I have just started to cobble together another rig, namely a x58 board that was lying around and i7 920, a bunch of spare radiators and case a 295GTX etc etc infact most parts required to make a pc All the parts are mostly spare due to upgrades in in the gaming rig . I decided I required a few additional items as the rig is water cooled, missing parts included small items such as compression fittings and LED’s & LED Strip light (Bulldog .. LED’s ,…whooooshiny lights lol) cables, plastic, wrap Vinyl and paint some different 120 fans, neoprene gasket, wet & dry paper for the case prep and other items I can’t remember just now. The small parts bill has staggered me when totted up, an additional £250 If you cost up all your PC you are currently using .. how much extra has it cost you to be different?
I'm hesitating to total up the cost. I spent well over £150 at MDPC-X just for sleeving, heatshrink, connectors etc. The crimping tool was about £30 alone although well worth every penny. Even though I had some great Gentle Typhoons I still replaced them as they didn't fit in with the overall look and that was close to £150. I still need to get a decent graphics card and other bit's and pieces so it's going to be a long time before I'm close to finishing.
Some cathodes, a can of black paint, and if you count the fans I've bought in an attempt to be quiet.... ~$150, max. I'm not that bad.
Different - Adjective not the same as something or somebody else separate or distinct from another or others contrary to norms or expectations Oi I didnt drop it ..I failed to catch it as it fell... lol
You may be funny in the mornings dear but not in the afternoons Since most are not "off the shelf" everything about them could be considered different
No, I bought a towel rail, the blue tablets are now redundant .. How much was your "additional" items for your case anyhow ...you totted them up?
I bet a gazillion ponds you can't do it Dave!!!! I would hazard a guess and say that all the W/C gear plus what I spent modding my case comes to around £500. I need to go and curl up behind the sofa now and have a little cry. I'm suddenly feeling quite emotional.....
