This little fucker I've been working on has finally been finished.
I do not want to admit how long I have spent waiting for the obscure parts I ordered to get this to work but hey.
I need to know what I should feed the beast.

You folks seem like you would have the worst ideas for any upgrades or purposes I should give this thing
If your interested the specs are here
- intel i5-4670s (4t4c 3.1ghz)
- 16GB DDR3 1600mhz (I lied in the video)
- awful Kingston ssd because god is dead
- Nvidia qaudro K2200
If your wondering how I setup the GPU without an x16 pcie slot then your gonna hate me.
There is an MXM slot for a laptop GPU but those fuckers are expensive, so my train of thought was I can get a cheap x16 GPU so I just need to jam that fucker into it. So I did some digging on AliExpress and things, discovering you can take the mini Pcie slots for WiFi cards and jam a USB adapter in it, jerry rig that to a GPU extender.
All of this is shown below

So yeah, USB GPU.
It's so beautifully cursed and I love it <3
