For those uninitiated, the Ship of Theseus is a philosophical question (stick with me, I promise!) discussed by the likes of Plato- "if you were to have a ship, or any other object, and replace every single component which it's made of, is that ship still the same ship?" I haven't built a new computer since 2012. Yet this is a build log for a machine which currently has a Ryzen 5000 CPU and a 3080. I'd like to use this space to advocate for one of my favorite parts of the DIY PC market - upgradability and expandability. Almost decade ago, I built a rig with a 3570k and the cheapest Z77 board on the shelf at Micro Center. Little did I know, after 3 GPU upgrades (iGPU to 750ti, to RX 470, to the 3080), an accumulation of storage both mechanical and solid state, RAM upgrades (8GB to 16GB DDR3, then 16GB of DDR4), a new motherboard and 2 CPU upgrades (3750k, to r5 1600, to r5 5600), as well as the addition of RGB Strips and Fans - I'd still be using the same case and power supply I bought way back when Windows 7 was still the latest and greatest. As technology evolved and my budget grew, I was able to "level up" my rig - one piece at a time. My machine has grown with me, been there through thick and thin. I'm fortunate enough to be in a position where I could afford to replace my case, it would certainly help with temperatures to do so, but this cheapo case has been through battle and back with me. I'm not sure I could really call it "my computer" if it wasn't in a stormtrooper-esque enclosure of questionable integrity. The fact it's a bit of a "sleeper" (ironic as it may be to use the term on an RGB-clad system) is endearing to me. Its dated, arguably cheap-looking exterior betrays the impressive compute power which lies within. Compared to buying an integrated system with a limited upgrade potential, a DIY PC can be stretched over time so far it barely resembles it's original creation, endowed with new capabilities unimaginable when you first built it.$2,425.94 -

In the past I ran most of my game servers and other automation (video rendering and InDesign builds) on very old desktops and laptops. I built this workstation to combine all of my hosting needs into one machine that I could easily manage remotely. The machine runs Proxmox, and can be managed remotely over the web interface, through SSH, or through the CPU's AMT. It's also been nice when I need another clean OS install, or to test out new software, without messing up any of my physical systems that I use daily. This was a fun build to do, especially while stuck at home. The Tesla M40 is a server-class Nvidia GPU from the Maxwell generation of cards. Performance-wise it's about equivalent to a 980Ti or 1070 desktop card. Although it has no display out, it can be used for graphical acceleration tasks (like AI training, or rendering Premiere Pro projects). The best part is that these go for much cheaper than desktop cards. Since I edit/animate on my personal laptop and only render on the server, this works fine for me. However, you can pair the M40 with an integrated GPU, and have the graphics rendered on the Tesla card but display actually handled by the iGPU. Check out https://www.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/comments/m6evvp/gaming_on_a_tesla_m40_gtx_titan_x_performance_for/ for more details on how to use the M40 as a rendering GPU paired with a display GPU. Note that this was put together with used parts, and the part prices reflect the prices I paid when I obtained those components. Some of these have gotten cheaper while others have become much more expensive. Notably cheap DDR3 Registered RAM has increased in price significantly$619.99 -
