VR Machine

Build Description
I needed a Computer with powerful GPU for PC VR. The first picture shows the outside, right after I built it. The second picture shows the inside, after I switched out the power cables for the GPU to make it cleaner. It's a pretty normal built, I guess. The graphics card is huge and heavy. I made sure that I had the bracket as I installed the card. So, it is supported since day one.
Since I built my last PC 15 years ago, I invested quite some time to research the components and plan this built in every detail. The built was easy.

Favorite Feature
Cool (in terms of design and cooling), powerful and relatively future-proof built at a reasonable price. I really love that Lian Li Lancool 216 case. It provides a lot of space and is versatile, while providing great airflow.
