Just built my new computer yesterday, and yes I know, I need to update my sig. Too lazy at the moment.

Intel Core 2 Duo E6600

Asus P5B Deluxe WiFi edition

Corsair Twin XMS2 2x1GB DDR2-800 5-5-5-12

eVGA e-GeForce 8800GTS 640MB

Creative X-Fi Xtrememusic

2x320GB Seagate 7200.10 SATA II

Pioneer DVR-110D DVD-RW

Antec Super Lanboy Case

OCZ GameXStream 700W

This is my very first self-built computer. I hope my cable management is acceptable.

The double post is more of a bios "ASUS" option they built in, thing is its hard on your HD's when it does that. Lot of people blew a cork over it so they changed it with newer bios.

If you ever flash your bios, use the utility built in the bios under Tools.

With Lanboys I usually pull all the messy cables out on the motherboard side of the case and then just stuff them in that little space left by the case screw compartment. Also putting the hard drives in the right way will hide those cables a lot better.

awesome same case as mine:D its the best case ever :D

^isn't what he did with the hds the right way? i have my hds that way also.

No, flip them around so the cables are not facing the viewable side. Thats what I mentioned the first time but he said he liked being able to see them.

MRK had his backwards as well, I guess it's a personal preference.

I would rather have them hidden.

    • SpaceX has secured a significant cloud-services deal with Google, agreeing to a monthly payment of $920 million for computing power.  This agreement, covers approximately 110,000 NVIDIA GPUs and other components.... https://cio.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/investments/google-to-buy-computing-from-spacex-at-920-million-per-month/131543026    
    • no thanks is overpriced and its not the fastest ram neither.
    • It is, but it also has a bad performance reputation even on high-end gaming PCs. Some people say it's the engine's fault, others say it's the games developers' fault, who knows... At the end of the day, for the average gamer, the take is this: PC game with Unreal Engine 5? Be affraid and cross your fingers, it's a 50/50 chance.
    • 25th anniversary Xbox Series X unveiled with classic translucent green design by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The Xbox Games Showcase had a new Xbox console reveal from Microsoft celebrating the gaming brand turning 25 years old. This is to be a new limited edition Xbox Series X and controller collection that draws on the design of the rare green version of the original Xbox console. The "XBOX Series X25 Limited Edition" is coming out later this year with its matching controller. "Inspired by the look and feel of the original XBOX console, both the console and controller feature a translucent OG Green design, with subtle tributes to the journey we’ve been on together," said Microsoft in the announcement. The Xbox Series X|S line has received several new variants over the years, but this will be the first edition with a translucent design. The Xbox Series X25 will have one terabyte of internal storage and a green light on the X to signify the console lines' history. There is a 25th anniversary logo printed on the front plate. Microsoft is also teasing that the community will be able to find "a few hidden surprises throughout" the machine as well. As for the new X25 Special Edition Xbox controller, this is also coming with the classic translucent green design for its front and back plates. "From the original ABXY colors, to the timeless green, every detail calls back to the beginning, including the bumpers honoring the original black and white buttons on the original “Duke” controller," says the company about this release. "The back case and battery door are fully transparent, revealing the classic XBOX logo." The XBOX 25th anniversary collection, containing both the translucent console and controller, will be available for purchase in November 2026 as a limited-edition release. Microsoft will be offering the new XBOX Wireless Controller X25 Special Edition separately as well. Pricing details and pre-order information will be coming later.
