WorkMi: Fractal Design Define R6 + AMD TR1950x
Posted: Mon Aug 06, 2018 10:19 am
Well been working on this build for some time, from bad mobo, memory compatibilty among other things, with working trips in between took a long time to finish. The build is more oriented to be a workstation, a dedicated capture/streaming/rendering pc. Still its not fully finished GPU needs to be updated as for now has a placeholder and to get 2 more hdd caddy to be able to mount the Raid10 with the raid card. This time was a little harder to build than with the R4 and R5, most of the build was easy, what makes it more difficult is the power supply shroud, its key to know the cables and placed them before on the modular psu, as its hard to plug them later on, even PSU is not fully settled on the mount so putting to much force worries me, so i connected all and pull them when passing through the PSU from the back, but takes a long time with sata cables and all the other power cables tangling along the fans and walls, that said the rest of the case is very nice, a very nice upgrade over the R4 that was currently using, specially the cablemangement.
