■ NOTES:
■ I was using my main PC for everything for well over a year, and it was definitely bulging at the seams with the amount of stuff I was always running.  in March 2026, I completed my dono crowdfund to build a second, more up to date PC rig.

■ Built on a freezing cold February in 2026, this build went together so quickly. I use it to run my "always on" live stream channels, as well as for ShowBuddy/DMXIS and anything else I need it for.

■ It also serves as a backup for streaming, recording should the 2022 build fail or need repair.

■ Check the crowdfund page for more info on who to thank for helping me build this, and more photos.

■ Built on a hot summer June evening in 2022, this PC was intended to replace my ailing old 1st gen i7 PC.

■ I'd been using my old PC for so many years, jumping from a 1st gen to 10th gen has blown me away.

■ In March 2026, I gave this a refresh, de-dust, and upgraded several case componenets that had broken. I'm also looking to get a new case for this and build my 3rd PC inside this old case!

■ NOTES:
■ This PC was built back in 2012 to cope with the session work I was gettting.
■ A 1st Gen i7 with 24GB DDR3, the motherboard, is a competition overclocking mobo, and it had so much grunt, I used to live stream from this PC with 6/7 cameras right up until 2022!

■ Average OBS CPU use was 25/35% at full load.
■  Streamed using this PC from Feb 2021 until 2022. Squeezed every last drop of performance out of it. Was used all through my affiliate front page tenures on Twitch in 2022.

■ Audio Laptop (Tracks): 2000-2026
■ Specs:
■ Acer i5 8GB
■ Windows 10 64-bit Home

■ NOTES:
■ Ran Show Buddy/DMXIS for lighting, tracks and camera control for OBS.
■ Ran so slow after windows decided to update it from 8.1 to 10.  Now replaced by the 2nd PC build.
■ It's convenient, but I'm not a fan of laptops, I much prefer desktop PC's.
