Bob_c_b inspired me to clean out my case earlier this month, this was the best I could do:

It looked cleaner closed:

It was all looking good until I plugged it all in. Smoke started rising out of the motor and basically it blew out.

I was forced to wait until the next payday, which was the 15th. So upset. Payday came by and I decided to get a nice Antec case.

The PSU in this one totally owns my old Raidmax one.

So I went from this:

To this:

Thanks. I designed those when I was 12 and built them with my father.

I like your new desks, congrats!

Is that a cheiftech case? If yes, how is it? Could you take pics of the inside? I'm thinking of getting one of those.

That particular case is made by ULTRA although it is almost identical to cheiftech models. The only difference between the cheiftechs and my ultra is the ultra has a gloss black front bezel and the entire chassis is made out of steel (i found aluminum to be too flimsy).

This review has some good pics http://www.driverheaven.net/reviews/UltraCase/

Is that an original lucasfilm THX poster I see in the background??

yup.

looks much better now ;)

Feels much better too, since my old desk wasnt a computer desk at all, it was very cramped.

    • Why? Does anybody actually want this? The constant need to close all browser sessions and wait for a new version to install, just so that there’s a integrated coupon manager feels like a waste of everyone’s time

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates by Paul Hill Microsoft has just announced that starting with Edge 152, it will be moving to a two-week release cycle for faster, smaller updates. This faster release cadence will begin on August 27. This change comes just several months after Microsoft switched Visual Studio Code to weekly updates. The company said that the Extended Stable releases will remain on an eight-week cycle and that no admin changes are needed to experience the faster release cycle on the Stable channel. The new two-week release cycle will enable the faster delivery of security updates and platform improvements, all while reducing the size and complexity of individual updates. Microsoft claims that organizations will benefit from this change as it offers predictable validation cycles. For organizations that prefer a “more deliberate pace”, the Extended Stable channel remains an option. This change will affect Edge Stable releases on Windows, macOS, Linux, and mobile. The Extended Stable channel will continue to be updated every eight weeks, or every fourth Stable release, for example: versions 152, 156, 160, and 164. The Extended Stable could be a good option for organizations that don’t want the latest updates twice a month and don’t want as much hassle constantly updating browsers. In the case of Visual Studio Code, many of the updates being pushed by Microsoft are AI-related. As we all know, Microsoft Edge has a lot of AI features, so we could see Microsoft pushing more AI, thanks to the faster cycles. On the flip side, quicker releases could mean faster security updates, which is beneficial in a world where AI systems are hunting for software exploits. What do you think? Let us know in the comments. For more updates on Edge, be sure to follow Neowin's coverage. In May alone, we reported on Edge offering in-browser pop-ups to assist users with website compatibility issues, that Edge was losing Copilot Mode, and that Microsoft had fixed a plain-text password bug in Edge.

    • not yet, because at the moment it is not a threat to MS, if and I mean if it did become a threat to MS Office, then it may be a different thing. MS don't like competition
