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.

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. -M

Ahh you see, I smelled a story behind it, nice 😉

Very nice and clean setup!.! Just one thing I've noticed though is the air in the line for your liquid cooling. Right on the GPU block you can see a "dimple" of air inside it. Rotate that bad boy some and get that nasty air outta there! I can say i tried on my rig, but it's nearly impossible without three strong arse mofos giving a hand.

It does not have RGB, but that is definitely a possibility for a future mod... 😉

After a couple weeks all the air bubbles were gone! They worked themselves out on their own! Not sure I could rotate this beast if I even wanted to... 🙂 -M

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

It stands for rug rats. Kids are expensive and prohibit toys like these. Can't put a kid in a 2 seater.

holy... wow. i really like the attention to detail and the clean build. over the top, of course, as is the Corvette, but i love it. i've never attempted a build on this scale (thematically) although in the past building 'puters was almost this expensive for a real top end Intel HEDT (tho' realistically you could build one around 5k). but as far as X399 goes this is the best threadripper build i've seen.
