I always find "fun" ways to screw up computer builds, from cheap components to forgetting the CPU power connector. This time I did two. First, I bought an AIO liquid cooler that did not fit in my build. Second, I realized that I ditched my previous 850W modular power supply. The result is that I've had a partially built PC on a desk I need to remove for like half a month. Now it has morphed into this nightmare. The good news is that I did a dumb thing and replaced my old AIO with one that's too expensive so I could put a picture on it. As you do. Also this is the most painless setup I've had as far as getting everything to boot right beyond trying to get components and put them in the case.

I feel lucky to have snuck into cohost right before the twitter implosion and the 30k!! queue oh my god
