still a bit of a birds nest,, but nowhere near as bad as it was before..

That price! Looks much smaller than my P2 though, problem is when you have such a big PSU you feel the need to put load on it, which means more expensive hardware! Hopefully she'll last you for 10 years.

With current pricing the GTX 1080ti might be the better call, something to keep in mind if you decide to upgrade. Quick question is that two motherboards/cpu/ram into one case? If so how are you powering them off of one PSU?

why do you have 2 systems in one case? is it just to save having 2 computer towers or serves a different sort of purpose?

the psu is nice, didnt think they made units only cases?

Seasonic actually makes them. Phanteks have just joined the trend of other manufacturers and entered the PSU market and some of their units are priced very aggressively compared to other brands.
