One quirky detail of my build: it has a tiered storage system through FuzeDrive. What that means is I have an 8 TB shucked hard drive and a 128 GB SSD “fuzed” together through some old software by Enmotus that is no longer available for purchase iirc. This means the SSD acts as a cache for my huge 8 TB drive. As a result, I can just install basically any game I want to my massive 8 TB drive without worrying about space, and if I play that game more than once or twice, it’ll automatically move to the SSD portion for faster access.
Some ideas:
- Is this using used hardware that has a story?
- Got an unusual configuration that isn’t normally seen (Dual RTX 3070 for example)
- Did you paint it or add special lighting?
I opted to use an old Cooler Master CPU fan from a Windows Vista eMachine that I had in my home. Went from cooling a AMD Athlon X2 to a AMD Ryzen 7700X.
Having looked up the model number when building my PC, it’s apparently a model that wasn’t meant to be sold individually, or at least, I couldn’t find any places that sell or sold that specific model previously, beyond a few old eBay listings.
May not be the best practice to re-use old CPU fans like that, but monitoring the temps when running higher-end games, it seems to be doing the job just fine!
