You can find an older wired VR headset for cheap in the used market. Or even a Q2 if you are feeling fancier. Apart from lenses and resolution they are functionally identical to newer ones.

My first game was Superhot VR and I instantly fell in love.

Probably the fact that they have many ISOs tailored for each supported hardware configuration, and they point the user to the right ISO with a clear wizard in their download page.

Also basically it is an unbreakable gaming focused OS very close to SteamOS, that you don't have to maintain, and it comes preconfigured with Steam and the right drivers for your setup. I'm not the target audience, but I see the appeal.

I've just bought a few pack of these 8x8x500 sticks. And yes I tried some wood glue from the hardware store and they simply stuck very well to the PETG prints.

From the top:

  • 3 Chinese 2.5Gbit managed switches branded Horaco
  • 3 Chinese N100 "NAS" ITX boards (the cheaper green ones). They are in a Proxmox hyperconverged cluster (HCI)... aka Proxmox + Ceph.
    • Each one has a Pico PSU
    • a PCIE card (mounted on an right angle PCIE extender) with 2 additional 2.5Gb realtek NICs
    • 2 NVMe drives (mirrored boot drives)
    • a SATA SSD for Ceph
  • an empty shelf for a ITX board (an AM4 with a bunch of NVMe drives I have yet to move from my previous rack)
  • the last shelf can accomodate:
    • an automotive power distribution that feeds 12V to the switches and the N100 boards
    • a couple of 12V to USB PD boards, that I use to power the type c devices on the Rack shelves on the back
    • a (missing) TFX PSU that will power the AM4 board
    • a second TFX PSU that feeds 12V into the distribution blocks and powers basically anything else.

I also have some rack shelves on the back:

Needless to say I bought everything before the DRAM craze and I feel very sad for who has to work with the current market.

Everything is mounted on custom 2U or 3U 3D printed 10" rack shelves.

 

After designing this minicase I immediately knew I wanted to apply the same design language to my rack.

It features drawers (front only), cable channels on the sides, rack rails on both front and back, removable side panels, a door with fan mounts and magnetically removable dust filters.

It needs some polishing before sharing the STL, but I think it already looks pretty nice.
