I love it lol. It’s like one of those old hot rodded cars you see made from an old sedan. Just a bland old family sedan, with a big engine sticking out the front

I got the PC free . It’s an i7 8700 with 16GB ~~DDR3~~ DDR4. It had no drives so nabbed a 1TB nvme off Amazon for £40 and a 1050ti of eBay for £45. Then a PCI riser cable. The rest is hack saw and 3D printer.

this looks absolutely awesome

All it’s missing is a jury-rigged PCIe power cable, but you chose a 1050 Ti which doesn’t need one!

One thing to be careful of, as it seems you’re British. Since you didn’t do a legal transfer of asset to a certified disposer, your work is still liable for the equipment under the [Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Regulations (2013).](https://www.hse.gov.uk/waste/waste-electrical.htm)
This is why we’re not allowed to let employees have old kit and it’s A Bad Thing.

Hah, that’s hilarious (and honestly put together very well)! Next, I’d see if the motherboard supports standard power supplies and get a higher wattage flex psu to throw on a faster and more power hungry gpu. That, or get an rtx a2000 since those don’t require external power.

This is genius. Love it.
Wonder if Dawid Does Tech Stuff will do something similar in a future video 🙂

Very unique and very cool

Wouldn’t really be using 3D printed parts. PLA softens around 50-60 and ABS is toxic

This how I imagine that GPU
DeanDeau
The name fits verywell, it does have that “Sidecar” feeling.
Trollyofficial
This is beautiful. Way to go op
AstroZombie1
That looks awesome man great job.
If I was you I’d take some measurements and model a slide in (or just on top) cover for the riser cut out to make it super clean.

It’s so beautiful. You basically got my old pc for 100$ and it looks 10 times cooler. Gg OP

This is awesome 🙂 good work

inb4 externally mounted GPU’s being the next aesthetic trend

Love the cyberpunk vibes!

Cool build but if you’re using a 8th gen chip then how are you using ddr3 ram?
sportmods_harrass_me
How do you possibly travel with this? Or do you just call it that but not actually travel? No hate or anything it’s just hard to picture actually packing this and having it survive.

Awesome. Definitely more interesting than that same fish tank case I see every day.
Hot-Hawk-4412
Wow my dude actually pretty nice, I’ve been messing around with old computers myself was thinking how to mount gpu externally, and you solved that for this type at least! And love the name.
GeneticSplatter
Lmao that looks great!

Loved the design, congrats!

If it is stupid but it works, it isn’t stupid.
an_achronist
Fuck it.
I love this and everything about it.
The specs are irrelevant, keep your RGB supernova-in-a-fish-tank cases, this is true master race material.
I’m not even being sarcastic; this is passion for computing, problem solving and (quite literally in this case) thinking outside the box.
Bravo OP
Chance_Highway_4271
Omg honostly this genius cause i had same build but i had to buy the bigger case to fit the gpu in,if i just had this genius idea i would’ve done it lol

Outside mounted gpu looks fuckingbadass like seeing a blower out the hood of a car.

Now that’s a (not so) discrete graphics card.
