I've had all my components for a while now. I have been hesitant to jump to the new system since I do use my computer quite a bit. I use it for business, and want to minimize the downtime and potential issues that it may bring. However, I am hoping to make the change this coming weekend.

Before doing so, I wanted to get everything else set and ready to go. To have a little fun, and make this build a little different, I wanted to try a caseless build. This simply means you don't put all your components in a computer case. I decided to mount mine to the back wall of my desk's hutch. Its kind of nerdy and IMO cool looking. I used my 3d printer to make a framework for the motherboard to mount to. It then clips around the hutch's back board and has legs to hold it up.
