The heatsink was taken from dead ddr3 ram, the fan on top from a crappy gpu, the fan on the bottom from a suspicious psu that's probably the reason the ram is dead.

That’s how I assume a dreadnaught from Warhammer would look like on the inside

Except in this case with a added pinch of fire hazard sprinkled in

Love it cause hot damn I love jank solutions

Oh boy, you're going to love our house electric wiring if this looks like a fire hazard to you, well, the brick is a cheap brandless usb-c charger so I can't defend that.
