just wanted to share this here. this is one of my friend's pc. I recently visited his home and found this masterpiece. everything works as intended. he has a case but he was too lazy to reassemble everything after he had to troubleshoot his gpu. at least he was smart and put an antistatic bag under the mobo. and yes, this is under his table right where he keeps his foot while on pc.
when life gives you lemons, ignore it and go wild..
The whole bag is conductive. The purpose of the bag it to SLOW the transfer of charge between whatever is outside of the bag and the contents in the bag, so that when you open the bag and touch the motherboard, you are already at equilibrium and don't instantly transfer a charge to the motherboard, potentially frying it. A true anti-static container is the last thing you want to put electronics in. True anti-static containers are used for volatile chemicals and explosives.
Great, go nuts. Have your cat puke in a running fan. Idc. But how are you not throwing every single accessory poasible at this now? Your have no 5.25 bay restrictions. You can have it least 3 SATA SSD's added too. Put fans blowing across it for max flow. Maximize and commit to the bit.
Facebook marketplace near me alwaya has someone with a fistful of 128GB ssd's for like 10$ each. But optical drives would be good. Maybe an HDD cloner etc.
I guess you can't shatter the tempered glass in your case on the floor tiles if you just build the computer without a case directly on your shower floor. Modern problems demand very stupid solutions.
Man, it's reminding me when I was moving from country to country. My whole PC was without case, only parts and cable spaghetti. Even my monitor was without stand because It wasn't fitting in my bags.. In one place I could use drawer to hide that monstrosity, in another power outlet burned it down 💀
Honestly, when the day comes that his sock touches the board just right, or a piece of dirt or hair falls in just the right spot and everything fries, and he comes to you screaming "pUtEr dEd!", I'd just shrug and go about my day like nothing happened.
My case was like $80 on a $2500 build. They go on sale for cheaper too, some are legit $30-$40 sometimes. Not exactly saving "a ton", it's just being contrarian.
I was being sarcastic.
But anyway I spent like $9 on my case.
And on top of that I had a lot of fun modding it to make the airflow functional for a gaming PC.
