Just got done upgrading my workstation tonight! I got the chance to grab one of these chassis for dirt cheap so I jumped at the opportunity! I'm normally not a huge chassis kind of guy but now that I have a mini-itx gaming box I figured, why not go full retard on my workstation! XD
I loved my old chassis (lian li pc65b) but 80mm fans and bad airflow kept things running hotter than i liked. Ill probably go back and modify that chassis again some day but for now I wanted to try modding something new! The plans for this system include a plastidipped midnight blue pearl exterior and I may attempt to mod a complete pentium 3 win98 system onto the back side for legacy gaming nostalgia as their appears to be enough room. Nice to have a modding project again!
Enjoy as always!

it is banned in the U.K. the government said "We are the only ones allowed to spy on our people!" use of a multiple screens makes graphic design or artwork actually easier since you can drag and drop between screens or do multitasking artwork. So informing me that Win 10 doesn't allow multi-screen capability tells me another reason i don't like win 10. also it makes a game cool because you have a wider field of view.
i was going from off of what i assumed draggony implied, concerning multiple screens.
the spyware feature of win 10 is real however.
if you have any software that does not have a recent 2016 license windows will prevent you from running your computer. my experience thus far is with whatever virus Microsoft put out forcing me to upgrade to win 10. i am happy with win 8. but ms10 demanded i upgrade.
i refused. then they put a 'necessary file' for win 8 that disabled my computer completely through automatic update. I had to have my computer fixed by my software company for antivirus costing me 108 dollars. the 'upgrade' reset my computer to factory settings and deleted all of my programs. I bought a new wacom tablet with it came bundled software. i cannot re download the bundled software i bought that specific tablet for. i have to pay for a new download of the software that came in my wacon tablet box. my codes for the download do not work again. my photoshop was disabled and key dll's were deleted. i had to get another copy which i luckily had on a flashdrive. Microsoft deleted my games so i had to prove i bought them with steam/ this took some time since i had to remember the passwords i used since Microsoft deleted all my passwords and wiped all my serial numbers for my antivirus and other programs off my desktop.
so don't tell how great you fucking think mswin 10 is! it screwed up my computer so that i was another year behind getting commissions done! since most of my newer drawings were all done on the corel program. So i have to start all over again., another year wasted!

I have the GTX970 myself to. it's the EVGA version, not the factory default. and it's actually served just fine. been playing battlefield 1 and it's got this cool system that locks the graphical specs to just below the graphical memory limit that it can detect on your graphics card. while the Geforce experience app suggests higher graphical specs for the game to be set at, I prefer letting the game set it'self since it can actually detect how much G-ram my card has.
Definitely a great gpu and more than enough to handle new titles at very solid fps. Thanks for the advice though I appreciate it! I agree the 1070 is deffinitely worth the extra cash especially for anyone considering getting into 2k+/ 4k or vr. 970 might be a good option if purchased on a deeeep discount but it wojld have to come in below the 1060 price and with some of the Pascal architecture features/ improvements I'd likely take 1060 over 970 at the lower price points.
