After confirming Monstie's final configuration with Boss Tan,
a special trip was made to the birth place of most PCs in Malaysia,
Lowyat Plaza.
Monstie is a really special PC... hence unlike most PC,
it was personally assembled by its creator
After 4 hours and 3 pairs of super sore-feet,
monstie's organs were purchased
(Monstie's body part pictures will be uploaded later : paiseh, it's in another camera)
Monstie's Motherboard
*I honestly think that the motherboard
looked like a mini city...
See properly ah..
You can see schools, factories, housing area,
police stations, power station, etc...
Look under a microscope...
you'll probably see cars and humans moving..
Can See or not??
If the motherboard is the city..
I would assume that this is the POWER house?
Empty casing of Monstie
According to Elliot...
It was once every PC creator's dream PC casing.
and now it's Monstie's!

Lessons Learnt from Monstie's Birth
For some reason, watching Elliot configure and assemble the PC
reminds me of the scripture in Pslams 139:13-14
"For you formed my inward parts;
you knitted me together in my mother's womb.
I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
Wonderful are your works;
my soul knows it very well."
Getting a PC as how it is.. and creating it...
has a total different feeling altogether.
That's probably why we humans can't
comprehend how special we are to God...
However, through this experience..
I guess there is an increase of understanding of 0.00001%
to what it means to be "fearfully and wonderfully made.."
1. Fearfully Made
Even as Elliot configure, I could hear him constantly
him going through the possibilities that it will be truly functional
and when all parts were placed together, would they be able to work together as one
"eh.. this cannot.. " then he start sourcing for another option
Fearfully made: God made sure all our parts work: even our emotions
2. Wonderfully Made
Monstie is a Media PC & a Server.
It was meant super duper fast when rendering videos
It was meant super duper fast when rendering videos
and keep all soft copy of files and documents safely.
It was configured to function its best in achieving those functions.
It is not a gaming PC, a normal desktop PC.. or a sole devoted server PC.
It's unique as what it is..
There is an "AWE" feeling when I looked at Monstie..
Wonderfully Made: unique, non other than you,
everyone of us is configured to reach a specific dream and purpose
3. God knows everything there is about YOU!
Since I wanted to post about Monstie.. I asked Elliot to list down the specification of Monstie.
And it took him less than 1 minute to list down everything...
It has 3200GB Space,
8GB 800Mhz ram,
an overclocked Quad core processor at 2.8Ghz,
Gigabyte Ultra Durable 3 P45 motherboard,
Creative Audigy Sound Card,
CM 690 chasis (casing)
Logitech G1 gaming keyboard & mouse
Xigmatek Red Scorpion CPU cooling
ATI Radeon HD4670 512MB DDR4 graphic card
Corsair HX520 Modular power supply
Viewsonic 22" 1080p ful HD widescreen monitor
Edifier M3300 2.1 soundsystem
He knows everything it is about this PC!!!
Shi: "WALAU, you can remember?"
Elliot: "Of course, i configured it wad? hehe"
HAHA.. don't we sound stupid when we tell God that He doesn't understand..
Pslams 139: 15-16
"My frame was not hidden from you,
when I was being made in secret,
intricately woven in the depths of the earth.
Your eyes saw my unformed substance;
in your book were written, every one of them,
the days that were formed for me,
when as yet there was none of them."
Simple things in life.. powerful lessons.
