now running the coolest operating system on the coolest hardware - I've got no idea what I'm doing 😅

more importantly - which stickers should I get? thinking maybe a custom "oem sticker" (is there a proper word for them?) and have any of you done any crazy mods to your eee pc (or other laptops) that you'd care to share? I hollowed the dead battery case so could fit something fun there maybe.

Thinking of adding some LED strips to the Antec LanBoy Air case I was just posting about.

I'd love a soft orange glow inside — something to match the case (industrial feel) and perhaps even react to CPU or system activity.

Has anyone done this on a headless setup before?

• USB-powered?
• Molex/SATA LED strips?
• Zigbee/HA integration?

Would love your ideas — trying to keep it functional and cool, but not too RGBy 😂

Specs for now:

• Gigabyte Z390 UD
• Intel Pentium Gold G5420
• 16GB DDR4
• 447GB NVMe

Still figuring out how to mount extra 3.5" drives up front (AirMount system long gone) — might reuse 5.25" brackets or print custom cages, but we'll see. Any advice welcome really!

Someone dared to put a Yate Loon fan in my power supply, seriously? 😂 Swapped it out for a trusty Noctua NF-A12x25 and added a thermal sensor to control it with! 💪 Got the last watercooling parts on Monday and finished the build yesterday. Now my machine is inaudible even under load! 🤫 Will take pics later! #PCModding

Just came across these pictures of a wood PC I made in 2018. It was just like an i5 2400, but I think it was a cute one! #pcmodding

I've been hoping to see these toroidal propellers on PC fans! I can't wait to try this for myself.
