Been a while since I have built a system. Thought I would do a log and share this build!
I meet Josh(NFC Systems) last year, when he came out to Seattle to do an event with us at our laser tag arena. He brought us the Titan. One hell of a machine. We had an epic time. Machines went down. Mad hilarity ensued finding a ps2 keyboard, cause USB did some weirdness in the BIOs. I wound up finding one, screwed through the keyboard to the wall of my set. Well, delete and f12(or f8, whatever) worked, we got USB going and off we went. Right after we totally wiffed a high five. In front of the Seahawks, no less. Total geekery! LOL.
So, when we brought VR booths in, I wanted a new machine. So, I hit Josh up for an S4! We have the Titan he built, and a Paladin S3. Seemed only right we should rock the s4 in the house.
With that, I am starting Project: Artemis. The reason for the name will become more obvious later. I have something very special planned for this machine!
The build will consist of the following components and accessories.
NFC Systems S4 Mini in Blaze Orange w/flex cable and bulgin switch from NFC
MSI Z270I GAMING PRO CARBON AC
Intel i7-7700
MSI GTX 1060 Aero ITX 6G OC
CORSAIR Vengeance LED 16GB DDR4 2666 Memory
SAMSUNG 960 EVO M.2 250GB SSD
Noctua NH-L9i 95mm SSO2 CPU Cooler
Dell 330w power brick
HD-Plex Internal Power
Razer Deathadder Chroma
Corsair k70 Rapidefire RGB keyboard
GAEMS m240 Monitor
GAEMS Picatinny Rail Mount
GAEMS Vanguard Case
Misc cable, flex wrap, etc.
I will probably look at another fan to mount on or over the Noctua. The color throws off my scheme.
I am only waiting on the mobo to start. I messed up and ordered a z270, not a z270i. I got screwed by the letter "i". Painful! Oh well, Newegg was kewl about it, even with the 15% restock. My bad!
Pics of unboxing and such coming soon!
Big shout out to Josh for my questions, the case and parts, and building us some epic awesome machines! I have 15 machines in this building built by Josh. 13 VR machines, the Titan and the Paladin. Let's make it 16!
