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.

    • Agreed. And this is a great discount offer! It's a shame that there's no discount offer option for people who would be fine subscribing for a year-long term, but pay monthly.
    • A Warhammer 40K racing game and a chess roguelike are free to claim on the Epic Games Store by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The Epic Games Store has returned to its standard giveaway procedures after weeks of mystery freebies. The latest drop is replacing last week's Rogue Waters and Songs of Conquest games and has brought in a double giveaway offering Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks and The Ouroboros King. As always, the game is yours to add permanently to your Epic Games Store library within the next seven days. From the duo, Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks lands from developer Caged Element, and it's a racing game that was only released last year. The title has you piloting Ork buggies, tanks, and aircraft modeled after the popular tabletop miniatures. The focus is on multiplayer mayhem, offering multiple game modes that have you fighting other players as everyone tries to survive and get across finish lines or destroy mechs. Crossplay support between PC and consoles has now arrived as part of a free update, too, giving a boost to matchmaking times for this multiplayer-focused title. If racing carnage isn't your thing, then The Ouroboros King offers tactics. The indie title is a mashup of chess and standard roguelike experience, letting players create their own armies to defeat an enemy faction, all on the familiar checkered board. There is a procedurally generated map, pieces with special abilities, relics that bend the game's rules to make overpowered builds, and more. The newly available Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks and The Ouroboros King giveaways on the Epic Games Store are set to run until June 11, giving PC gamers seven days to claim the latest offer. Once this closes out, a new freebie will take its place on the same day. Don't forget that mobile gamers can check out the Epic Game Store's weekly giveaways on Android and iOS to grab a freebie there as well.

    • The most consequential argument in technology right now is not about which model is smartest or which chip is fastest. It is about whether the entire enterprise is a generational revolution or the largest financial bubble ever inflated — and the unsettling answer, increasingly, is that it may be both at once.,,,, https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318138/20260610/ai-revolution-ai-bubble-trillion-dollar-question-splitting-wall-street-silicon-valley.htm This is a very good read.  For what it is worth, I agree with the answer to the question.
