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).

HP Envy 14 (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 >>

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.

    • Google are hyprocrites for signing this. They have been pulling the same dirty tactics as Microsoft, only they do it on Android and ChromeOS.
    • In some countries the law has forced Microsoft to display a menu on a fresh install of Windows which asks which web browser you want and it will install that browser. This doesn't add any bloat to Windows. It simply an additional step when setting up a new PC.
    • Chrome is also a first party browser on Android and ChromeOS. And on those systems, Google is pulling the same dirty tactics as Microsoft does on Windows.
    • Unofficial script lets you install unreleased Windows 11 features without Microsoft Account by Sayan Sen Microsoft has been steadily evolving the Windows Insider Program over the years, introducing new channels and testing paths that allow enthusiasts to experience upcoming and yet-to-be-released Windows features (some interesting hidden ones too) before they reach the public. However, one long-standing requirement has remained largely unchanged as users are generally expected to enroll in the Program and with a Microsoft account. That's where a third-party tool called "OfflineInsiderEnroll" can help. OfflineInsiderEnroll is said to be a lightweight script that enables access to Windows Insider Program builds on systems that are not signed in with a Microsoft account. Essentially the tool configures the necessary Insider settings locally and hence allows users to select and switch between available preview channels while continuing to receive builds through the normal Windows Update channel. If you are wondering how it manages to do so, it is made possible by a Registry value known as TestFlags. When configured to"0x20", Windows stops communicating with Microsoft's online Insider enrollment services thus preventing locally configured Insider settings from being overwritten. This allows the script to apply its own channel configuration directly through the Registry as Windows Update does not verify whether a device has been officially enrolled in the Insider Program or not. Previously the utility has had already supported the traditional Insider branches including Dev, Beta, and Release Preview. However following Microsoft’s recent restructuring of its preview channels, the script has now been updated. The latest OfflineInsiderEnroll version, 2.6.6, adds support for the newly introduced Insider channel lineup. As such, users can now choose from several Experimental channels in addition to Beta and Release Preview options. The update also retains tools for refreshing the Insider cache, resetting Insider settings, and completely stopping Insider enrollment when needed. Keep in mind though that will need elevated privileges when running the script (run as Admin). You can get the latest version of OfflineInsiderEnroll from this page on its official GitHub repo.
