Post your PCs specs c:

Ever since I became a shut-in, tinkering is one of the few things I can do to keep myself busy. Nowadays my setup isn't a single PC, so much as it's a network of computers providing different services.

Is there a reason that these are all sperate machines? :o
I'm reasonably sure you could do all this with one

Aye, there's a few. I like to keep my web server separate from the media server as an extra layer of security, and run my VPN on the Pi since installation was a no-brainer. As for the Kodi box and media server, the former needs to slip covertly into a TV stand, and the latter sits inside an ugly mangle of wires.

The biggest reason, however, is purely due to aesthetics. I had a daydream once of spending long nights surrounded by humming machines and dim screens, a sea of cables coiled around my feet. Of course, they said to be careful what you wished for.

Hyeah~, no kiddin'... VR is kinda integral to my mental health these days, so I wanted somethin' that would utterly smash VR Chat and whatever else for years to come. I call it a gaming PC, but it's really more of an investment in myself.
