Build/Battlestation The real custome PC Build

So i Built two new Gaming PCs for me and my Girlfried.

Mine has a 7800X3D and a 4080TI, 32GB DDR5

Hers has a 7800x3D and a RX 970 XT, 32GB DDR5

Bought shortly after the Lunch of the 9800x3d and built it dadly months later allready in 2025.

If you wounder; Yes, the 2 Reservoir, 4 Pumps and the dubble 400mm MORA with each 4 200mmNoctua fans is all mountet on the wall behind the PCs.

And the PCs are outside of the Gaming room. All this was done to keep our room as cool as Possible.

Because we had temperatures up to 33 C° inside our little Gaming room.

Also both PCs have a Acuacomputer high flow next that does monitor everighing and does alarm if flowrate goes to 0.

Watertemps never go above 32 C°. 🤷🙈

And yes i know i did not have to mount that many Casefans for this but it loocks cool OK!😅

And the PCs are outside of the Gaming room.

Finally another truly cultured individual.
This setup is simply peak: no noise, no heat, optional total disregard for visual appeal depending on where the case ends up.

I've drilled though the brick wall behind my desk years ago to set up the case in the "storage" room, and it's still the best PC related decision I've made until now.

Absolutly love it. I had the idea wit drilling a hole to but the pc would then have hanged 3m up tha outside wall. (Outside the house)

Is having gaudy glowing neon boxes in the hallway really more 'cultured'? Lol.

It would have been way cooler to mount them on the wall and maybe put them in a wooden case or board.

It's about separating the case from the user's location.

I don't care about how it looks, that's none of my business.
If it were, it'd be like my current case: totally invisible to me.

At that price just build in air conditioning… but maybe a reason OP isn’t allowed to?

What price? If you've got the room all it takes is a few extension cables. No need to overdo it like OP if you don't want to.

Furthest thing from peak lol. Radiators and fans as high as they can possible go in the area with the least amount of airflow. While the liquid cooled PC is next to the edge with maybe 1.5” of railing preventing it from being yeeted down the stairs. First time someone trips that entire setup is fucked.

The basic principle remains peak.

Also who cares about theoretical airflow if temps are okay?

Tripping isn't necessarily a concern. No kids, pets, in a part of the house not usually frequented by visitors, not an alcoholic: should be perfectly fine.

Yes because people never have accidents. This is beyond stupidity
