Nothing very fancy, but I am happy with my new setup. Part new, part up-cycled from last system. Still have a little cable work to finish up with ties/mounts/Velcro.
Thermaltake P3 snow with tempered glass
Asus Crosshair VII Hero (non wifi)
Ryzen 2700x
16GB Gskill
Corsair H115i pro
EVGA 1080ti sc
Founders 1080ti
EVGA supernova 1000 G3
Samsung 860 EVO 1TB
WD 1TB spinning rust hidden behind the MB.
Vive wireless intel card hidden between the graphics cards
Samsung 40" 4k TV for monitor
Corsair K65 keyboard (love mechanical keyboards, got this one as a refurb on the cheap)
Logitec G502 mouse
barely not totally crappy creative stereo speakers
Image Dynamics 10" custom sub (That I do fairly decent speaker builds makes the lame ass creatives even worse)
Desk I just finished building also. 3/4 black iron pipe, and the top and tray are Acacia wood I finished with tung oil then a couple layers of varnish. The Acacia wood is crazy hard. Makes oak seem like pine. Used a few 1/2" and 1" black iron pipe on the monitor stand and for cable runs to PC.
Used a tilt type TV mount. The two black lag screws are in stud. The balance of a P3 case, and it's built in VESA mount is off to the left when viewed from the front. That puts the two screws in the stud almost in the exact hung weight center. I used two more 120lb shear rated anchors off on the right to keep any torsional stress under control. The mount itself is only 80lb rated ha.
Made the monitor mount from 1/2" black iron pipe and a french cleat style TV mount. Can see the two 1" black iron pipes I'm using to run cables up to the PC with. I thought about running them in the wall, but liked the retro industrial look of heavy pipe to match the desk. Power in one, data in other. I had to shave the power connector a tiny smidgen to get it through the pipe. The trimmed part faces the wall when plugged in. Invisible, and made no difference on a snug connection.==
Got the keyboard tray rails from amazon. The Acacia wood routed like hard plastic. So easy to shape.
Yes, the trunk on the far left with rope handles is the subwoofer. I bought the trunk, built an enclosure for the sub out of 1"MDF that fit inside the trunk. Gorilla glued and screwed it in. Used 1/4 hex head bolts to mount the sub so the bolt heads sit down in the gasket against the metal frame. Plate amp is from parts express with a few internal upgrades.
Next up items:
a custom water loop
build some decent desktop speakers
build a lamp out of black iron that mounts from behind the case and wraps out around the edge of the monitor
put the left hand shelf in lol. left it out in pics.
tone down the disco lights... meh.
