So in July I brought my PC to a LAN party and some one spilled a soda into the PC while I was in the bathroom. After everything was said and done the motherboard and graphics card were toast. I was running fairly old hardware and I decided an upgrade was in order. So knowing I was currently working a summer job and I had a paycheck coming in I bought most of my parts:
i5 4690k
Gigabyte GA-Z97N-WIFI Mini ITX
EVGA GTX 980 SC ACX 2.0
Silverstone 500W SFX-L
And I had storage and RAM from the old build.
So I was going to wait for my check and get my case (Ncase M1) & a Corsair H105
The parts came in and I cardboard box test bench build the machine. The RAM was dead and I still hadn't gotten paid.
It is now September and I have FINALLY gotten paid (I don't want to talk about it)
And the Ncase M1 in Silver is currently out of stock and so I itching to get the machine finally running and now having more options has gone insane and thought up a few hairbrained schemes.
I have found the DAN A4-SFX
Which I think is only 7 liters and can fit full sized hardware. But isn't for sale until the end of 2015 after a crowdfunding campaign
I also fell in love with the Lian Li PC-TU100 (The very same that the Colugo was built in)
Which I feel makes even more sense with the new R9 Nano and is tempting me to sell my never used 980 and swap it out for a Nano
Or I can just wait til the Ncase M1 is back in stock
And just run my pc as a cardboard test bench while I wait
I am going a bit insane not having a desktop and am wondering if any of you have some suggestions
