What’s the point of the GTX 760?

Does your CPU not have iGPU?

Is your case custom fab? Looks like an ATX board? I would just watch your clearance of the fan sticking off the HBA, other then that, looks solid.

The CPU does not have a integrated GPU. I can use it for transcode in Jellyfin.

I have all 1010c (1" 80/20) styled material to build the case. It is a monster. It is 5U high, 28" inches deep, 17.5" wide and will fit in my rack with no problem.

It will be water cooled as well. Just waiting for time to complete making all the custom fasteners.

I will be adding a keep up with the build on a new blog and my Youtube channel, if I ever get time to record anything. Always too busy.
