Project Shorebreak

Build Description

I'm an engineer and YouTube creator (channel : Visual Thinker). I built this PC to help edit my videos in 4k, and to improve my animation rendering (blender). I'm really happy with how it turned out, its super easy to clean the dust filters and it runs very cool. It's extremely quiet, even under full load, thanks to the large external radiator. I don't have to drain the loop in order to access the board and gpu, There is enough clearance between the disto and the back for me to reach in from the top and bottom.

Favorite Feature

My favorite feature is the custom distro. It's massive and doubles as the front panel for the case.
