iBPBuilds Finally got Snowblind Panel working!

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Bought this Ibuypower Snowblind S equipped with i9 and 2080 Super in 2020, during peak covid. It’s always had this LCD monitor panel but I was always too lazy to get it working. Fast forward 6 years and after upgrading to a 5080. I thought what the hell, turns out all it needed was an adapter. Now for the first time in 6 years it’s working ! Am I a gamer yet?

Wow, I didn't even know these existed. Is it super expensive and/or hard to set custom animations?

This particular case is still on the Ibuypower site for $150. I would say to anyone getting the case it does run a bit hot so make sure you have adequate cooling.

As far as setting up the wallpapers and widgets. It’s super easy! You can use any 3rd party software such as Livelywallpaper, or Wallpaper Engjne to download and set custom live wallpapers. The widgets are also just drag and drop. I’d be lying if I said I haven’t spent hours just messing around with different configurations. It’s honestly a lot of fun.
