The PSU was bought by the Grandparent and HAS to be used in the final system. Luckily Minecraft and Terraria are the main titles to run on this. Photos when cleared.
This build has no log and no photos because the owner did not give permission. It is completed and runs like a champ, (as it ought to) FUTUREPROOF on a stick.

The PSU was bought by the Grandparent and HAS to be used in the final system. Luckily Minecraft and Terraria are the main titles to run on this. Photos when cleared.
This build has no log and no photos because the owner did not give permission. It is completed and runs like a champ, (as it ought to) FUTUREPROOF on a stick.
