That's a neat bit of cable management. Is that a Phanteks case?

I went for a NZXT Phantom a few years back.

Full size but loads room for upgrading etc.

Great case.

My system only has one 200mm fan at the front that spins at 800rpm and does a pretty good job at keeping the whole case cool with minimal noise. At full tilt the graphics card is the noisiest item.

I'm not sure a watercooled unit would fit unless I put the radiator where the current case fan is and hope/assume it gives enough airflow to keep the Nano supplied with cool air.

My current thinking is to get a Noctua NH-D9L, which doesn't take up much more space than the stock cooler but is a lot quieter.

Took me like 3 hours to get the whole case nice and neat!
Its the Cooler Master Storm Stryker, big ass case !

Well if we're showing off neat PC builds, oh and water CPU coolers:

JustChris · 11-24-2015, 12:47 PM

Still on PornHub here. Only got 7 categories to go for the full set set. Not looking forward to these last specialities.

Very nice, good that you managed to get the EBII stuff in it as well

Will335d · 11-24-2015, 12:49 PM

level 26 about 27 hours in, loads of mods on guns and done a little bit on the settlements.
Awesome game cant wait for Just Cause 3

mgarvey · 11-24-2015, 12:52 PM

Okay, so we have our fair share of PC nuts on here then!

Bit cheaper than modding the 3-series I suppose...just.

Oh yes! Just a shame the graphics card was only available in Melbourne Red though!

All right I suppose. It plays Fallout 4 and Forza 6 so what more do you need?

I decided to take advantage of 'Black Friday' at Game this afternoon, shops generally quiet as I think everyone was online crashing John Lewis, Game and a few others thinking the town would be crowded. Purchased a Xbox one, with Fallout 4 and Gears of War for £279 but with all the bits, controllers, Forza 6 etc just a shade under £360.

Use a home based 27-inch iMac so no gory pictures of PC innards for enthusiasts.

That is good! Ebay has a black friday deal for xbox one console with a couple of arcade games for £224 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Xbox-One-C...9bcc4d8a85abab which is also good.

Rebuilt some houses in Sanctuary too.

I like setting up kill zones within settlements.

Then luring in raiders etc from nearby, having the auto guns chop them up

Some settlements really lend themselves as gun forts.

roshambo · 11-28-2015, 02:24 AM

Samctuary's yet to be attacked. Had a hit on the hills when it was a bit weak. I have like 7 settlements i can build at now and not enough stuff to scrap! Anyone else find adhesives a bloody hard material to come by? I've been using a lot for gun upgrades lol

Harlequin · 11-28-2015, 03:45 AM

I'm loving Fallout 4. Never played the previous ones as I've always been more into Multiplayer but my mates convinced me to give it a go...

I don't do "Stick Aim" so I playing on this:

(Sorry for vertical iPhone vid....)

i7/32GB/980GTX/SSD on 2x27" Screens... Just made the above vid coz I upgraded my Video Card specifically for this game and then needed a new PSU and Case to run/fit it...

This was from a couple of days ago:

Great looking rig.

That large mortar on the roof must be a spoiler somewhere I assume.

I would actually create some entry points that the ai will channel attacks, lined with machine guns, lasers, searchlights etc.

Give it some place to bleed against.

Also a bit of depth and cross fire from various weapons works wonders.

Nice settlement though.

Very nice, i'm not an LED man, but I do love Corsair stuff. If they made mobos and graphics cards i'd have a 100% Corsair PC!

teaston · 11-28-2015, 04:39 AM

So at what point in the game do you need a base like that, and why?

I did the minimum base upgrades required in the quest and that's it so far!
