February 15, 201610 yr Author Hands down, the nicest most impressive work of computer art that I have seen. Thank you for the kind words - much appreciated Guys :wink: What about the noise ? Is it noisy ? No pump noise which surprised me - fans can be loud if I turn them up but I really dont have to max them out must be the large radiators - amazing temps Great job and thanks for sharing. Greg Thanks Greg - sorry cant travel with this - just way to heavy and would not want to damage it - as it is white it could go south very fast so I do cover it in plastic cover when not in use - few more things to button up - cosmetics :wink: Rich Sennett

February 15, 201610 yr Now I wonder, would any Goflight modules fit on the front of that Obsidian...? Simmerhead - Making the virtual skies unsafe since 1987!
February 15, 201610 yr Author Now I wonder, would any Goflight modules fit on the front of that Obsidian...? Barley got my components in it - now a caselabs thats a different story - huge case - hence wheel for it to roll it around Rich Sennett
February 15, 201610 yr Barley got my components in it - now a caselabs thats a different story - huge case - hence wheel for it to roll it around Maybe I should check out that one then... Nice to implement some of the peripherals in the case to make it useful, instead of just being in the way Simmerhead - Making the virtual skies unsafe since 1987!

February 19, 201610 yr So this thing up and running? Is it used as a daily? When are the official glamour shots being released? This PC should be on PC Gamer or MaximumPC or something.

I know moving around that monster, especially with water in it, is something that requires alot of coordination and strength and a bad back makes that much harder. You look young though so I am sure you will muster the strength soon enough when you are feeling a little better. Speedy recovery to you sir. Let me guess.... you want 64bit. Josh Daniels-Johannson
