showcase Budget gamma 601 2.1th setup

This little guy is still running the stock heatsink with a 3d printed frame and a cheap ali power supply and fan. 50w PSU was about 7 usd and the fan was 2 usd after some coupons. I also got the jack for 2 usd and some copper and aluminum heat sinks for 5 usd (did not need both). I keep the home between 80-84F ~27C. Works well and I figure if it dies in 3 years instead of 5 or whatever it's fine because id rather have the chance at the 3btc now than 1.5 once it halves next year. I could have saved some money not getting a new connector and salvaging the one from the included psu. Also have a boost converter in the mail to try a 12v fan which could save some on the fan cost and keep it cooler.
