this builder's life and why his wife is always on him. 

[Sam_AMD]

Your boss is right! It would drive me nuts having to live with that mess! Maybe she'll be the one that cuts off your ear. LOL! Jokes aside, I do the same to my man cave. After a few model kits, it turns into a disaster zone and it takes just a day for my boss to get on me. 

[eebiii]

LOL, You pretty much hit the nail on the head!

[BigAl01]

I would be concerned about static discharge when moving components around on the carpet.  Maybe your next build should be the custom work bench.

[eebiii]

I use a workbench to build although I have done some things I probably shouldn't have. 

[eebiii]

Thank you! @HeyDoeAUD 

Is there such thing as a professional PC builder? If there is and I could make a living off it, I would do it in a second. Think I'll be stuck doing electrical work for the rest of my life. And isn't retirement age around 80 now? So, I have another 30 years, lol.

[HeyDoeAUD]

Shiiet.  Its easier than being a sparky.  If you in the right part of the world i will start it with you.

I am in Colorado. It's basically impossible to find commercial property, even a small shop, unless you have a ton a cash on hand. Everything is too **bleep** expensive.

GG...
