Nice "rebuild"!! Can't wait to finally get all the parts in to start assembly on mine... :biggrin:

Hey Sal, Sorry it took me so long to reply. It has been a crazy month at work. Hope the dog enjoyed it's delivery...lol Looks like parts are starting to flow again and pricing is starting to stabilize a bit. I am slowly still ordering and receiving parts for the build...still a lot of pieces to go! Just today I came home to a delivery on the porch consisting of the ST100 Headphone Stand, MM800 Mousepad, and K95 Platinum Keyboard. A little miffed for the K95 being in factory box with a mailing label stuck on it and sitting right out in plain site on the porch. At $200.00 you would think it would have been properly boxed for shipment... Mat

usna92 - Spot on with your comment. Just my luck to start this build right at the beginning of the pandemic. I have the 1000D, Motherboards, SFX600 PSU, and a slew of parts for the cooling loops on hand so far, but have backed off placing any further orders until things calm down a bit. My wife now laughs at me for "Window Shopping" on Amazon every few days...lol

Thanks for the warm welcome - Zotty. Your Build Log and iCue documents were a major part of my decision to do a 1000D build. Thank you for all of your knowledge and especially the iCue drawings. I am sure I will have some questions along the way at some point and look forward to sharing the adventure with any interested. The forums here are one of the best I have experienced anywhere on the Internet. Hey Sal, Your not alone with Amazon issues "Down Under"...although not quite as bad here in the States. Delivery times are significantly extended and prices are rising fairly quickly. Pricing is probably due to resupply issues of new inventory and should resolve fairly quickly if businesses can come back online in the near future. (Long breathe hold here...) Mat

My company also stood down over 80% of our employees as well. Only senior foremen and above are still working. Thankfully, many of the buildings we maintain nationwide are closed as well so the work load is not crazy at the moment. In fact I have been lucky and been able to work on a factory project just 20 miles from my house the last few weeks. A normal week has me driving 800 to 1000 miles one way on Monday and then working my way back home by Friday. Can hardly wait to start this build, but part deliveries have been slowed to a crawl at the moment. Mat

Your new build is coming right along. That case design is really neat with the way they designed the pull-out interior chassis and the fact that it allows for conventional layout and parts install. My first impression at seeing the case fresh out of the box, was that they had created a monster where the parts installs were going to be at all kinds of crazy angles...lol Mat

Nice!...Looks like something from a "Transformers" movie set. How efficient is the design as far as accessing the interior spaces for parts installation? Mat

Just a "wild" guess here, but sounds to me that Tarkov and ICUE are fighting for the same memory address in your RAM. Not up to current programming standards these days, but many years ago programmers could control how and where code loaded in RAM. Conversely, I have had issues where two programs tried to call on a .dll file at the same time, resulting in severe conflict issues as well. Either of the above may be worth looking at. Hope this helps somewhat. Mat

Appreciate your comment, Sal, and hope you all come through this pandemic unharmed. I am lucky at the moment to be still classified as an essential employee here in the US as a facility engineer, so I am still working generating the money for this build. The case is indeed a beast and I am spending my time awaiting part orders trying to plan for the years ahead and finding a suitable platform to keep this thing on that can also be moved easily. Final build-out looks to top out somewhere between 150 and 200 pounds. I will indeed keep an eye on your thread as well! Mat

Command Modern Air/Naval Operations is a current game that relies more on CPU power than GPU...

The wife finally gave me permission to build a dream rig for my upcoming retirement...:biggrin: I have been in and out of the desktop computer scene since the early 1980's. My very first system was a Radio Shack TRS-80 Model 4D. Boy, have computers come a very long way since then. After a lot of research I have decided this will be a dual system build in the Corsair 1000D chassis. What a beast. As soon as it arrived I realized I am going to have to completely redesign my home office to house it... The system specs so far are: System 1 EVGA Z390 Dark Motherboard Intel i7-9700K CPU Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB DDR4-3200 RAM (32GB) EVGA GeForce RTX 2080 Super FTW3 Hydro Copper Gaming 8GB GPU Corsair AX1600i Titanium Power Supply Corsair MP510 1920GB M.2 (x2) Seagate Barracuda Pro Computer 10TB HDD (x3) Seagate Barracuda Compute 2TB SATA SSD (x3) Microsoft Windows 10 Pro System 2 EVGA H370 Stinger Motherboard Intel i7-9700K Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB DDR4-3200 RAM (32GB) EVGA GeForce RTX 2080 Super FTW3 Hydro Copper Gaming 8GB GPU Corsair SFX600 Platinum Power Supply Corsair MP510 1920GB M.2 Seagate Barracuda Pro Computer 10TB HDD (x2) Seagate Barracuda Computer 2TB SATA SSD (x3) Microsoft Windows 10 Pro Custom hardline cooling utilizing Alphacool components. Custom wiring and sheathing utilizing MDPC-X components. Photos of build start coming next post. Pandemic has me waiting on some of the parts still.
