Old Computer I
built t myself about (2016) Now a
Backup |
|
Case |
Fractal
Design Case is the more expensive type and is built to be as silent as
possible. Is lined with sound proofing material and is vented in such
a way as to keep fan noise to a minimum. The computer at the moment
sits beside the organ on the floor and I cannot hear any sound coming
from it. |
|
Motherboard |
Gigabyte Z170-D3H. I choose this because at the time I was using 3
Creamware soundcards that require the old PCI slots. This series were
the first to offer the M.2 socket for NVM Express SSD drives |
