Last time I bought a Desktop PC component was the Radeon R290 at launch.

Since then I have traded laptops, tablets and consoles like a madman.

I wonder how the Desktop PC market will perform in the next years. Pandemic was a huge boost, but eventually it will contract again because the value proposition has not lowered as expected.

BEHOLD
Gaze upon my case, ye mighty, and despair!

The new case for my homemade NAS. Conveniently posed next to to my current #NAS for size comparison

New motherboard arrives this weekend, I've already got all 24TB of my old drives loaded into this MF case alongside my lil 128GB SSD Boot drive and 256 and 512 cache SSDs

This weekend finna go craaaaaaaazy.

That's a cooler master Storm Stryker i found on Offerup for $40. Vintage circa like 2013 or some shit.

No kill like overkill for what's about to be some regular home backups and servers for Plex and SyncThing

I see LG now sells a model of the superb 28-inch 16:18 aspect ( = 4:4.5 aspect ) 2560x2880 display lacking the desk-clamp arm in favor of a more traditional desk stand for $100 less.

Total price = $599

This is the best display I have ever used. It is the main display on my Mac Studio.
