Upgrades. System unit

For someone, a computer is a means of earning, for someone - entertainment, and for someone - a hobby. Quite often the latter turn their high-tech friends into masterpieces of art. Often, the object of the experiments is the system unit. Why him? Everything is simple, it has many degrees of freedom - space and the possibility of connecting power from it. The first improvements were not directed at beauty. People began to change the standard solutions for an individual approach because of the prices of components. Initially, some users themselves began to think about the bundle. This became possible already thanks to the appearance of the used parts market. Now everyone could try himself as a designer.

But on this no one was going to stop. Possible phenomenon was the "overclocking" of the PC, i.e. Unauthorized increase of some parameters of elements that were untouchable before. It was thanks to overclocking that users began to think about cooling. And if already started to appear homemade cooling (air, liquid), then why not make the case of the system unit with their own hands? As already mentioned, all cases had standard divisions and construction. Over time, some companies began to understand that the issue of upgrades is a gold mine, and they began to produce individual cases. But still nothing could compare with the manual work of an experienced "ironman."

Sometimes for a basis from which the system unit was made, completely unreal items were taken. The stories are known for absolutely insane ideas for creating a system unit and PC in general. By the way, such creativity has pushed to the appearance of slot machines in our cafe. Such a slot machine was a symbiosis of two systems - a PC and a home theater. The craftsmen created quite interesting pedestals from iron, wood, plastic and other materials, in which the CRT monitor was carefully installed (for information display), the system unit (like the main control brain), the stereo system (sound reproduction) and a couple of buttons - selection and navigation on List of songs.

But back to the PC. If you disassemble a standard purchased computer, you will see the following items: a large motherboard, a smaller video card, RAM slots, a drive, a power supply, a hard drive and a processor. Immediately you can pay attention to the availability of free space and low cooling organization, which included a power supply (two coolers), a processor and a video card. Some models of system units had fewer coolers, but the possibility of manual adjustment of the number of revolutions.

Naturally, for gamers such capacities were not enough. It was then that the system unit was especially appreciated by its own hands. It was believed that if you could make it yourself, then you not only understood the structure of the PC, but he was a designer and an electrician at the same time. But, in addition to reinstalling the cooling, users began to decorate their system blocks with interesting illumination. Everyone, probably, at least once saw luminous coolers, blinking outlines of the sistemnik or interesting illumination on the DVD-drive. Now this became not a necessity in the name of capacities, but a desire for self-expression. Acknowledgment to this set of pictures and video material of similar self-made miracles of technics.

Now model systemists are objects of self-expression. In principle, everyone can create their own design of the system unit. To do this, first buy a used system unit, disassemble it to the cog and understand all the fasteners. After that it is recommended to make a paper layout. This will give some understanding of space. Having decided on the material, make all the elements of the new design system. Do not forget to take into account the influence of temperature, the movement of air masses and vibration. By assembling your model of the new hull and making sure it works, you can start painting and finishing the hull.

If you want to express yourself in this way, then this is a good option. Friends and colleagues will appreciate this. You will get an author's masterpiece. At the same time, you can adjust the size and subject of the sistemnik to your apartment design.
