    I am only done with a part of the inside ,(But what is done Seems to look ok)

    Hey everyone,

    Here is a short Video i made onn how i play /sit in front of the desk,
    since this is actually something people are interessted in knowing,hopefully this explains/if not feel free to ask.

    No it is not Uncompfortable,although my legs look a bit crushed on the video,
    usually my chair isn't that high and my arms rest on the desk(wich was not realy an option while recording)

    Second reason for making this video,
    To try out my skills with Adobe premiere pro,
    realy like the programm,But still lots to learn,(please don't judge)

    Enjoy the Video ,any tips on editing are very much apprichiated :)

    Well,after trying to record the video wich i was preparing (all except the battery) wich kinda failed,but i might be able to scrap the unboxing together.(let's hope so)

    I finally got the motherboard all up and running on the "testbench".
    Everything looked good (since i didn't install a radiator in the loop the test wasn´t going over night.
    but if there would have been a mature leak it would have been NOW.
    But i will leak test for at least 12 our´s once all is in the Desk.

    Here are some Pictures (By the Way this stuff looks so much better in person than on Photos,realy great quality)
