I'd go with a projector before a huge-ass TV... Unless 4k was something that was desired.

Woah neat, nicely done !

16

Whoa nicely done! Do you have any storage server in your network?

17

With the amount of money/time/effort that went into not only the building of the cave, but the specs on that rig, I sure as shit hope so. lol

Battery backup, NAS, something.

18

Ikr haha. I like that he thought about basically everything. + He only has SSD's in his rig so I'm sure he's got some massive storage unit in the house that can stream movies etc to the home cinema set

19

Nice catch, I didn't see he didn't have any major storage locally. I wouldn't (want to) believe it if he didn't have any server / network storage somewhere.
