All your new computer parts arrive except for the casing?
You put it all in a paperboard box! I'll add some pics later. Because it looks great. And it runs great
. I couldn't wait, so I picked the biggest paperboard box that got delivered with it.

Well it does look funny, it's a whole lot less noisy then in a casing (with case fans). But it looks hell'a lot funny

lol You would put brand new PC parts in a cardboard box because you can't wait for the case? Have fun with your $1000+ fire lol.

Actually rather common, where do you think you troubleshoot, on a piece of cardboard, and many people have used cardboard to make a temp housing.

Well it's been my experience that heat + cardboard = fire, and since computers generate heat... Well you see where it's going.
