Hmm.... not sure if RGRTS is "ragrets", "regerts", or "regrets".

A bit tasteless, just like the car (for me), but has been done very well though so I can definitely appreciate that, a proper job! We can't all love the same style!

Please get an Aston Martin DBS and do it over. No leds or flashy lights to ruin it and you've got me as a buyer of your next build !!

Well done.

I like the looks, nice build. Only that I always cringe when I see multiple colors in a single rig's lighting, that subjective, but it's a clean and innovative build.

I'm just surprised, nobody talking about @managerman and what he put up over his desk?
Pictures of spacewalking man (Armstrong? Somebody related to you even?), different Airforce / NASA insignia, and most of all a Star Trek picture?
We not talking about a guy who likes space exploring and STAR TREK?

Big up my friend.

The multiple colors was before I figured out the whole MSI mystic light stuff...since then, I have been running a solid white color with a tinge of purple. Really like it! I will take some new pictures.

Here is the story on the space photos:

The two pictures of Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong were actual prints made from the negatives from the camera they used on the moon. My dad worked for Eastman Kodak for 35 years and he obtained these prints from someone he knew at work..I have had these photos ever since I can remember...They were on the wall in my bedroom when I was a little kid in the early 70's. The larger photo surrounded by the Apollo mission patches was a signed photo I received from Buzz Aldrin when I met him about 20 years ago.

Thanks for asking.

Fantastic job! As a fan of both AMD and 'Vettes, two thumbs up.

@managerman - I had some questions:

What is the brand of that white chair? I saw a similar one with a logo like that and have no idea what the brand is...

16mm Carbon tubes? I have looked for these before, ironically for my own X399 MEG Creation build, the only ones I could find were extremely thin walled. I know carbon fiber is extremely tough but had reservations about using something so thin (and presumably brittle?). Does anyone know if there is thicker carbon tubing in 16mm or even carbon tubing made for watercooling specifically?

That is a Maingear Gaming chair....I love it!

Here is some more info on it..

I bought it here...

The tubes I bought were these..no issues at all..

Thanks...that Corvette is one of the best hobbies I have ever had..I will probably wait for the Z06 version of the mid engine.

While build is very clean and is likely made exactly as @managerman wanted it, It is too open and too space consuming for my taste.

Anyway, it is a good job done with a lot of effort invested. I hope it will serve well and long time.
