Hi all.
This is my introductory post, so I guess I should do the typical overview history and location type job.
Where am I from? Australia
How long have I been building computers? Since I was a teenager some 30+ years ago.
SFF before? Nope. Never. Looking into my first small form factor right now, and am leaning heavily on the custom build route currently due to a distinct lack of cases that interest me.
Custom PC before? Yes. Many times. And many iterations. Have done both air and water cooling.
Work in IT? Yes. 20+ years there too.
Current Hardware? Ryzen 5600X, Powercolour LiquidDevil 5700XT, ASRock B550M-ITX/ac, 32Gb RAM, 3 SSD's, 1 NVME, 1 HDD, Super Flower 1000W PSU
Case? Fractal Designs Define S Watercooling with Window
Cooling? Alphacool UT60 360mm Radiator, Singularity Computers 200mm Reservoir, Phanteks Ryzen CPU Block, Hard tubing (switching to soft with SFF case), 5x Corsair SP120 (the old ones; these fans are probably >10 years old now).
Any Mods? I did have a custom wrap job on the case at one point, but I got bored with it and removed it. Have done mods to CPU and GPU blocks and Radiators in the past.
Discord? Yes. Actually, it's how I came to be here.
