    Wait, your PSU had the fan opening pointed up, and now the fan opening is resting against the bottom of the case?

    If a home server isnt held together with duct tape its not actually running. I just had to lay one of mine to rest yesterday and replace it with a much much smaller m70q. Sad day but Minecraft is back up and so is Terraria. I now have a threadripper that instead of encoding video is now boxed up like master chief at the end of Halo 3.

    u went from stinky cable management to unstinky cable management 😊

    be sure to tell your server “thank you” and that they’re doing a good job every now and then!
