Such a brilliant case. Has helped drop temps 5 degrees idle (39-40 degrees) and 10-15 degrees under load depending on application.

Great setup, and new case, I thinking about change on this case too from my Antec 1200, but in some reviews they talking about not best from intake airflow, Are you cut front mesh around fan ?

btw. I see Vileda cloth on the top of case using same cloth too ;) they are great to remove dust.

It certainly is good at removing dust :p I use it to keep my k750 keyboard dust free and gloss fronted monitor!

I have cut the mesh grille yes, to test to see how much extra airflow comes in.

Airflow is good either way though.

do you notice much different temps with this cuteted front mesh, is worth ?

I think I will buy this case and also I will change fans for Coolermasters, but temps I think will be higher on my parts in this case a little bit than in my current Antec 1200.

First of all, that guy with the Corsair case, awesome rig and awesome office! Very impressive, and for everyone else, great setups and really good ideas for design!

Here is mine as of a couple of months ago, I've moved recently but it is very similar. I built this rig for a couple reasons, to "hopefully" play BF3 on high settings, and give my brother my old rig to also play BF3 (likely medium settings on his :D) - My specs are in my not so awesome signature, and I'm soon to add 4 more gigs of the same XMS3 sticks for more BF3 friendliness. I'm also ready to slap another 6950 on dual x16 slots for BF3 if its required but no legit required specs yet so we'll find out soon!

My setup(s) (with my wonderful cheap desk that has a bow in it). I want an L-Desk for all my equipment, but waiting until my wife and I move to a bigger house. Custom rig with 25" HP LED Monitor and a 13" Macbook Pro (Mid-2010).

your mouse looks like a bong :p

btw we have the same desk, but mine has the corner piece, and other section to form a l shape desk.

nice desk, i got the entire thing for $50 from some guy who was desperate to move to a new house :p

lol :D I have the whole set, but I don't really have room in this house to make it an L so the desks are scattered around (my brother also has a set, and I have one of his tables in my room lol). For $50 you got a deal :D

To the dude slightly above this post: nice upgrade :D Those antec cases are boring lol.

Also: An Envy!! OOOH! I wanted one of those and ended up with a Vaio instead. Wish I had bought the Envy lol. HP screwed up on my order bigtime and ended up giving me a big credit, but I couldn't wait any longer after that >>

My new deskspace at newly rebuilt house

As with many setups, it's a shame about the cables. I wish "they'd" invent a good way of hiding them or at least come up with decent cable management in all desks sold.

    • Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Only a few weeks ago, Sega and Creative Assembly dropped a teaser for a new Alien Isolation. Today at Summer Game Fest, Alien: Isolation 2 was officially announced with a new trailer while also confirming a whole lot of information about the setting of this survival horror project. Check out the reveal trailer above. Leaving behind the Sevastopol space station, the sequel will take players to a remote colony world. With a Xenomorph (or more) on the loose, players will be navigating both the surface of the weather-ravaged planet as well as "the claustrophobic confines of the Weyland-Yutani outpost of Kurosaki Station." Interestingly, Creative Assembly is leaving behind Amanda Ripley, the daughter of Alien's Ellen Ripley, as the protagonist too. While it hasn't confirmed a name yet, players will be taking the role of a new character for this new adventure. The setting is also being described as a new hunting ground for the Alien. This will have players improvising and developing new tools to aid in their survival and escape, all to avoid "cinema’s deadliest killer." "It has been over a decade since we created the original Alien: Isolation and I am so excited to show everyone the first glimpse of the sequel," says Al Hope, Creative Director at Creative Assembly. "Our dedicated Survival team at Creative Assembly has been working hard to create a new, evolved Isolation experience continuing the legacy of the Alien franchise, making the eponymous killer smarter, the environment harsher and the chance of survival slimmer." Promising the same deadly tension from the original from over a decade ago, Alien: Isolation 2 is in development for PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced yet.

      With how far Tim Apple's head has been up Trump's ass, there's no way this was done reluctantly.

      Like the article stated, it's written completely from scratch, unlike the umpteen Chromium clones. It got its start as the browser built-in to the also written-from-scratch SerenityOS.
    • CANT FIND SECURE BOOT ON BIOS

      By goretsky · Posted

      Hello, From looking at the screen shots in your motherboard's manual at https://endownload.colorful.cn/EnDownload/MotherBroard/2022/Intel 600/Manual/Intel 600 Series BIOS English/Intel 600 Series BIOS User Guide.pdf, you go to the ADVANCED option at the top of the BIOS (UEFI) menu, then select SECURITY in the list of options on the left.  From there  you can enable and set the Secure Boot mode. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
