My setup is everything, I use my computer at least once a day to browse the internet, work on projects, even update this website, so it's very important that everything works perfectly and the fastest it can. Obviously this machine is probably a little too powerful for someone that does almost primarily software development, but it means when I want to do things like video editing, 3D modeling, or anything else that would require a high end computer, I can, because my computer is equipt to handle it.

Over the years, my setup has evolved from a single monitor i5 machine, to a triple monitor AMD FX-based monster of a computer.

This generation of my build was in response to an updated workflow. I'd recently started working on 3D modeling, and found the wonderful world that is PC gaming, and needed something slightly more powerful. It hasnt changed much since I originally built it, besides storage. The CPU cooler was changed from a 120mm AiO to an air cooler to stop things overheating, and the case was changed so I could fit more stuff in, like a few more drives.

Recently, I've been using linux more and more, and have switched this machine to Arch Linux. But some days I miss my windows-only applications and games, so I'm going to be using a virtual machine running windows, with a graphics card hardware pass-through to it, so I can run windows applications, and play windows-only games. The best of both worlds! I got the idea for doing this from a video [TekSyndidate](https://www.youtube.com/user/razethew0rld) made, which is by far the single greatest example of tech wizzardry i've ever seen. You can find the video [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=16dbAUrtMX4).

## Previous Generations
The first generation of this was the first custom build i'd ever done. When I first built this, I wasn't really into gaming, programming, or any kind of heavy workflow for that matter, so this build isn't particullly powerful, although compared to my old [Dell Inspiron 1525](http://www.pcworld.com/product/31104/dell-inspiron-1525.html), it was pretty damn incredible!

You can find the full list of parts over on the PCPartPicker link below. Unfortunately due to the lack of catalog, or bad memory on my part, not all the parts are there, but there are as many as possible.

The server itself is a VPS hosted by [Inception hosting](https://clients.inceptionhosting.com/aff.php?aff=256). Obviously if I did more looking around I could probably find a slightly better deal, but these people have brilliant customer support, fast and customizable servers, that are also hosted in a data center in the UK (a major bonus)!

The spec on this server are nothing special, but considering it wouldn't be running much, other than a web server, and a couple of other applications, it's pleanty. The most important thing is that it is hosted in the UK, for connection speed, and for other applications like a VPN.

My setup is much more of a project than something that is stable and constant. I am constantly upgrading, and changing things, whether it's on my main machine (which most of it is), my desk at work, or just a standard upgrade to my phone. As I use technology every day, for many, __Many__ hours, I need it to work brilliantly, and not hold me back from anything I want to do.
As well as my main desk, there are a few other machines I use often, namely my laptop, work rig, and my phone. All of which follow the same criteria of not holdng me back from what I wantever to do.
