Coolest ROTM yet. Massive kudos to you Božo, all you need now is a nice long hidden display cable and some wireless peripherials.

Came here to say the same thing. My favorite PCs are the ones that are far from conventional. Aside from the radio tuner, is there anything not used? It's kinda hard to tell based on the things listed and the photos. I wonder if you could use the radio tuner for a manual overclock. It might be a little gimmicky, but, I think it'd be a real riot to open up CPU-Z and see your CPU go from 3.88GHz to 4.08GHz when you rotate the dial from 88-108MHz. Nobody else could say their PC does that.

This is wicked cool. Totally my aesthetic, wood and copper and old HiFi. I was hoping the knobs would be functional, and they delivered.

Dated hardware, but my god, that's awesome use of an old HiFi! Kudos, winner!

The nice thing is most of those parts should be easy to swap out. Unlike a lot of highly-custom mods, there's nothing especially tricky about the way this one is set up.

Wow, that looks better than Rita Heyworth.

Back in it's heyday Sanyo made excellent stereos.

Sick modding here mate. I love the way you use this hi-fi equipment to be part of your pc or was it the other way around! And of course the Noctua fan is cool, still with it's color and also the colors of the graphics card wow, respect!

I absolutely loved this build. Unique and features that would appeal to an adult for a change. Nice job on this build!

What you talking about, I got my Sony Hi-Fi from year 2000 plugged into my Smart TV with a toslink cable! 2 channel quality 'cinema' sound, but it's true I don't use the cassette deck anymore!

And here's me with my old 80's Sony Hi-Fi hooked up to a "smart" TV via 3.5mm to stereo adapter

Very cool! That calculator looks like a TI SR-56. I still have one myself although I rarely use it now. I used to write little programs for it on occasion, before I had a computer. 😉

I thought it looked like a TI-30. 🙂 I just had it hit me kids don't really use calculators anymore do they? I still have a TI-85 laying around here somewhere.

@Božo Kaurić Great to see that x58 is still going strong there. I also have a x58 system (Asus P6T Deluxe v2) with a Xeon X5680 @ 4.4 GHz (upgraded from a i7 920 @ 4.0 GHz) but in your case a Xeon is not an upgrade as your 970 has 6 cores and 12 threads already. Anyway, great build!

Sorry, but 'quality cinema sound' is not HI-FI (neither technically nor aesthetically).

Perhaps, but if you're on a budget, you're going to get a much better sounding system if you stick to a 2.1 system. Especially if you don't have the space to properly set up full home theatre surround sound in which case a 5.1 or 7.1 is almost completely wasted money imho.
