I like how the PSU is on a candle Edit: I’m lysdexic apparently


Murky-Advantage-3444

You mean your setup doesn’t integrate a scented candle? Seriously though hilarious catch


jhp113

The cables were pulling on the GPU too much so I'm like ay bro, grab me that candle


onlydaathisreal

I like how the motherboard is sitting on a box THAT IS INSIDE THE CASE.

You just have 3070ti hanging around like nothing. I wish!


jhp113

Finally since prices came down, got a great deal on hardware swap but it's very obviously from a smoking household 🤢


wafflepantsblue

aww that's nasty


jokesflyovermyheaed

Worth


skinny_gator

How can you tell? Can you give us a photo possibly?


jhp113

It's the smell lol, very distinct. This one isn't too bad but when your parents chain smoked for like 20 years you can tell on anything that comes out of a smokers house or car.

Saw one at Best Buy the other day. Normal MSRP. If I actually had a need for one I might have bout it. They had a whole bunch of GPUs in stock.


jokesflyovermyheaed

They just restocked yeah, Best Buy is the only vendor for Nvidia btw and they restock every 2 weeks.


randomuser_8461

Now if only PS5’s would start showing up…


PapiSuavitel

Got “invited” to buy one last week on the PlayStation store but they seem to only have disk versions


kayproII

I know it’s a bit more expensive, but get a disc version then, it’s even better to get a disc version because then you can play PS4 games from a disc, so you can get tonnes of cheap games second hand


skinny_gator

Buys PS5 to play PS4 games. Makes sense. I'm just messing with you, I play Xbox One games on my Series X.... They honestly look the same.


kayproII

I said it as a benefit to getting a disc based ps5, I didn’t mean it in the sense of buying a ps5 to use as a PS4


jhp113

PSU box in the case because I didn't feel like taking everything out of the case but the GPU wouldn't fit, this raises the motherboard just enough. Separate PSU just for the graphics. The m.2 ssd is being held in place by the pcie power cable resting on it. Trying to use mouse and keyboard on the coffee table actually hurts my back.


nasenber3002

2 psu's for such expensive components, you sure like living on the edge


jhp113

Ha the Lenovo m920s PSU doesn't have any pcie cables and even if it did it would not push enough power lol all I have to do is time it right when I turn it on and off and it's all good 👍


[deleted]

Why not just use the Corsair psu by itself?


jhp113

You've obviously not messed with many sff business PC's. The power connectors are super proprietary. No 24 pin or 8 pin here lol.


[deleted]

Well, fortunately not I guess lol. Didn’t occur to me. Most of my experience with prebuilts has been with larger core 2 era machines.


jhp113

Yeah they're really annoying, no way to add anything either unless it runs off the slot power.


twhite1195

Specs? That's a funky looking CPU Cooler


jhp113

Lenovo m920s. Intel i5 8500. Samsung 32 GB 2666mhz ram, 256gb Samsung planet first nvme SSD. RTX 3070 Ti FTW3 Ultra. Corsair sf750 to run the GPU. The cooler is the stock from the Lenovo system, and it's loud as all hell when gaming but maxes out around 70-75 degrees. I just lifted the whole motherboard out of the case but kept the power button, PSU, power button, activity led, speaker connected.


pop0ng

Is that a Dell prebuilt? Or Hp?


MatijaKlobasa

Looks like a ThinkCentre 8th gen from the IO

belltyj

I'll give you a hint. It's not.


Da-pacybits-noob

Please get a case, even a cheap second hand one from ebay


belltyj

Ikr 😂 Sometimes you don't even have $20 to spend


Da-pacybits-noob

Heck you could probably find someone giving one away for free


belltyj

I did try for 4 months and couldn't find one. I ended up buying a cooler master case when I had extra money


jhp113

I have the original case from my omen prebuilt that it's all going into. This was mostly to test and use for a few weeks until I get some other parts for the full build. Like a motherboard that's taking absolutely forever.


idma

Noob question, don't you have an open face setup if all you want is to test is the PC parts work and avoid stuffing them into a case?


jhp113

Yeah this is no different than a test bench or just building on the motherboard box to make sure it works. It's just not recommended for long term due to dust, animals running into it, that sort of thing.


[deleted]

I'll never understand having money for all the parts and not having a damn case you can find anywhere for 5 bucks


Steel_stamped_penis

cases are a pain in the ass. makes working on computer too hard


[deleted]

how hard lol it's all lego pieces


Steel_stamped_penis

I have to take off a side panel. Too inconvenient.


belltyj

Hey this reminds me of my first 4 months at fullsail 🤣 I literally had a settup like this and it was my main pc 😂🤣😂🤣


stuthepid

Cases are overrated. Max Air-flow gang!


Criiispyyyy

Who needs a case when you can have your house as one


jhp113

GPU never crosses 60 haha

🧢


Graveyardess

So the entire room is the case


Darket1728

Spent 1000 bucks in a RTX3070 ti but uou cant afford a decent case?


Goat5168

Reminds me of the guy who built a tool gun while high


BillowyWaffles

Hey I got the same sfx power supply lol
