Long time no see. Upgrade time.

Yeah ain't that the way bro lol.

I might use some black vinyl over the glass tbh. I mean I never see it due to where it is set up but yeah...

We'll see. I should be starting on it early October. Had a marathon of things to do before I go away for a week then it is back to this.
 
Actually I forgot, I DO have an update. I have had one of the most manic weeks of my life. I decided to do a few things at home that I did not realise would take days. First job was mounting a 27 inch IPS above my bed on a bracket. That is now done, Fire stick connected and then connected to a Bose bluetooth speaker I have had on my wall since I moved in.

Also after many months of serious issues with no resolution I decided to look elsewhere for broadband. Was with Now, but it seems the price belies the help you get when it does not work - none. I know the router is knackered because it keeps rebooting. 11 times on Sunday and 6 on Monday. As such after a lot of research...

You need to check coverage very carefully, though.

I am about 20 metres up in the top of a building surrounded by antennae? is that the correct word for a S load of them? Any way, it screams.

Sadly it seems my switch is also rubbish. I kinda knew this when I bought it but they were proper expensive then 18 months ago and it cost me 60 quid for a four port. So I bought this used for 76.

I also forgot the goodies are all here.

I mean come on man. Tizer and coffee. Days don't get better than that :D

Also you can see from the pic I changed out my rear speakers as well as doing a bum load of wiring on the AV front so these.

Will now be used on the PC. Well, once I have given them a good clean.
 
Quick update minus pics.

The inside of the PC is mostly done. Pics inbound later today as I have sort of no PC to post them from.

What I mean is the PC I was going to use (a very high end NUC) started acting up whilst I was on holiday. I was supposed to be using it as a stand in whilst this one was down but discovered it had a malware type virus on it that can't be removed.

Turns out it uses the winring vulnerability which MS have now banned and key Logs. Seems it came from the 60% Chinese keyboard I bought but thankfully can't log much as I've only ever used it for gaming and don't type on it.

That meant it will need nuking completely and I just haven't had time to do that yet. Hence the no pics as im posting on my phone.

Will upload them later.

The coolant flush didn't go so well and will need the rig draining out first completely. Something else I've not had time for or enough coolant in clear so its now a very light shade of lavender lmao.

Fans are absolutely superb though.
