this might give binky a run for its money 
It has some good spec including an intel optane nvme drive 
and UPS board for some no mains running thats stage 2 batteries in base to look like the old phase change unit to complete the look of the old 2004 rig 
but does it have a good bracket….. 
At the moment Highly likely to fall apart at the slightest hint of a looking at but progressing slowly and getting stronger 
by the month, only really getting on average a day a month to work on it. As for the PI i did get steam running and an old version of counterstrike runnning on it
Actually its safe to say its has alot in common with spacex experimental space rocket at the moment as quite often suffers a ‘RUD’ Rapid unscheduled Disassembly
Perfectly normal i heard, happens to the best of us; so am told
Thats the LCD screen glued in and running successfully though i am somewhat puzzled how its working as i have the 3.3v power lead disconnected 
Cooler Master top logo inplace:grin:
This is a very much a do it myself project but the offer is not without appreciation 
. It’s not ment to be perfect though, heck the old phase change rig was never perfect but I always had the honor and knowing that i built it all by myself for which it will be the same with my PI5 case
It is a work in progress going through an “Iteration” process as I work things out then realise nah thats not going to work as i thought
Pleased so far though, still awaiting some bits to progress next stages. Power button is made just not fitted yet so ignore that . Bit way off on the making of the replication of the phase change base bit that on this will hold batteries to power the unit instead.
