My Coolermaster CM690-II case has a hole in the back. When I had an AM3 motherboard it didn't match with the actual CPU. I thought - "Ah it must be in the right place for just Intel boards"...

Swapped to P67 motherboard, and it still doesn't fit.

It is a pain in the bum having to remove the board whenever you change a cooler

 

Depends on the fan and if it's tastefully done or not

 

i wouldnt say they are chavvy lol. chavs couldnt build computers and most wouldnt know what an 'led' is. i think it was the craze back in the days but its just old now and people prefer the more subtle professional look. i know i do.

heres my pc bulid i buit it about a year an half ago

 

Sorry, I just don't like it. Reminds me of a childs bedroom and those kids in the McDonalds car park with their neon lights under their cars.

 

Here is a build I completed just last week. Quite happy with it all:-

 

It is and yes it is pretty big

 

I've had it for few months, getting 8gigs more RAM soon, upgrading the PSU from HX650 to HX850, gettin rid of most of the HDDs as I'm building NAS/Server.

 

this is my current rig except i now have a G1 Guerilla mobo in it thanks to the guys at Kustom pc's and Gigabyte UK

 

Couple of teaser pics from my new build, spec in sig.

 

Behold the magnificence!

Windows 98se
Epox EP-6VBA
Pentium 3 667mhz
3DFX Voodoo 3 3000
3x 256MB 133mhz SDRAM
2GB hard drive















POWER!!!

 

haha. what ever happened to Epox?

 

Are you kidding me

 

I'm not going to quote the images but hell my parents bought a Tiny Computer a few years before they went under or became Time (I dont remember which) Biggest piece of zit ever. £2k wasted on junk software and a system that could barely run windows.

But on the bright side it lasted years lol After lots of system restores and reinstalls. My dad did those because he thought it was the best idea lol

This was before I knew anything about computers at all!

 

The PCB's look cool under UV

 

I still have my TINY PC right here under my desk!

 

Using it for a different purpose then? lol Foot stool maybe? Or a server?

 

Just sits there buried under a VideoCD player, old CD software (remember them?) and other things I can't quite identify at the moment! Curious if it still works. Pretty sure I have Privateer 2 installed on it, wasn't that the game with Clive Owen?

 

I wouldnt know, and yes I remember CD Software, I once remember my dad coming home with a Dragon CD with loads of software on it and tried to install it onto a different computer. He asked me why wont the CD drive read the disk. I told him thats because the CD drive only reads CD's........You get the picture lol

Ok back on topic!

At some point I will post pics of the inside of my computer, but right now I can't be bothered to try and remove warranty stickers. Or decide if I should do it at all!

 

kids nowadays!!!!
