because if you configure nlite to run unattended you would't need a ps2 keyboard
 
I think a little thanks are in order...

Thanks to everyone for working hard for and donating towards another great Kreij tribute, thanks @jboydgolfer for the great work with the donation rig, thanks to @Norton for organizing everything and for the constant updates, and a HUGE THANKS to @sneekypeet for the keyboard! :respect: :respect:

So much win here, hard to handle

It wouldnt have resolved the issue with this pc tho, since it was unable to access the internet ninite wouldnt have helped.sadly , it was just a matter of me never installing this chipset b4, and the winner requesting that i install win7..nothing could have helped , short of the ps2 kb, and the driver disc, but i didnt get the driver disc with this mobo.

Once i told the winner i wasnt able to provide win7 with this chipset, he approved win10, and it went smooth as ice.

Very awesome, well done! It really looks good! :toast:

I love the color scheme and everything, looks like a beast rig :D

it should serve the End user VERY well.
From what I've been told, Coding & Gaming will be the two most prominent uses that this PC will be engaging in. IMO , it should serve quite nicely to that end.
For those who are interested in numbers...
The Distilled Water in the loop rested @ right around 41C ,with 100% sustained usage on Both the GPU, and CPU, for roughly 1.5 Hours.
CPU was 38C @ 100%
GPU was 41'ish C @ 100%

The front Separated segment of the case that houses the HDD's, and other storage components, there is a convenient Fan placed right @ the bottom, JUST under the lowest most HDD cage...IT surprisingly pushes a good deal of cool air up. which is then Grabbed by the Triple 120mm/RAD that is mounted on the inside of the main bay( the HDD front section, and the Main "motherboard" section ARE separate, but it isnt a solid wall, its just cut outs, and air filters, between the main bay and front Storage bay). For those who might have been curious.
Air flow is great in this puppy, certainly COULD be much better with the proper amount of time, and love put into it, especially if one were to purchase items specifically meant to fit this build, a REAL beast could be born ;)
thanks for ALL fo Your donations, and patience while i put it together, I am currently awaiting the shipping lacels to send it out to the Winner :toast:

That it does! :)

Almost spent the extra $$$ to get the red led MSI dragon top upgrade for that waterblock but figured it would be a bit of a waste w/o a side panel window on the case :ohwell:

Great job on the build @jboydgolfer !!! :peace:

yeah, the Glass door edition of this case runs another hundred or so iirc, and it also comes with an LED screen that mounts Right in front of the PSU(i THINK, or is optional) from Your perspective when Viewing the image above, it shows System readouts like Ambient temp, MoBo temp, CPU, GPU, etc...iirc its a Really nice touch, and creative by Antec too, since traditionally LeD readouts like that are normally in the front of the case.

here is the digi panel readout screen, took me a while to find it.

I know some who have forgot about ninite. I love it. Saved the exe and have been using it a lot.
 
SkyLake only plays well with 10, learned that the hard way :rockout:
 
i actually installed 10 on one of my PC's, and whenever the damned thing wakes up from sleep, it shows the desktop, and just hangs for like 10-20 seconds. I can see everything, but i cant click anything, or open anything, Really annoying.

Also....tell me that this isn't one of the Most satisfying videos You've ever watched....so often, we never take the time to watch these things work.

just a friendly reminder to @Random Murderer i haven't forgotten Your PC... We're just awaiting the Shipping labels ;) As im certain Your likely aware they are a Tad expensive(The PC alone is over 75LBs O_O), and are NO small matter aquiring, I, and all other certainly Owe a HUGE chunk of gratitude to the Kind person covering ALL shipping expenses, as it is Easy to forget that the shipping, although not a tangible item, is a VERY large part of this whole process, and without the generosity of @yotano211 Id have a VERY long drive ahead of Me ;)

Oh, I hadn't thought you forgot. These things take time, I'm just grateful to you and @Norton and the rest of the community for keeping this thread going. I can't think of a better way TPU could honor Kreij's memory.

Hey guys, my win is so full of win!!! My wife LOVES her new keyboard, she really does. Some of her family is over and they were blown away by it too, must be the LEDs :laugh: (for comparison, nobody cares about my Das keyboard) :roll:

Thanks again everyone and @sneekypeet :toast:

I'm sorry lads (and I feel real selfish saying this) but this time I likely won't be able to participate in the giveaway. I still have virtually no use for either the Dolch or Miami keycaps but exams have got me completely and utterly swamped. I'm afraid that not an offer from someone else to temporarily take them off my hands will do. Law school sucks. Perhaps next time, perhaps in September when I return to Bristol.

On the bright side, thanks to y'all I know that there is love for MX and MX-mount switches on TPU! As there seems to be no end to my clickity-clack addiction, I look forward to being able to share some clack in the near future.
